Моля специалистите да се произнесат за този модел фотоапарат!!!
В смисъл дали са му добрли ТТ-характеристиките, както и дали ще върши работа за нашите (мойте) цели???
И въобще струва ли за него да дам 250/300 лв (поне толкова ми искат на първо четене, но е без нищо друго)???
Диск с програма за връзка с кАмпютАра дали ще си иска???
Ето го и самият него:

Така...изобщо не ме притеснява че е производство 2005 година и че е "едва" 5 мегапиксела.
Астроном/любител съм така че и такива снимки не са ми от значение.
Но за моделите, макро и т.н. става ли?
Май трябва да има и дистанционно и други "аксесуари" които обаче едва ли са в наличност (предвид цената).
Казвайте да го купувам ли????
