After a New Digital Camera, DVD Player & Cheap LCD TV. Advice Needed

fleetingmind

Hi all,

My current digital camera takes an age to take a photo once pressing the button and throws out a scary amount of red light when taking a picture with the flash. It is a old 3.2 Sony Cybershot.
I have a one year old daughter and need a compact camera with a good lcd dispplay which takes a good photo and takes it quickly after pressing the button and likewise with the flash. Also needs to take steady shots and not un-focused shots which my Sony does.
Budget up to about £150.

My DVD player has packed up and i need a new one. Needs to have a HDMI connection, able to upscale, and be multi region (or have a code to do so) I have been looking at the Samsung DVDHD870 and the Philips DVP5980.
After a fairly cheap one so any suggestions would be great.

Also after a LCD TV for the bedroom. After a a cheap one and about 17 - 22". Freeview would be a good added bonus (I have a Freeview recorder).

Thank you for any help or suggestions.

Happy new year.

For a camera you could try one of the Casio Exilims, they are very fast to start up and are reasonably priced .. mine also has a feature whereby you can set it to continuously record and then when you press the button it stores the previous few seconds therefore you do not miss a particular shot.

No idea about DVD player

as far as LCD TVs are concerned have a look at the Polaroid ones on the Dixons site (also price compare with Currys and PC World .. oddly their prices do vary but the cheapest price should apply). They have a 19" without Freeview for £180, they also have a 20" digital for £230

And as others would say, don;t forget to order through Quidco for extra discount.
