Optio Bill Robb had at GFM - I want a used one cheap...
Beyond one of you selling it to me...
Do any of these point and shoots shoot raw?
The Optios won't. They record at 2304 X 1728 pixels at best, and that ends up
being a jpeg (Exif 2.2)
The fastest setting is ASA (ISO) 200.
Which has the largest sensor?
All the small Optio series, thru S6 at least, have the same sensor, 1/2.5".
Can I just hook it up to my computer to load?
Yes.
Can I use my Canon Zoom browser to load stuff?
Recommendations for one for no more than $150.... ?
The usual asking price for one today is right around that level.
I'd like to be able to pull images out of it big enough for submitting
stuff to stock (their min requirement is 11 x 17 at 300 ppi and at
least 50 mgs)
Can't help you there. The specs you quoted are printing specs, not photographic
terms. but ask any camera store how large a print can you make from a good 6 MP
CCD sensor. The Pentax lens is a beaut and well-corrected, and the physical size
of the camera mean nothing. It's the sensor size and pixel count!
want something I can carry with me for quick grab stuff without taking
my more expensive gear every time I go out.
