Which is the best Digital camera for the beginners?

Company name ,model no./price

I bought a Fuji FinePix S700 and it is my first one. It was around $250 (I also bought a 2GB memory stick) and I love it. It is really easy to learn and great for someone who has never owned a digital camera before. A bit pricey for a beginner, but I have a friend that's big into digital cameras say he wants to buy one.
You can find them on tigerdirect.com or newegg.com, both sites have it for the same price.

Sony T11 is fine about umm 3-400 USD

hi i just got a fuji s5600,it cost 149 quids.its really easy to use.got it from pc world

This question is kind of the most general questions in the world. It is, like, Which car is most suitable for me? :)

You can find a Sony Cybershot from $300 to $800. They are cheap, however, the quality of picture is not good enough :)

I think, we should try to use a DSLR, this thing will make your pictures become excellent :) Beleive in me, try one :)

Nikon D40x kit (with 18-135mm lens or the others) from $999 USD

Nikon D50x with 18-70mm from $1200 USD

Canon 400D

Canon 350D

Try to search these brandnames and series in your local shops, ask them about their comments on these kinds of cameras, which are called DSLR :)

Good day :)

I bought a Kodak C663 for about Rs 12000/-. I am quite happy with it. It's simple to use, has a large LCD display and gives very good results.

I had a Sony cyber-shot for years--took me a few times to learn it's features, but MAN, that was an EXCELLENT camera! Picture clarity was excellent & user-friendly placement of buttons....

It was purchased in 2002 or 2003 for $349--probably cheaper nowadays.

I've tried a Canon since then, but didn't like it as well. It's a bit cumbersome & not as sophisticated.

Also have an HP which I really do not like. May be that I bought a low-end model, but it's NOT a very good camera....very complicated to access it's features & menus!! Pictures are hit-or-miss.... I can never seem to get it right & down to a "formula".... may just need more practice, but I'm NOT impressed with it.

I'd vote for a Sony cybershot!

I would suggest buying Digital Camera is of no use these days. Because day by day very good cameras are coming in Mobile handset & photographs can be down loaded from them in computer using bluetooth.It serves the purpose of Digital Cameras for begginer.

Here you go:

The best camera for under $200 is the Canon A550

* 7.1 Megapixel
*4X Optical Zoom
* Very good photo quality, noise levels low through ISO 400 (in good light)
* Well built for the price
* Very good performance
* LCD visible in low light
* Some manual controls
* AF-assist lamp, good low light focusing
* Good movie and continuous shooting modes
* Impressive software bundle
* Uses AA batteries; great battery life
* USB 2.0 High Speed support

According to dpreview.com, Best Buy has a 5 megapixel camera for $80-. The Fujifilm Finepix A500. If Best Buy is out, try Beach Camera on internet or Adorama. Where else can one find a 5 MP camera under $100-?

Canon Powershot models are the best beginner digitals by far. I suggest the A550 or the A540. On amazon you can get the A540 for less than $160. The A630s pretty good too, but I think that the A550 is the best beginner digicam. But I do love my A540.

This camera is not a very popular because its not all that readily available in India. But with 6MP sensor and 6x Optical zoom , price tag of Rs13k in India. I think Panasonic Lumix LZ5 is the best of the breed. It has all the automatic features that u can think of including image stabilisation. Check more about this at dpreview.com
