Digital Camera - Video

Aug 2, 2011 9:27AM PDT

I am planning a trip to Spain and am looking for a good digital camera that will also take good quality videos. I am not at all tech saavy and could use some guidance. The Nikon S9100 with a 32 gb card was suggested and I was wondering if you may have any recommendations?

A Memory Card warning
Aug 2, 2011 11:48AM PDT

There are some counterfeit 32 gb SD memory cards being sold.

The counterfeit cards will either:
1. not work at all
2. be intermittent
3. be less than 32 gb.

So, buy from a trusted source..

I think you should have to change your mind for Nikon there is so many other brands which is much more effective then Nikon...

Any suggestions on type other than the Nikon. I am looking for both the quality of photos, zoom and also being able to record all on one device.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Nikon S9100

You don't really need to look any further if you are happy with the S9100.
It takes excellent photos and has all the features you want.

But if you want to compare it with similar other brands of cameras, here is the place to look:
