Advice on Digital Cameras?
 

Yeah umm I need a nice digital camera for my photo`s class im taking cause the one they lent me is garbage... 1.2 mp`s"mega pixels" and its crap for zoom in...

I wanna get one for myself anyways.... do you guys know any really good ones for around $250 USD?

I want like 5 mp`s if you can find one....

i found this

yeah my sister has a Powershot A65 and my mom has a A75 and they never have problems or anything, execpt when my sister put the camera on the floor to take a picture of her chinchilla and his bath dust shit got in it.

If the lense sucks, it wont matter whether it is a 9 mega pixel, it will just be high resolution poop. Canon uses great lenses.

Canon and Kodak are the best.

What are you using it for? I highly doubt you have any reason to get a 5mp camera. Stick with 3 or 4mp.

My recommendation: http://www2.newegg.com/Product/Product. ... 6830170019

2nd choice: http://www2.newegg.com/Product/Product. ... 6830120167

1. no. good camera but theres better on the market for the same price
2. not even close to $250



All these camera's are under $300, and offer 5mp. Check out each camera, as the site offers an indepth review and sample images from each.

If the link doesn't work just go to http://www.dpreview.com yourself, go to buying guide and search around for what you want. The only thing you really need to change are the price, sensor photo detectors (mp), and other shit such as zoom capabilities, if it has manual zoom, etc.


ps: change that fucking avatar.

I was not recommending it, I just love that camera. I got to use one at my school which kicked ass.

I've got a Canon Powershot A95 and it's fucking awesome. Highly recommended.

Its hard to reccomend just any digital camera without knowing what your main use of it will be for. This is my Kodak DX6490, I'm still getting the hang of it but I love it...

Well I`m basically going to use it for around friends and taking photo`s of like nice views and stuff... such as sunsets and all that stuff...

So... yeah... thats what i need one for..

So you should make sure the one you get has a nice zoom on it or get an SLR digital camera. For $250 you're not going to get a great one for nice views but then its up to you how good you want the photos to be. I'm guessing you're not into photography so go for a 4mp one with a zoom. Can't offer any examples tho, sorry, cept maybe this hot little one

Buy whatever you get online, check and compare reviews, shop around...

I like my d70 alot more. I've used the Rebel a few times at our school and wasn't impressed with it. The layout and functionality of it sucked overall, but it does generate good images.
