Month ago I was thinking of buying a super zoom digital camera.
There were some variants -
Sony HX7V/HX9V;
Panasonic TZ18/20;
Canon 220/230 HS;
Nikon S9100.
Sony's camera are to expensive and 16 MP I think is too much.
Panasonic TZ20 image quality was terrible, TZ18 have CCD sensor (priority was to buy MOS).
Canon's camera seems to do the best of image quality from this variants but I didn't like canon's auto pop-up flash and how it looks at all.
Nikon's image quality as of tests seems to be quite lower then canon's but I thought that it wiil be the best variant, so I bought it.
Today make some test shots, if someone is interested in buying this camera or compare with other cameras.
Here are the photos:
