 #1 New travel camera? Posted 08/12/2009 @ 07:40 |

Hey All
I hopefully off travelling for a while next year around South America, the states and Canada and will be looking at replacing my damaged panasonic compact with something a bit more serious. We'll be doing a lot of travelling, trains, buses, hiking, boarding, surfing etc so i am trying to avoid the weight and size of a DSLR and to be honest i'll only be dipping my toe in the manual controls anyway.
I've got a simple little pocketable compact which is good enough if we were heading out somewhere without a bag etc. But i was thinking of getting something a bit more capable to complement it.
My own research has rounded it down to:
Canon PowerShot SX20 IS
Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ35
Canon PowerShot S90
However i did like the look of the 4/3 camera's but wasnt sure they'd be worth the price?
Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF1
Olympus PEN E-P1 /E-P2
Can anyone comme or suggest some models for me to look at?
Thanks again
Hutch |

Check out the Lumix LX3... Awesome performance from a little package compared to similar models out there liker the Canon G10. 720HD movie mode, Leica lens, F2, and pretty decent performance to iso800/1600... and best of all 24mm equiv wide angle. |
