Digital Camera Tips - Creative Compact Cameras - A Word Of Advice
by Dan Feildman
Creative compact cameras aren't much larger than compact digital cameras, however they offer a good bit more user control. Typically the lenses are bigger, heavier, and of higher optical quality. You will also find that almost all creative compact cameras have the option of saving your images in RAW format, usually proprietary but sometimes in Adobe's standard DNG format.
A standard JPEG is convenient for uploading to the Web, sharing with friends, or getting prints. Unfortunately, a lot of shadow and highlight detail that was captured by the sensor can be lost with a standard JPEG.
Using the RAW format, the photographer has the opportunity to bring out that shadow or highlight detail in an image using an editing program on a personal computer (or letting a professional lab do it and make a really great print).
Don't buy one of these cameras unless you are prepared to spend an evening reading the manual and learning the settings. Otherwise the results will be the same as if you had used a simpler compact camera.
Panasonic LX2 (28-110mm F2.8-4.9 image-stabilized Leica lens; good for wide angle). Canon G7. 35-210mm F2.8-4.8 lens; no RAW capability; very bad noise at high ISO Ricoh GR Digital. This has a fixed focal-length 28mm equivalent lens that will be superb for wide-angle scenic photos. It is not clear if this camera is going to be sold in the United States.
