Here are wise words you should not forget: Buy the cheapest digital camera that will do what you need and the most expensive lens you can afford.



In other words, put your money in the lens. Entry level cameras made by the big companies are all pretty good. But we can’t say that for all entry level lenses. In fact many kit lenses are very poor. It’s all in the “glass”! For a well developed argument and longer explanation follow the link. (20/09/08 Entry)  http://lyndersaydigital.com/brain/pix_files/lens_primacy.html

September is almost here, and this year is especially interesting. Two great camera companies have released upgrades to two fantastic compact cameras. We have the new S95 (was the S90) and the new LX5 (was the LX3). The battle for the best compact is set to start  in Cologne, Germany at Photokina in September. You can already hear the saber rattling in the forums, but until these two guns come to market it will be just talk. Looks to be an action filled fall for camera lovers!
