Cathy I just got it and have not used it that much. The price has
gone down to $ 399 It also came with Adobe Photoshop Elements
(software). I also like to take nature pictures and liked the 10x
optical zoom. You need a tripod at that setting.
I have a Minolta and a Cannon SLR film camera.
For those that have a digital and a film camera I have a question.
How many times have you looked at pictures you have taken a year ago?
For me none on film and all the time on digital. I have a MY Pictures
screen saver running
The 3000 was purchased before the 3020 or 3040 came out. The 3000 is
a 3.3 MP and the C-700 is a 2.1 MP. A 3.3 MP TIF picture is over 11
megs in size. I don't need that. A 1 meg jpeg picture prints out a
8x10 just fine for me.
Sales people always push for a higher price item. Buy what you need.
I don't think the even make 16 megs cards any more, too cheep.
