Last weekend, I bought a new digital camera, having been frustrated with how outdated my 2-year-old camera already seemed to be. I really wanted a strong optical zoom without getting into SLR price territory. I wound up getting another Kodak, the Z712 IS.
My digital camera history:
1999 – 2004 – HP Photosmart C200 – 1MP – 0x optical zoom (can’t believe I kept this camera for so long)
2004 – Canon PowerShot A70 — 3MP – 3x (returned it, couldn’t afford, but should’ve kept it)
2004 – 2005 – Samsung Digimax 401 – 4MP – 0x (mode dial broke off, piece of junk)
2005 – 2007 – Kodak EasyShare LS743 – 4MP – 2.8x (happy with it, just wanted something a little better)
2007 – Kodak EasyShare Z712IS – 7MP – 12x
And some unoriginal photos, of my pets, of course (with more on Flickr):
