Hi all,
I bought a benq point-n-click camera a while back after my old cannon broke out of warranty. This turned out to be a bad idea - the benq sucked, and died a death. Its in the RMA process now, but it'll probably just go on eBay as a BNIB when the replacement gets back.
So I'm looking for a replacement, and this time I'm sticking with a decent brand. This Pentax seems reasonable value (just shy of £120) - but I have a question. It has a "blur reduction" thing, which it claims boosts the ISO up to 1600 at the expense of a few megapixels of information, which sounds like a good deal to me.
Would anyone who has experience with this anti-blur stuff care to comment, does it do what it says on the tin, or is it like "digital zoom", thus a waste of time?
Cheers,
Dave
