So I am having a hard time deciding on a digital camera to buy, and this will be my first. I’m not looking for a top of the line, artistic photo taking digital camera, but I don’t want to settle for something that will break within a few weeks. You know just something for family vacations, or out with my friends. So I’ve narrowed my choices down to four.

Kodak Easyshare C913- $109.47
Casio Exilim EX-z80- $124.46
Fujifilm FinePix Z20fd- $139.47
Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W120- $119.47

or Canon Powershot SD1100-IS- $159.47
Kodak is no good, cheep parts…and it shows in the picture quality
Casio has a great self portrait mode.Its ok
Fujifilm has a poor lens, and still hasn’t improved, yet.
sony…no comment
I do recommend Canon – PowerShot 8.0-Megapixel Digital ELPH Camera
None of the above. Have used the Sony and Kodak.
Go check out a Nikon Coolpix for a camera that will last longer.
When you find the model you want, check on eBay for better price.
While most of the cameras out there are really good, I would choose Canon over Nikon because it seems like more camera for the money. Some would say Canon withholds their best technology for high end cameras and Nikon implements their best at all levels. Before you decide, read all the text and links in the information below because it will help you know what to look for in a camera.
There is no one particular place to get great buys, but you may see something below that really helps you find the best buy. Click on the first link in the information below for an example then search for your camera of choice at the upper left. Camera prices at this link change often.
Just saw this camera at Best Buy and think it is a great camera and a best buy. It has an optical viewfinder, image stabilizer, auto focus, and uses NiMH rechargeable batteries. Read as much of the following as you can for other information and help with choosing a camera.
Canon A590IS $149.99 at Best Buy store yesterday. …
There are so many cameras out there it is difficult to say which is best, but digital is definitely the way to go. The second source link will be very helpful as it list most of the cameras out there with prices. The following information should help you know what to look for in a camera.
What gives a camera its picture quality?
The short answer is that it is mostly the skill of the photographer that produces high quality pictures. The lens and camera are very important, but the ability to set the scene, adjust the cameras settings, and hold the camera very still or use a tripod with auto or remote shutter actuation when required is what gets the great pictures.
In new cameras, look for optical viewfinders (LCD invisible in bright sun) and check battery prices. High mega pixel settings take longer to process and may not be needed unless required for very large pictures or enlarging small parts of big pictures. Maximum print size for a 3 mega pixel setting is 8 x 10 inches. … …
Lots of great camera tips in these two links. … …
Check this more for the money camera. FUJIFILM – FinePix 10.0-Megapixel Digital.
Life time Warranty (Parts & Labor).
Wide-angle shooting, a 12x optical zoom and picture stabilization mode combine in this camera for exceptional shooting performance, even at a distance. Plentiful scene modes, autofocus and automatic white balance controls make this camera a snap to operate. You may be able to find it on the Internet for a lower price. … …
This could be the best slim line camera with a viewfinder. It’s PINK! … …
The information about my camera is just to show that you don’t need the biggest and best. Just know how to use the one you have.
My camera has 5.2 mega pixel, but I use 3 most of the time because it gives great results, is faster, and takes less memory. Also, it only has a 3 x optical zoom and 7 x digital zoom. I never use the digital zoom because making pictures larger works better on the computer. This is an old camera, but everyone is impressed with the quality pictures it takes … like magic.
Check with the Geeks in several stores and compare prices. Ask what cameras they own, but don’t believe everything you hear. Once you select a camera read all about it in the owner’s manual. Just learned that my camera has red-eye prevention and correction. It also has adaptive lighting. You may be able to view owners manuals at this link, but will need to Login. …
The source links will show most of the cameras out there with prices and help make your digital cameras work better.
all these cameras will give you nice images but since Fuji make their lens, I’d go with them, how ever Nikon and Canon beat these contenders so maybe you should look there
Well you finally got it right. Canon PowerShot SD1100 IS.
8 megapixels, 3X optical zoom, has image stabilizer, and above average image quality. “next shot delay” quicker than most for a point and shoot. Selling between $160-$170-.
The Canon.
I have it, really great camera.
