    one thing the TZ8 has but the sx130IS doesn't is the wind noise cut option while recording videos.

    The sx130 IS uses AA batteries while the TZ8 uses the Li ion battery. The Li-Ion gives more backup but the AA bateries are more convenient (IMO)
    are u really getting a tz -8 for ~13 k ?? Last time i found out @ panasonic outlet,they wouldn't give me a TZ 7 for no less than 19k and a tz 8 for 20k and a tz 10 for arnd 22k... is it grey market ur talking about ??
    If it is indian with warrenty,go for the TZ -8,or else go for the sony h55,u'll get warrenty for a year and has alsmost similar features as the TZ -8...
    in fact it has a bit bigger lcd... TZ - 7,TZ -10 are supirior to the H 55 but not the TZ -8... IQ's are almost same as well...

    This is my first posting here and have been following up a lot of discussions for the past 2 days and have finally decided to place some querries. I really appreciate xBhp Mods for having started this thread.

    I believe there are many experienced photographers here who must have handled different cameras especially Nikons and Canon DSLRs. I would be gald if you guys could guide me in choosing a better DSLR between Nikon 3100 and Canon 1000D or perhaps another model within the price range of Rs.33,000 /- inclusive VR Kits, 18-55mm lenses.

    Would be glad if the advantages and disadvantages are pointed out. I have already check out the features and specifications of both the cams. However, a review from the experienced would be appreciated .

    go for the 3100,it's wayy more advanced than the eos 1000d and the eos 1000d come with a non stabilised lens and also lacks video rec(some might not need it)... but is in the 25k mark and u can also,under the d3100's budget get a 1000d+ 18-135 IS lens for about 15k (u can also sell the standard kit lens) will add upto arnd the same as the 3100.

    features wise,u'll loose the new tech in the d3100 over the 1000d,the starndard kit lens with the nikon is vr(image stabilised lens) and is plentiful for a beginner.also the 1000d lacks spot metering (not an issue,u can zoom in the center weighted mode to get the metering right ).The 3100 also packs some good hd vid features and is faster that the 1000d as well..

    so the choice is urs... and did i mention u got beter/cheaper range of lenses for the nikon's.....

    @Devilboy

    I had the same query some time back. Firstly, look at some sites which give you buying guides like this or this.

    Secondly, you cannot go wrong with either camera. There are some minor differences between them which you can read reviews and find out. In the end, you just need to see if you would mind paying extra for the D3100 over the 1000D.

    PS: I used dpreview.com to check out revews. Although a bit on the technical side, they are very comprehensive. Also, digital-slr-guide.com has reviews in very simple language.

    Happy researching!!!

    Needed a cam for clicking snaps while touring, got myself a canon ixus 200 is for 9800/-.

    I'd had went to check the prices of canon ixus 120/110 which was recommended by a fellow xbhpian, I got a good deal for the ixus 200 so I took it. Happy with the purchase.

    Now need to develop *some* photography skills before this weekend
