Quest for the right camera.....continues...

Until  today morning both Akash and I were pretty much settled on buying a Digital Point and shoot with extended zoom. The question was which one?

One of the concerns for was also the camera's performance in low light / night mode.

Here the Digital SLR wins hands down.

None of the Digital Point and shoot cameras can boast of even reasonably good performance in low/very little light.

 

Now, just how important is high optical zoom? The advanced digital point and shoots can offer upto a 26X optical zoom - which sounds very very exciting.

But with he Digital SLR, one has to invest heavily in additional lenses for that kind of optical zoom.

 

But the dSLR shoots better in the night.

So which is more important?

zoom or better performance in night mode?
