Technology: April 2006 Archives

When we were close to Andorra this weekend, we hopped over the border to do some shopping. We were looking for a new digital camera, and finally bought the Pentax A10. Of all cameras that matched our requirements ---small form factor, minimal 3x optical zoom, quality optics system---, the Pentax was the only one offering a usefull additional feature: stabilisation. The problem with small cameras is that it is very difficult to hold it steady, especially when using the zoom function. Stabilisation makes sure that pictures are still sharp under these conditions.

The coming days I will try out our new camera, so you might expect some changes on my photo page again.
