New gear.

Posted on December 27, 2006 by Megan

I’m serious considering purchasing a new digital camera this week (digital slr – finally moving up!) – have my eye on the Olympus Evolt – which does everything I want it to, and feels really good in my hand when I pick it up (the Nikon D series is nice, but I have small hands, they feel too big in mine). I was looking at these in early fall and of course they have come down in price after xmas, making them a pretty good deal (there is an Evolt package with two lenses that comes in at $900 plus tax).

Does anyone out there have any objections to the Olympus cameras? Just wondering if some of you camera experts have an opinion on this….. Or any other suggestions. Thanks!

I just got a Pentax K10D and love it, but it’s more similar in size to the Nikons. Check out http://dpreview.com/ and especially the Sony A100 (formerly Minolta, so it’s compatible with Minolta’s older lenses) (http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/specs/Sony/sony_dslra100.asp).

Also, Kerrisdale Cameras has the E500 Kit on sale for $700; http://tinyurl.com/ygrscg

Are you around in the city sometime between now and the 4th? 🙂
