For me personally, I want a viewfinder. That limits the m43 selections a little bit. I'm not sure if $100 will get there.
thanks.
thanks. i am look at close to 200 for the camera with my trade in. image stabilization and auto focus is mandatory.
People are spoiled by IS. If you use proper technique slow handheld shots are possible without Image Stabilization. The following was shot at 0.14 sec with a Fuji S9000 without IS. In my opinion IS has made people a bit careless in their hand holding technique.
And with IS...you could have pushed the envelop even more. For those with less hand holding skill...IS can be a real game changer...especially when we get really old and our abilities start to age a bit
Thats a shame, the on/off switch was its weakness and hard to rectify, the seller should have told you, they must have known, hopefully willstay useable for a long while yet
I'm 78 and can hold a camera just as steady as when I was 18. Maybe slower because when I was young, I tended to be very hyper. That said IS is very useful, but my purpose was to show that a camera without IS can be handheld successfully at slow shutter speeds. The OP thought the camera would have to be used in daylight.And with IS...you could have pushed the envelop even more.

For those with the skill...it lets us push our skill well beyond what is normally possible without IS.
Sometimes it’s not just a matter of skill as some of us myself included, gradually lose the ability to handhold due to the ageing process. I can’t get away with anything like Tom achieved anymore but back in the day no problem.Oh well such is life .And with IS...you could have pushed the envelop even more.

That's great (but an A vs B comparison to prove will be hard
)...most in that age bracket can't ... though I often still think I can And even slower still with IS. Great stuff

Admittedly I am far healthier than 90% of people my age according to my doctor so my abilities won't be applicable to others.That's great (but an A vs B comparison to prove will be hard
Might be because everything off base iso falls apart pretty quickly. It's amazing how much more steady ones hands are when they are using a good low light camera.I'm 78 and can hold a camera just as steady as when I was 18.
