Shooter

讲一个神乎其技的sniper如何受到陷害而后为自己澄清并复仇的故事. 非常entertaining的片子.

看电影里sniper杀人总觉得非常神奇, 当年在Enemy At The Gate里主角初露锋芒那一场就是, 让人既惊骇又兴奋. 而这片子里的主角技术更加被夸大到惊人的地步. 且不光是远程狙击, 此人可谓十八般武艺样样精通, 近身格斗, 布局炸弹等等也毫不含糊, 一个人可以干掉几十人的特攻队, 完全就是个无所不能的杀手.

看到最后觉得此人未免太嚣张了点, 不过很有”十步杀一人, 千里不留行”的豪侠之风, 加上杀的是所谓坏人, 所以看的倒也爽快.

 

Panasonic DMC FZ8 vs. Fujifilm Finepix S6000/6500fd

Comments welcome:

Panasonic FZ8

Pros: 1. 12X optical zoom w/ reliable OIS ;

         2. Light & realitively compact! 340 g/113 x 72 x 79 mm (Lithium-ion batteries);  Possible for me to carry around!

         3. Affordable (Around $300, including battery; SD cards are also cheap)

Cons: 1. No wide-angle (Can buy an inexpensive wide-angle converter at around $40 on Ebay but the quality is not guaranteed)

          2. 1/2.5″ CCD, picture quality not as great as Fuji; noise problems at low ISO settings + too much noise reduction at high ISO (used Panasonic FZ5 once and was not sure I liked the color and pictures esp. those shot in very bright light; didn’t try it in very low light though)

Fuji S6000fd

Pros: 1. Very attractive 28-300mm (10.7X) zoom

         2. 1/1.7″ CCD, very good image quality esp. in low light conditions; SLR-like

         3. Similarly affordable (Around $250 after rebates at this time; AA batteries cost nothing; but 2Gb XD card is around $50)

Cons: 1. Too bulky, 700 g /131 x 98 x 128 mm , even heavier & bigger than many DSLRs, too inconvenient to carry :((((((((((

          2. No OIS, questionable usability at tele end of zoom (but there won’t be too much need for a really long end zoom for me)

          3. XD cards always turn me off (but I can try to overcome it…)

What I want/need:  

Portability / Wide-angle & long zoom -__-b / Sharp pictures w/ vivid color / Durability

 

Not sure whether I missed anything… but so far I really couldn’t make up my mind 🙁

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
