Which is better, an electronic viewfinder or just a regular see thru? With the regular see thru, how do you know if your focus and zoom is right? <fon

works better. With a regular viewfinder you just have to trust the camera in most instances.

the optical is just like any camera. Optics are used, such as glass lens. The digital is done with electronics. The picture is brought through the lens and magnified in the camera. You zoom in and lose quality. You can get close enough to start seeing pixels. My camera has both. 3X optical and ??X digital but I only used the digital once and then turned it off.
That is my understanding of it and if I am off, lemme know :0) You want the optical zoom.

on the computer screen you are not gonna see any difference. It is when you blow the thing up for printing that the difference shows up. It when you zoom in with the software.
With one of the higher bit cameras, you can take a picture of a scene and then go into Photoshop and zoom in close and crop it, then print the cropped picture, at high quality, in a frameable size. I don't know all that much about it, only what I have experienced with my cameras.
A floppy only holds 1.4 megs of information. That is it. With the higher bit cameras the one picture may be bigger than that. That information is all picture information. This information is used by Photoshop when you are cropping, lightening or whatever to a picture. If the information is not there on the original, you are limited to what you can do.
When you post a picture on the web, you make it as small as possible, digitly, and they look great. Try to blow that thing up though. It deteriates fast. If the camera is only gonna be used for the web, most any digital will give you good pictures.
Those are great pictures, by the way. I gonna copy them. <IMG SRC="/forums/images/smile.gif" BORDER=0 ALT="

Very good and sharp. Was a tripod used? Like Royal said, a camera with a lot of resolution (lots of pixels like 3.3MB) will print a picture up to 8 by 10 and even more. The FD75 is great on zoom and close-ups and can take lots of high quality pictures to be used when posting them on the forums. I use the Canon G1 and it has three different resolutions, one for the web (640 by 480)one intermediate (1024 by 76 and high (2048 by 1536).
The difference between the FD75 and the Canon G1 is the G1 can take 442 pictures at a resolution of 640 by 480, 207 pictures at the intermediate res. and 71 at the high resolution (2048 by 1536). The FD75 using the floppie disc just don't have kind of capacity but it still takes great looking photos. I use the highest resolution on the G1 because I print lots of 8 by 10 pictures. Lots of my pictures are over 2 megabites, the floppie's max is 1.44 megabites.
So if you're not going to print large pictures the FD75 is a good choice because it will take as good a picture as the G1 but just won't print the large pictures very well.
Confusionly yours,
