best sport video camera 2012 image
Anonymous.
I have a 2009 panosonic lumix (digital not HD - forget type though), but it's kind of broken because the lens won't open fully. I think it's time to get a new camera since I haven't gotten one since early 2010. I plan to be a photographer in the future (as a side job). I am also going to work at a camp and plan to take pictures there. I don't feel like bringing my big EOS digital 2008 cannon. Here's what I'm looking for:
1. Price range no more than $250. I would prefer less than $200, but if it would really suite me, then I'd go for it.
2. I'm not quite sure what I like. I know there's no such thing as a total all around digital point and shoot because I've been doing some research. I'd probably be doing photo shoots, but I also want one that would take like pictures of people doing sports since I'm in the horse world and like to take pictures of people horse riding and stuff. I guess I'd mainly focus on pets and kids and stuff.
3. I know optical zoom. I have photoshop CS5, so I don't need the pixels taken up like that.
4. I don't need a video recording. Would be nice, but eh I'd rather save my money and just use my phone or something.
5. I have a 2010 mac book pro laptop, so I'd like the card to be able to read/format on that.
6. If I print out images, it doesn't need to be more than 8X10 photo paper printed pictures. I mean I'd use my bigger camera for larger photos, so yeah. I'll probably just post the pictures online/email them if anything so won't need them really printed big.
7. I'd like to have a camera that has a decent battery life. At camp, the power went out for 8 days last year. I was able to take pictures the whole time and took over 300 pictures and still had battery life. I wouldn't mind having a long battery life like that camera.
8. My hand does shake a tad sometimes, so I'd prefer a not SOOO sensitive camera.
9. I'd like a camera that has the ability for manual settings and as well as auto or/and preset settings.
10. I'd prefer like Cannon, Nikon, Panasonic (nicer brands rather than the not so trustworthy brands because I know how to use those types of cameras).
Which camera(s) do you think would best suite me?

1. Price is right smack in your budget.
2. Zoom is enough on this camera for taking horses and their riders. This is also good for shots of pets, kids and stuff which are near you or relatively out of reach. Just remember to shoot under lots of light. Indoors, use flash.
3. Optical zoom is not extravagant but not wanting either. Don't worry. What it lacks in zoom, it makes up with optical quality.
4. This has HD video which you can completely ignore until you find a lustful desire for it later.
5. As a standard feature, all cameras follow the FAT filesystem. With memory cards 4GB and larger, FAT32 is imposed. Mac computers can recognize FAT/FAT32 without problems. You can even format the memory card to FAT/FAT32 using your Mac (no matter how many pro photographers advice you not to). It will work.
6. This is a 16MP camera. You can print to 11x16" as long as exposure quality is gloriously good enough.
7. Four AA batteries. The best would be Energizer Lithium but you can also get rechargeable Ni-MH. Just make sure they're at least 2100 mAh for very long lasting shooting. In the event you run out, just slide over to the nearest store for some Alkaline AA's. That's the beauty of it.
8. Oh, this camera's sensitive. Apart from excellent optical glass quality, it has a triple-shake-reduction technology so don't worry about shaky hands. You're covered on that one.
9. Manual exposure? Manual focus? No problem. It's not as intuitive as a dSLR. This is after all just a bridge but, if you want manual, this has manual.
10. Since you can't spell Canon correctly, I'll take it you don't know that this brand is older than them and just a tad younger than Nikon. There was a time in fact when all cameras sold by all other brands (nice and not so trustworthy) were lesser than that sold by this brand alone. So there.

If you were made dictator of the UK, what changes would you make?
TR
Also would you be benevolent or tyrannical?
Answer
A mix of benevolent & tyrannical, depending on the situation......
Changes...........
1) Put John Redwood & Jesse Norman (current Conservative MP's) in charge of the economy, as they seem to know what they're talking about better than George Osborne & the Bank of England (and before that New Labour) seem to....
http://johnredwoodsdiary.com/2012/09/13/abandon-the-deficit-reduction-plan/
http://conservativehome.blogs.com/platform/jesse_norman/
2) Put fat-cat militant Union bosses in their place
http://www.taxpayersalliance.com/waste/2011/07/union-bosses-touch-members-unite-boss-derek-simpsons-500k-payoff-met-shock-anger.html
3) Stop wasting money on useless winfarms
http://www.alltheinterweb.co.uk/search.pl?Terms=wind+power
4) Invest in power generated via Shale Gas + Thorium based nuclear
http://www.alltheinterweb.co.uk/search.pl?Terms=Thorium
5) Have the Maglev train system proposed @ http://www.500kmh.com/ built + build / re-open certain stretches of conventional railway lines to boost capacity & access. http://allthesocialnet.com/blogs/entry/There-s-more-than-one-way-to-improve-a-railway-system
6) Build a new airport in the Thames Estuary or nearby to relieve pressure on Heathrow
http://allthesocialnet.com/blogs/entry/London-South-East-England-Airport-Expansion
7) Ensure the Police are alot more assertive if there's any more riots like last year.... instead of poncing around with video cameras to capture evidence for later, send them in with Sting Grenades, Tear Gas & Water cannons (with additional back-up from Royal Marines, SAS & SBS Commandoes armed with batons, if needed).
8) Officially raise the motorway speedlimit to 75mph
9) Have the Police concentrate more on cracking down on stupid driving rather than fast driving.
10) Crackdown on cyclists who make a nuisance of themselves - jumping red lights, riding on the pavement, etc......... why do teens these days often spend most their time riding on the pavement, then ride on the side of the road facing the traffic when there's someone walking along the pavement coming the other way? (if it feels like there's alot more of them getting killed on the roads these days, that's probably why).
11) Tighten up on Foreign Aid spending, basing it on "need" instead of "need to make the elite feel good about themselves, even though it's proved not to work & creates corruption, and doesn't help the people it's supposed to help, and still being paid to countries who have their own Space & Nuclear programs".
http://www.conservativechitchat.co.uk/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1345211535
12) Correct BBC Political bias towards the left to make them more "centre-right", and return F1 100% completely to the BBC......... and stick the fuckwit who was jizzing themselves over "what a good deal it was for the fans" when it was announced they were shafting us... stick them in the same prison camp as the fat-cat union bosses.
13) Repeal anti-smoking laws, and let businesses decide if they want to be smoking or non-smoking
14) Lower the total tax on Petrol & Diesel to 48% instead of the current 60%
15) Make Tax & Benefits simpler so it doesn't confuse everyone (including the government employees who are supposed to deal with tax & benefits).
16) Cap income tax at 35% for anyone earning over £15,000 a year (and 12% for anyone earning under £24,000).
17) Fix the road tax system so that currently £0 rated vehicles like the Toyota Pious pay a minimum £50 a year to use the roads, and streamline the categories and cap the maximum payable to £300 a year (instead of £460 like it'd currently cost you to tax a Range Rover Sport).
18) Seriously crackdown on Scrap metal thieves........... those stealing war memorial plaques sentenced to 30yrs hard labour.
Those caught stealing infrastructure like bits of the National Electricity grid, or bits of the railway system to be charged of Terrorism, and sentenced to death by firing squad.
19) Beef-up the military if / when funds permit........ including the building of a couple of extra smaller Aircraft carriers to supplement the 2 big 'uns currently under construction + a few extra Type-45 destroyers
