Camera: Stylus 750

I need a new digital camera just for myself that I can take with me wherever I go … been thinking of this one ever since I saw it in Wired mag. Available at JR for $319.

Vitals:

  • 7.1 MP
  • 5X optical zoom
  • image stabilization
  • ISO 1600
  • all-weather sealed
  • supposedly very nicely small

The problem: very slow start-up and lots of shutter lag between pictures. Hrm … need to keep looking. But I like that 5X optical zoom – very hard to get that in a compact!
