My Camera Hunting Session...

Woke up to a very soggy morning..no birds..no sun to glare at my eyes…twas wet everywhere..took me an hour and 50 minutes drive to the office..i repeat 1 Hr 50 min..but am not complaining..i knew it was gonna be those morning when u’ll arrive late…so no stress..n im really thankful to my other half for loaning his car..if I was in my car…by now my foot would be aching like mad…

Been camera hunting last weekend..been in n out of practically every camera shop in Sg Wang n BB plaza….comparing the deals..to conclude our camera hunting session..id say..the price of whichever model of any brands are relatively the same..so the key to it is get as much freebies in ur package..

Initially my aim was to but the Sony T10 which was portrayed in my previous entry..but thru our findings…T10 has been discontinued…n most of the sales person wud not recommend SONY as it is way over priced and the fact that u can get better deals n quality with other camera brands such as Canon, Nikon and Olympus…we did our own experiment where we compared the output in a Canon camera as compared to Sony..we rejected Sony straightaway…output seems blur n dark…

In the end I had my eyes for Canon Digital IXUS 850
one of the shop was offering it for RM1350…it was a Great deal considering it gave us 2G card, Mini tripod, Original Casing & Screen Protector….but then he came out with another camera Nikon COOLPIX S7, hubby wasn’t that interested thou at first…due to the simple design..but we played with it and compared it to Canon Digital IXUS 850…the output is relatively the same..only thing is u have to pay more for Canon IXUS 850. My hubby took a photo of my ring..n to our surprise..the NIKON COOLPIX S7 gave us a better output n the ring did not glare as to CANON..the same happened when we tried taking the photo of the downlight..no distortion or glare..and the best part is the price offered was RM960 with the same package. WaaaaaAaah….but we did’nt decide that day..hehheh because my SIL also wanted to buy a camera…

So yesterday…the three of us me..hubby & SIL..went to Sg Wang.. (throught the gap I researched n compared these two camera’s read reviews n all) my heart was on NIKON COOLPIX S7 coz I cud save almost RM400.. I cud like buy a pair of shades with that money!!!!!!!..n id still be getting the same quality of photo with NIKON. SIL also was very keen on my choice. We were about to settle for two of th S7 until the Sales Assistant (Supervisor actually) came out with NIKON COOLPIX S9 ...in BLUE..it was smaller, more compact n it’s like a mirror…we fell in love wif it....the only downside of it being compared to S7 was the Megapixel...S7= 7.1MP while
S9 =6.0MP..but they assured us that 1.1 MP output u can barely see the difference in the output..only if u decide to print ur photo’s more than 8R than u’ll need a bigger MP….in fact bigger than 7.1MP..n how often do u do that?...The price..RM850 with all the abovementioned package.

After much contemplating on the color..(BLUE OR SILVER) SIL took BLUE while me the latter coz hubby preferred SILVER….f/more it wud be confusing if we both owned the same color…and now we both are the proud owner of NIKON COOLPIX S9…heheh

*tips: if u guys intend to buy a camera..get 2G of memory card as u can stock loads of photo’s n this is essential specially wen ur on hols..n get a spare battery as the battery span of a camera insufficient again especially wen ur on hols…u get a good deal when on PWP..if u guys need help in getting the best deals for camera n phones too ring me up..i can try n get u the best deals..kkekek…

*it's been a while since i last saw my parents..during CNY hols...kinda miss them...the thot of them makes my eyes watery..never knew that when u have someone u love dearly by ur side u still missed those who r always a part of u this much...
