ok, well i have a digital camera now, that is big and bulky.
and plus its not very good at taking pics.
when you have the flash on its wayyy to bright and whites out alot.
so i'd like to know what brand and type of digital camera would be best to get.
i want it to be 100$ or less, maybe a little more, not more that 150$.
it should be able to take GOOD pictures, and have zoom, and be compact, not huge. :]
thanksabunch.<3 I think best the camera in your price range is the Canon Powershot A560. It costs $160 at B&H and You can use the rest of your budget to buy a decent memory card.
Go here and read an extensive review:

Check the sample images, too.
If you want to save a little, check for the A550:

I see no reason not to go the extra money for the A560, though. You gain one stop in ISO, it is a little faster in continuous mode and the LCD is 2.5" instead of 2".
You will need to add a memory card and I suggest the Sandisk or Lexar brand in any speed. You will spend from about $20 for a 512 KB card, which is perfectly adequate, to about $40 for a Sandisk Ultra II, which is as good as you'd ever want for this or many other cameras.
My brother has the A540 and my mother-in-law has the A530 - on my recommendation - and neither one has stopped speaking to me yet. These are the models that were replaced by the A550 and A560. What do you need a camera for? you're going to end up breaking it anyways, lmao. |
