Hallo, I'm in discussion about 'which' camera to buy in another topic thread above, however I'm specifically interested to hear from anyone who has tested or is using the new Nikon Coolpix 8400 as I've followed Nikon and their development of the CP 5000, followed by the CP 5400, till this, the CP8400 which finally has a wide angle.
I'm an artist and the camera must have a wide angle lens to document my exhibitions/ installation's (minimum of 28mm wide lens > 35mm equivalent), and I want around 5- 8 megapix.
I'm waiting for DCRESOURCE review of Nikon 8400 (do you know when it's coming?), or have you got one? I've been told a camera like the Olympus 5060 or 8080 might be for me, possibly both better camera than the newer Nikon CP8400? Read a review in a British magazine that wasn't glowing... Any comments?
Thank you.
