What strap you get depends on your own personal choice of what you like. Every time I bought a new camera I'd buy a strap for it at the same time that suits the weight of the camera (I absolutely ...

She may find those cameras too large, and may prefer something like an Olympus PEN instead. She should go shopping with you and try using the cameras you are suggesting...if a camera is comfortable ...

You can use a camera without changing any settings and putting it on full auto, but you are going to get average, mediocre photos. I remember cameras that only had one setting, whether the flash ...

Been using FourThirds since the E-300 dSLR, back in 2005.  I didn't want a Canikon dSLR, APS or full frame. I was even happier when the E-M5 came out (wasn't a fan of the PENs), and that's the one ...

I was forced to use a Canon dSLR at work, but my choice would be Olympus because it just produces better images (and that's what I use personally)!  I'll sometimes use my Olympus when I want ...

Unless you're talking about a cheap focus-free camera, it's NUTS to make a camera without AF in this day and age! UNLESS you're talking about a pro medium format camera...but a camera for 99% of ...
