I’ve just taken some photos to compare our digicams: the 2 megapixel Olympus I used in the USA last year (our first digicam), Mary-Annes 6 megapixel Panasonic FX-01, and my Alpha 100. The winner? The Alpha – happily, because it cost much more than the FX-01, weighs much more and is much larger. Back in 1999, the Olympus cost exactly the same as the Alpha did yesterday!
(Of course, the thumbnail images don’t show the difference. Take a look at the full-size images by clicking the icon above the photo in the gallery.)
I took some great photos with the Olympus during my break last year, but looking at the difference, I should have bought a DSLR before my trip. Live and learn…
