Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"We need a digital camera that can be switched on and fire off that first shot fast. It's not a commonly tracked statistic on any review site, and nobody seems to have this information for every camera. We were hoping other readers could inform us as to what small digital cameras can fire off their first pics in under a second (ideally under half a second). It needs to be small, but mostly, just really quick in operation. Thanks!"
$357 is ridiculously expensive for such limited functionality.
For about $340 you can instead get a Popcorn Hour A110 + 1000GB Seagate Barracuda 7,200RPM and also get:
- MKV support
- 1080p output
- Twice the capacity
- Ethernet port with FTP, SMB servers
- USB host port
- Media Services to watch online content like YouTube on your TV
- Torrent client
- Much better remote
Only con would be the lack of rugged padding, easily fixed by any carrying bag.
Good suggestion Daniel I'm looking to travel some and that is a pretty sweet suggestion
