Digital cameras
Ok I have seen so many nice pictures up here of proteges and I was wondering just what kind of digital cameras you guys have? I need a cheap digital camera asap and need to know what you guys and gals feel about the ones that you own. I would like it if you could post some sample pics, tell me about it-(how many pics can it hold, usb, software, batteries, etc...)
Also, I'm not looking to spend more than $200 at the most on this...so don't go posting some pics from some $2000 camera please.:D Thank you very much! |
I really like the Kodak digitals. :/ I have an older Kodak DC210 Plus.

My Canon A10 can be purchased for $150.00!! It's 3X optical zoom (+3X digital) uses 4 AA batteries, and has unbeliveable battery life! Stores images on compact flash cards (128 meg cards are $39.00 and =400+ photos) Has LCD viewfinder. Does a great job even at twice the price!!:cool:
|
i have the canon s-30 and payed over $800 cdn for it, so i think its alittle out of your price range
|
Sony Cybershot DSC-F707 for me. Takes awesome pictures and has nightshot for those cool Desert Storm effects.
|
Kodak DX3500 here.. i love this camera, yes there are some better ones but you can't beat this one for features/price
only $250CAD |
if you really want to be able to do cool effects but don't wanna blow 1g... then ya shouldn't even be lookin at digitals dude... just get a 35mm SLR... the Nikon F55, or the Canon Rebel G are both REALLY FREAKIN nice cameras with all the adjustments (aperture, contrast, shutter speed, etc...), both come with 20-80 AF lenses and the canon G even has 3d matrix metering which'll let you do those cool merged multi-photo action shots they have in snowboard magazines (where you see multiple frames of a guy pulling an inverted 360 all in a single photo). They run about $429.99CDN for the complete kit (camera body w/built in flash, lens, carry-bag)... Once i pay off my P5, I'm prolly gonna pick one up (that is unless i have a LOT of cash and can afford a digital SLR!!! :D).

check out the Canon Elph S200, I have it and it works great! super compact in a brushed aluminum casing. 2.1 megapixel with 2x optical zoom, mini-movie capability, various special effects. best of all, you can get it for $245 now!!!
go to www.spoofee.com and check out their deal on how to get one of these for $245 from Dell.com |
i am a huge fan of fuji cameras. i had one of thier point and shot 35mm cameras, and it would never give me a blank picture, and always give me one extra picture per roll of film. now, i sport a fuji 4900:
http://ebay1.ipixmedia.com/abc/M28/_...94f48c/i-1.JPG this is probably a high end consumer digi-cam, as it has all the features you could possibly want. i got mine for $500, but the only place to get them now is ebay. i would recommend the fuji 2800, which has similar features but not as many bells and whistles as the 4900, and run in the $200-300 range. check it out here: Fujifilm 2800 http://www.fujifilm.com/JSP/fuji/epa...epix2800_1.jpg |

I use a Kodak DC4800 with zoom. I love this camera. I have 128MB flash card so I can hold a lot of pics. Battery life can sometimes be a problem so I bought an extra battery

Kodak DX3900
http://www.kodak.com/MEDIA/ProductCa...3900Xlarge.jpg
Pretty good - 3.1MP (more than enough, 8x10 looks great), 2x Optical (wish it had more, look at newer models), 3X digital (ignore this, ruins images!) and 8MB included memory. Relatively limited (advanced/optical) features, but easy snap-and-go convenience. Average battery life, additional batteries and a charger are a must with ANY digital camera! I bought a 64 and one 128MB card, and an additional CompactFlash reader. Also remember that if you are not entirely satisfied with the feature set of a camera, you can buy accessories for pretty cheap - 7x, 10x fixed, 2x telephoto, 0.5x wide-angle lenses, and a cheap adapter for my camera cost $90 total pus hipping at http://www.kodak.com/US/en/corp/stor...ml?CATID=20134. For under 300 (around 250 now) - a pretty good deal! I've been told Nikons and Canons (not the ELPHs) take the best pictures, and the former offers the most options/features but both are expensive brands. Avoid HP/Polaroid at all costs. Kodak/Fuji/Samsung are good compromises, and Sony is overpriced for their limited feature sets, but som Sonys have excellent Carl Zeiss lenses (outside your, and my, price range anyway!) |
here's a pic of the Canon S200 ELPH :D
look how small it is!!! http://www.steves-digicams.com/2002_.../s200_size.jpg |
