View Full Version : Which is better? eric espenida 10-03-2006, 05:04 PM Hi! im just a newbie here! i want to know which is better, i just found this site on dpreview and i just compared the canon S3 IS vs. the Fujifilm FinePix S5200 Zoom. btw, this is the link: http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/compare_post.asp?method=sidebyside&cameras=canon_s3is%2Cfuji_finepixs5200z&show=all hope you can help :Grin: Thank you! edu_singson 10-03-2006, 05:10 PM I would personally choose the S3 IS. It is newer, and has a lot more possibilities for accessories. Althought fujis are also great cameras. I had some Fujis also, user friendliness, lamang ang canon. Another great feature of the canon is the fill-in flash for backlit subjects. Another point to consider is the memory card. It would be much cheaper to use the Canon, kasi mas accessible yung extra memory. Ilan lang gumagamit the XD Card. Bonus features ng Canon yung flip out LCD! It will really help you compose your shots! Good luck! eric espenida 10-04-2006, 07:36 AM I would personally choose the S3 IS. It is newer, and has a lot more possibilities for accessories.

Have you considered the Sony R1? :) eric espenida 10-04-2006, 08:04 AM Eric, are your options limited to these 2 only? Have you considered the Sony R1? :) nope, i just saw this 2 in dp review, but im still looking w/c will be better for a newbie like me. :) Earl Gonzalez 10-04-2006, 08:35 AM nope, i just saw this 2 in dp review, but im still looking w/c will be better for a newbie like me. :) Get a prosumer DSLR instead then, IMO. :Grin: JOHNDEEYU 10-04-2006, 09:49 AM Get a prosumer DSLR instead then, IMO. :Grin: I would suggest that also. A lot of entry level DSLR with about the same price of highend Compact Digicam (like Canon S3IS and Finepix S5200). If you have the budget try olympus E500, pentax k100D, canon 350D and a lot more. Suggestion lang naman, it's always better to research a review like you did. I am an Oly E500 user by the way and I'm no advertising.:Grin: eric espenida 10-04-2006, 11:09 AM cool! noted, thanks! :Grin: |
