CM Club: Do you think this would be a good (cheap) camera for childminding?

here

My camera takes ages to 'take ' the picture & the batteries keep running out

So I need a new one I guess

I've been looking at the same camera, I think it's more than adequate for childminding.

KatyMac · 11/06/2009 10:17

I thought I'd let the children take pictures with the old one

I've had this exact camera for a year and it's great. I got it for childminding and for quick hol snaps when canoeing/in waterfalls etc as don't want to mess up my darling Canons D40 EOS's

I have to say though, I got an iphone and use that for my CM obs pics now - no need to carry phone AND camera... just iphone now. Prints really good quality pics!

I use the camera on my mobile and download the photos to my laptop

jennipenni, i have just got an iphone, are the pics decent enough quality then? I was using my n95 for pics, they seemed better tbh ok for obs but not particularly good and i know phone is less mp

sorry for hijack km, i think that camera is definately more than adequate, my last mobile camera was only 5mp and this iphone is only 2mp

KatyMac · 12/06/2009 07:58

No problem for the hijack

Someone was talking about a sony something or other (cyber??) are they better?

i don't think I could use a camera on a phone.....I can never find my phone
