my T7 was stolen, Im now looking to upgrade,which cam do i go for?

I need a new replacement. Pretty open minded. Im tempted by the Samsung NV10, but not sure as ive read mixed reviews. I dont really want anything larger than the NV10. Im not really a camera expert so i tended not to use all the functions and adjusments on the T7. Theres so much choice out there, please help!!

Hi Rachel,

Sorry to hear about your stolen camera.

The NV10 has sort of a split critical consensus--lots of people love its design and features, but have issues with the quality of images it puts out. Check out the reviews at Amazon for an example of this sort of reaction.

Personally, I'd recommend the Canon A640 (or its little brother the A630). It's got roughly the same feature set as the NV10 with a few added bonuses (flip-out LCD, longer zoom, etc) and a much more solid critical reaction. Everyone seems to love this camera. It is, however, a little larger than the NV10, mainly in thickness. If you really need to go small, check out the Canon SD800 IS, which is comparable in most categories to the NV10 and A640 (fewer megapixels, though) and also features optical image stabilization, which will save a lot of shots that would otherwise be lost to motion blur.

Hope this helps. :)

Hi! thanks for the response. Yes the loss of my T7 HURT!

ALOT ALOT of the pix I took with the T7 were on nights out with friends, and the fact that Ive had such a slimline camera in my hands kind of makes me reluctant to go much bigger.

Ive also never printed my shots. Theyve all been for email and online use.

What do u recommend as the best of the Sony Cybershot series?

And does your choice fair better than any of the Casio Exilims?

Im going on vacation next month and need to buy it soon, just so baffled with all the choice.

Thanks so much for ur advice.

Rachel,

As far as Sonys go, the top-rated ultra-compacts seem to be the T9 (the newer T10 seems to have some serious issues with pictures using flash) and, a little bigger but still smaller than the Canon A-series I mentioned, the W100. It's about 4mm bigger than the T9 in all dimensions--not bad.

In the Casio range I'd check out the EX-Z70, which is pretty feature-packed and rated well by users.
