I bought TZ90 already from Carousell. Quite good deal and come with original warranty and extended warranty.

Seller very good, spent time explaining to me how to use.

i going to get camera next week...

Cant decide Canon PowerShot SX740 HS, Sony wx500 or COOLPIX A900

for smaller sensor, lower megapixel is better.

anyway i sold away my wx500 because not satisfied with the quality. Superzoom camera have 3.x f stop, so not suitable for low light. if you just take photo in the day should be ok.

TZ90 over my budget liao

sigh...so hard to make decision :(

currently, my shortlist
-nikon b500 $330
-nikon d3400 $549
-PowerShot SX740 HS $475

Nikon D3400 is what people recommended for entry level for beginner.

Another source is carousell...you are able to find cheap, decent camera...a lot of people buy liao, use few times then sell on that platform.

Need some help...

Want to get a digital camera... and kinda looking for those like DSLR kinda but cannot change lens. Think it's called bridge camera. My budget also around 600... but if good deal might be willing to spend slightly more.

Main reason is 1. I need a decent camera for holiday 2. I want to see if I want to invest in a proper DSLR in a few years time. So it's like a trial thing.

At the moment I am looking at the cannon sx60 hs and the Nikon p300. Both is 600+, Nikon on promo so also got free gift. But I am open to any other suggestions... me kinda newbie. So any help from pros will be great.

Kamsia!

they all belong to same range le..
i dont think other brand will provide gd image for low light.
if take outdoor during daylight really no issue. For indoor, i think die die must use flash.

UNLESS your cam got higher sensor, thn will provide gd image.

time for u to change? :s13:

Any idea where to see the first gen ones? Sony website don't have.

Thank you!
