'Embed Media' is new to me.
Anyways. I am "
shopping" for a digital camera. I ask you, O Internets, to assist. Basically, I want a goddamn point-and-shoot camera, that is good with details (since I'll be taking pics of yarn and knitting), compatible with Windows, has decent storage capacity, zooms in/out fairly well, and won't run out of batteries in under two seconds. Ideally on the low end of the price scale - this is basic stuff, after all.
*reads up a bit* A lot of what I want this for is static stuff (yarn, kitty, &c). I don't need or want a movie-recordery-thing. It should have a flash built in. Auto-focusing would be awesome. It must accept rechargeable batteries. Natch, it should have a power cable. I wouldn't mind a timer, but that's a feature, not a must. It does not at all need to have image modifying things on the camera itself, nor should it have the ability to print to a colour printer.
In conclusion, I would love for it to either have its own software or have it interact nicely with the software I have, or something. Hell, it can be read as a drive in Windows Explorer for all I care, so long as I can copy/erase more than one image at a time, and I don't have to scour the internet to find the software.
What say you?
Alternately, is there a good brandless digital camera quiz-like thing where I can do this myself?
