Ok I'm gonna buy a camera :camera: tomorrow.. I think I am the last person on earth that doesn't have a digital camera these days, lol

I want something small, I'm not looking to become some photographer so nothing to complicated to use, but also soemthing that would take video too but longer than 30 sec, also has a rechargable battery not one that takes AA batteries or whatever, lol... and I am looking to spend no more than $300 I guess..

here are a few I like but not sure if they are any good or not??

Casio EX-Z60 Digital Camera
Kodak EasyShare V530 Digital Camera
Canon PowerShot SD30 Digital Elph Camera
Canon PowerShot SD450 Digital Elph Camera
Canon PowerShot SD600 Digital Elph Camera

I think I really like the Cannon Powershot cameras...do you think I could go wrong buying one of those?

I dunno.. any help before I go buy one would be great so I dont buy something I will end up hating, lol

Thanks in advance guys!! :goodjob:

hey the SD series in canon are GREAT for your average photographer. i bought my mom an sd400 over christmas and i HAD my sd200 for a yr (before my gf somehow broke it).

currently looking to get an sd450 myself and kicking myself cuz i missed dells super sale (they were goin for $240).

anyway, i do have a 10% off coupon to circuitcity if you want it, it's good on any purchase over $200.

heater, i suggest those cannons that you lsited, they give a great picture, easy usage and what not, small, and good if your going to blow things up to atleast 16x20, all the customers that i sell those too love that camera
