Advice For Motor Show Photos

[33Sedan]

Guys, going to the sydney motor show this weekend and obviously taking my camera. I have two cameras and wanted to know

a) which one to take, and

b) how to take good photos in the motor show inside environment.

I got these two camera, one is a cheapo and the other is my dads.

Olympus c-750

Olympus fe-220

Thanks guys

Take the FE220, it's an ok camera, good for personal shots and things, the other one is a bit old, round 4-5 years i'm guessing? and only 4MP vs 7.1, not that MP matters, it's all about image quality, optical zoom and ISO, both have pretty low zooms 3x and 4x,

So i reckon the FE220

If you are looking into getting into real good photography later on, I'd recommend if you're on a budget of say $500

get the FujiFilm S5700 and a 2-4gb SD card + some rechargable AA batteries, it takes nice quality photos 10x optical zoom, good for point and shoot work

or hardcore styles a Canon 30D or 40D then say a 35-200mm lense, will easily set you back a few grand, usually round 3k

Make sure you post the pics up of any good skylines at the show have fun dude

Haha cheers mate, don't think there will be any skylines, I wish the new gtr would be there but don't think im that lucky.

Ur right about the c-750, although it does have 10x optical zoom and far more manual features, not that i know how to use them though ;-)

The fe220 seems to be quite a nice point and shoot camera, but most of the photos i have taken in darkish environments turn out weird.

hmmm, in that case yeah, take the one with the better zoom, get some shots of the girls standing round the cars if there are no skylines

Be patient... There will be a lot of people in there... people will walk infront of you, and they will bump you...

Eventually you'll get the shot you want... and the more important your camera looks, the more people that will stop for you

Get a lanyard around your neck too

Take both and look REALLY important!

then you can compare the results so you know for next time..
