Good digital camera for under $200?

[AlexGT]

Hi guys!

I want to buy digital camera for under $200, any suggestions? What gives the best bang for the buck under that price? Should I save some more?

So far I have seen the following:

Canon A75
Kodak Easyshare 3.1 MP
HP 3.1 MP

Others brand/models are welcome.

Thnx!
Alex

a75 is best imho of the ones ya listed but i belive it is around 279 the nikon NIK COOLPIX2100 is on sale for `175 now at circuitcity

My advice would be to save and go for the Canon A75.

I havnt heard of the A75
My buddy just got an A70,,, and it NIIIIIIIIIIICE !!!!!!!
It was about $180 I think.

Dont get the HP, HP arent all that great at cams.

The Canonsa are GREAT for the $$$.

I have the A10 as a cheapo beat around cam, and MAN is it impressive for being the LOW model.

I bought both of my daughters A-60's for Christmas and I own a G1 -- get the best cannon you can afford A-60, A-70, A-75 -- it's all good!

Go to www.dcresource.com and click on reviews and info -- lots of cameras, reviews, AND searches of who has the best prices. Just make sure you get it from the best REPUTABLE dealer.

This is a GREAT site.

ot i was just looking on the web about a panosic lumix that has 12x optical zooom that is so sweet it apears to have good reviews but it is like 550

How about a lightly used Digital Elph S110?

I second the A75 (replaced the A70) but it lists for $300 so doubtful will get it anywhere for near $200. Also whatever you get you'll want a bigger memory card for sure and helpful are an extra battery and a card reader although you can get buy without at first if need be.

It is a great camera though, good color, good macros, and even takes video !
