Meiying Posted September 15, 2009 #3 Share Posted September 15, 2009 I have been eyeing this camera all summer. Anyone have it? Any thoughts? If you have it, does it have the color accent/color swap feature? Thanks!:) A gal in my office bought this camera at BJ's on Friday. I think she said she paid around $250 for it. She brought the camera to my desk so I could read through the manual for her (I'm the camera geek here) - and I played with the camera and all it's fun settings for an hour or so. It's a nice camera. You'll be amazed at the zoom. It does not have the color swap option which I thought was odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JennyOkie Posted September 15, 2009 #4 Share Posted September 15, 2009 I don't have the camera you mentioned, the model I have is the SX10 IS. It's a little more expensive - I got mine for around $379. It does have Color Swap and I absolutely LOVE it. It has a ton of settings on it - I haven't used anything but Auto or Sport mode and have been thrilled with the pictures I've taken. I am a total amateur, this camera makes me look like a pro!

junebug8 Posted September 15, 2009 Author #5 Share Posted September 15, 2009 That is the one factor I don't like--no color option/swap.:mad: That makes me not want it but I like the price and the features. The 10is is really nice but a bit more than I want to spend. I really want a Canon for the color accent feature.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sue from Canada Posted September 17, 2009 #6 Share Posted September 17, 2009 I have been eyeing this camera all summer. Anyone have it? Any thoughts? If you have it, does it have the color accent/color swap feature? Thanks!:) I bought this camera last Feb. on sale for $239 CDN. The only thing I don't like is that there is no optical viewfinder and you really can't see what your shooting in bright sunlight. My friend, who was born with a camera in her hand (she's Japanese) also bought this camera a few months ago. She just came back from vacation and told me that when zooming in on a focal point, she'd loose sight and have to zoom back out and in again (hit and miss theory). It's a bit intimidating at first (and I'm "technically challenged") but if you play around with it.... Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not too techo-savvy with regard to cameras, so any input will be appreciated. Also - what is color swap?:o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also - what is color swap?:o I just bought a Fuji Finepix S1500 camera with 10mp, 12X optical zoom on sale in Canada for $179. And it has an optical viewfinder!!! I'm really useless looking for a moving target via the LCD. Anyway, I really like the camera and it's pretty easy to use. ' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
