I have the camera - not my favorite - made me want to update quicker to a dlsr. I have found that you really have to watch holding it steady to get non-blurry shots-and that is in auto mode with the antishake on. i would get a Nikon, Canon,or Sony Point and shoot myself.

I know someone who bought a GE camera. I don't know if it was this exact one, but I thought it was funny because I didn't even know they made cameras and B&H doesn't even stock it :P

after spending much time researching and checking reviews ive ordered a ge x5 from amazon...great deal of £110.00 for the camera,4gb card,case,rechargeable batteries and charger.....
i'm returning to what i would term'proper'photography after a long break(used to have the former slr camera of the year,a yashica fxd quartz,to give a time frame on my gap!) but i just dont have the budget or inclination to invest in a slr and a multitude of lenses,so im hoping that this bridge camera will get me kick started back into the hobby with its apparent multi tasking abilty and flexibility...ill let you know how i get on as it should arrive tommorow(cant wait!!!) |

well,recieved the x5 today.......first impressions are that its a very solid well built device.Its a little smaller than i expected,rather like a 2 thirds slr but everything works with a solid click or push...very reassuring.
in respect of initial handling,it feels good in the hand,with all the main controls to hand and you can flick from a viewfinder view to the main lcd screen via one press of a dedicated button at the rear of the body......pretty handy. ill be posting a review of the camera after a few weeks of using it but i must admit to being shocked as to just how much can be packed into a camera compared to my old and much loved yashica fxd(do they still make cameras?).......ive a feeling that this little camera will,be all i need for the next few years... |
