Digital Camera advice
I am looking for a good digital camera for approximately $300. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

if you can spend a bit more, get an olympus with the 10x optical zoom. If you can't, get something with a decent optical zoom. Stay away from 1.3 Megapixel cameras, and digital zoom only cameras.

the olympus c-700
10x digital zoom 2.7 optical for and overal zoom of 27x or canon S-300 3x optical 2.5 digital. Small compact size. plus it looks cool the site is buydig The site looks kinda crappy, but they are reputable. They also have many awards. They will popup the executive kit link, which usually isnt that bad of a deal. Just close that and scroll to the actual info. Last edited by ribitch : 06-12-2002 at 10:51 AM. |

He means 10x optical zoom, and 2.7x digital. But yeah, that is the camera I'd reccomend also.

Nah, S-330 was higher than that. I got the S-200 w/additional 128mb card and shipping for $360 from Amazon. Last month I was in Bali and Antigua...pics were great. If you can afford an extra few dollars for the S-330 do it, but the 200 works just fine.
