- If there is nothing wrong with it, they’ll probably charge you a restocking fee. Look on their site for their policy on returns.
- It probably depends on how long ago they were purchased and exactly why you’re returning them (is something damaged?). Check the receipt and see what it says about the return policy, and if your issue isn’t covered, call the store and ask.
- Yes, you can return it. If it’s defective then you won’t be charged a restocking fee but if it’s fine you’ll be charged a 15% restocking fee. Don’t try to lie about it being defective, they’re not stupid. Also, if you exchange for a camera that’s close to the same price range or higher, they should waive the fee.

- Can You Help Me Select A “fast” Compact Digital Camera?
No, the shutter speed has nothing to do with the experience you are referring to. There are three things you can measure that give you an estimate of how “quick-responding” a camera feels to the user:
1. The power-on time. The time it takes from the moment you press the On button, to the moment it’s ready to take the first picture.
2. The shutter lag. Measured from the moment you press the shutter release, to the moment it actually captures the picture.
3. The shot-to-shot time. This is what Floyd G is referring to in one of your other answers.
I think the most important measurement in your case is number 2 above. Actually, there are two ways to measure shutter lag. The first is the total time it takes the camera to focus on the subject and then take the picture. The second is the time it takes just to take the picture, after you have pre-focused the camera by pushing the shutter release half-way. If you are just a casual point-and-shooter, then the total time is what’s important to you.
You usually won’t find the shutter lag mentioned in the manufacturer’s specifications, except where a short shutter lag time is one of the selling features of the camera. Instead, you should look at reviews such as www.dpreview.com.
My recommendation for a camera with a short shutter lag time is the Fujifilm FinePix F30. Also, most cameras by Ricoh are also good in this respect. In fact, most of today’s cameras have lower shutter lag times than cameras of a few years ago. There are still a few that have long shutter lag, so be careful. - Can You Help Me Select A “fast” Compact Digital Camera?
No.
What you quoted for the Kodak camera was the ‘shutter’ speed. That is, the amount of time the camera takes in light to the sensor. Modern digital cameras no longer have a classic film shutter, but the name carries on.
The important variables in how fast a digital camera can cycle through saving images to the memory card is the speed of the computer chip in the camera (a hard thing to find out about) and the type and speed of memory card the camera uses.
Generally speaking, the more complex and large the image size is, the more processing power you’ll need to process and save the image.
I now use Olympus digital cameras due to the price and the general quality of the hardware and image results. Their memory cards come in different ‘speeds’ as well, allowing large RAW images to save to memory as fast as possible.
When I shoot an 11 megabyte RAW format, it can take six seconds to save, but that’s offset by the ultra fine quality of the finished image.
Good luck with your choice! - Can You Help Me Select A “fast” Compact Digital Camera?
Sony cybershot…..above 6.mega pixel
Canon also ok..8.1 pixel - Can You Help Me Select A “fast” Compact Digital Camera?
Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-W5 5.1-Megapixel Digital Camera – Fast and Easy to Use
The camera is extremely fast in operation. The camera takes less than a second to power itself on in either review or shooting mode. It feels almost instantaneous. It can capture images at about 1.2-1.7 per second in burst mode. In single-frame mode, the camera could snap pictures as fast as I could push the shutter release button – about one a second. The focusing takes much less than a second and the shutter lag (the time between the moment you push the button and the moment when the picture is taken), when pre-focused, is almost unnoticeable.
Recommendation: I recommend Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-W5 if you want a cool yet capable camera with 5.1-megapixel resolution and huge LCD screen that produces excellent photos with print sizes of up 11×14 inches. It is extremely fast and easy to use. - Buying Camcorder Or Digital Camera?
you should get a digital camera because you can take pictures with you newborn that are high-quality and you can take videos also. go to wal-mart or best buy or where ever you go and ask how long much video memory is there. if you can’t find a digital camera that has enough video than definitely get the video camcorder. you don’t want to to mess up your wife’s video. if you do you’ll be paying it off for the rest of your life.
