I've recently bought Nikon CP 4800. I liked every feature of it but the low light pictures where the image is blurred (due to focus problems) no matter what care I take. And also at the long end of the zoom (8.3 x) it has been tough to create a photo without blurring. I want to return the camera before 14 days. Is Image stabilization an answer to the above problems?
If yes, will I be satisfied with Panasonic Lumix LZ-2?
what use are good colors if the images are blurred anyways? Please provide your answers. I am not triggering a hot debate here but honestly, am not able to decide which camera to keep for long term.
P.S: I'm a student and can buy a camera only @ 300 $.
