waterproof digital cameras for kids image
cello.love
I know it's supposed to have 15 different settings, but I can't find them. I have it on the setting below auto, pressed the function/set button and found the program, portrait, night snapshot, kids & pets, indoors, and face self-timer, but nothing else. How do I find the others that it's supposed to have (beach, underwater, etc.)?
Answer
If you're trying to find the extra Scene modes (called Special Scenes) such as beach, foliage, snow and fireworks, etc...then why don't you simply look up...beach, foliage or snow etc...in the Index at the back of your User Guide??? They are there.
And they will direct you to the appropriate page and show you how to select them.
If you don't have your User Guide, you can download it here...

P.S. using the Underwater Special Scene doesn't mean you can automatically shoot underwater. You first NEED to buy a special waterproof casing (WP-DC36) to protect your camera so you can shoot underwater...lol...they cost approx. $175 from Amazon.

best digital camera for pictures of kids?
heyyy ther
What the best camera on the market these days? Don't much care about price, well maybe like 500-600 or less. I know I should go with dslr, but i need something i can have with me at all times so i need something compact. so whats the best out there for mostly taking pictures of an active 3yr old and active puppies?? Wouldn't mind having something waterproof
also, in general what should i be looking for like megapixel wise and what not?
Answer
The smaller cameras are generally limited by the fact that they can't really take pictures of anything that won't sit still. When you are taking pictures of active 3 year olds and active puppies, having them sit still is nothing short of a miracle.
Waterproofness is more of a gimic in my book, so i consider it here.
The best one on the market in my opinion is the Canon s95. <------------
It is small compact.
has the largest sensor available for that size.
Has a very fast aperture of f/2.0 (in cameras, faster apertures let in more light, lower number the faster)
Deals reasonablly well in low light too.
Other than that, Other chocies would includef
Canon 550d + 50mm f/1.8
or
Olympus PEN - some kind of fast lens.
You would choose these cameras because they have a faster aperture (f/1.8) and a larger sensor.
Like the other person said, the iphone 4 is a great camera to have with you all day long, especially with it's new integrated technology that improves low light pictures. That being said, the iphone or any smaller camera is sitll limited by the fact that the subject, kids, dogs need to sit still for the picture to be taken.
Dont' worry about megapixels. You only need megapixles if you are going to blow up the picture and put it into a huge frame like 20inches x 30inches. 5 is more than enough to enlarge the picture to 8x11 already.
The things i consider are important include
- fast aperture (2.8 is standard around point and shoots, 2.0 is faster <-- Canon s95)
- larger sensor
- and i don't worry about zoom. when taking pictures of kids, i'm usually right next to them.
