..................... when my faithful little Fuji digicam died a few months ago...................At 8.3 MP the digicam is a higher spec than my DSLR & it's small enough to fit in my shirt pocket.


I don't recall reading about your misfortunes with your Fuji, Doug..........what have you replaced the "shirt pocket camera" with, now ?

You don't use a phone as a camera, you don't call your friends with a camera and you don't make movies with a digital photocamera...

There are 3 handy products, known as:

a phone... used to ring or text people

a photocamera... used to make photo's

a camcorder... used to make movies

Every combination of either type of product will be mediocre at best.

sincerely... Omag ( grumpy old-man style)  ;)

But I stand behind what I stated.

So I am looking for a phonephotocameracamcorder then  ;D

Well, camcorder ability isnt essential, but most seem to have it too.

Probably because I didn't mention it. ;)

I got another Fuji. An older model at the right price. I miss the optical viewfinder but it does more or less what I want it for.

Shirt pocket... camera... camera gone... hmm... according to a salesman I know, you wouldn't believe the number of items that fall out of shirtpockets... straith into the toilet... a bit messy and electronics don't like it...

Am I on to something here?

Just kidding...  :P  :D  ;)

I always wear the neck strap just in case. :P

Well, not always. The only time I forgot I dropped the blasted thing in the car park. A slight dent but otherwise OK.
