Shocked Help with digital camera

Does anybody have any advice on buying a digital camera? Which brand is the best, which model, general recommendations on digital cameras, and the best place either online or B&M to buy them?

TIA!

I would suggest a good name brand (I like Olympus). Check out consumer reviews at a place like epinions.com from people who have actually used products. In my experience, and from looking at other people's digital pictures, I would definitely not buy a digital camera that is under 3 mega pixels. You will regret it, and kick yourself for wasting your money.

Technology has really advanced, and prices have come down so low. Make sure to do your comparison shopping on the model you end up choosing, and if you are interested in buying from an online merchant you don't have experience with, check out their ratings at bizrate.com and resellerratings.com

Big grin

My personal experience is this: DO NOT buy a camera less then 2.0 mega pixels, not matter how great the deal. Like other technologies, they are upgrading everyday. You simply won't get a good picture for less megapixels.

I just bought a new digital HP 320 and I love it. You can get this at WalMart even for $150. Check it out at Amazon and HP.com. It recieves great reviews, and I can tell you it may seem basic and simple, but has all of the bells and whistles.

I bought mine at Sams, where you should check out any digital camera. But, packaged just for Sam's club , HP has a special package deal. You get the 7150 HP Photosmart printer, along with the HP 320 camera in the same box for $177. That is an AWESOME deal! And, the printer prints beautiful pictures as I discovered only an hour after coming home with everything and clicking away!

Let me know if you have any further questions about this deal. I would be glad to help.

Jan
