My daughter's preschool is a co-op... all the parents volunteer in the classroom and with any projects. I recently did some mild maintenance of thier website and they asked if I had any suggestions for a digital camera. The email I received is posted below. I've looked around but didn't come up with anything (I just got this yesterday) So if anybody has suggestions I'd be extremely grateful and my daughter would be helped.
Thanks for reading 😀
Here's the email from the director:
I would definitly appreciate some help with the camera. I keep getting
different info from everyone I talk to.
I will need two cameras. One for each class room. We have found over the
years it is too difficult to share a camera between rooms. I would think I
could find a good one for around $400.00. (that's for each)
We are looking to use them for an assestment program, to produce books to
enhance language development and finally we would like to do a power point
presentation at the end of the year instead of a slide show.
The school has four computers: The main desktop model that I use is the Mac G4
with a HP printer. This would most likely be the one that all equipment and
software would have to work with.
We also have 3 laptops- 1 old IBM . a new IBM and a Compaq.
The Mac has an internal zip drive- no diskette or CD burner. I was told that I
should be able to print pictures right from the printer. But I also think I
would want to work with them on the desktop.
Most of the time I will just be printing off on to papaer for use in the
classroom and only occassionally printing on photography paper.
It was recommended to me that we should not consider less than 3.1 Pixels. I
would also like a zoom and to be able to shoot pictures in rapid succession.
The two recommedations that I receive previouly were for a Olympus and Epson.
Again thanks for any advice or suggestions... I'm particularly interested in what our resident Ferengi have to say.. I know Ross owns like 34 cameras already....
