Its nice for your basic picture taking and low quality videos. If you only want to spend 120 that is what I would get. Here is my photobucket account, take a look at the pics it takes. now keep in mind there are different settings used for different things and most of the time I dont take enought time to focux the camera.... e_baer - Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

| I have pretty much settled on getting Canon PowerShot SD850 IS: Digital Photography Review , but the least I've been able to find it for is around $250 so that may be more than you want to consider.

| Digital cameras have two types of zoom,optical and digital.Optical is good and digital generally takes some pretty lousy pictures.To take really great pics of your reef you should get a 6x optical zoom. |

| Thats what I meant!!! My dad always looks for cams and says blah cause they have great megapixels but no zoom

| Should i just pay the 3 or 4 bucks instead of ordering. It's not much more at either Best Buy or wal mart. We went to both and i don't remember where it was. Good thing it's just 2 places, right. lol |

| Save your money and buy a Digital SLR!!! In the long run it will be TOTALLY worth it!!!!

| I recently bought a Cannon XTI for 700$'s.While it is a fantastic camera its good way from her budget. |

| The main things to look for in digital cameras are megapixels and optical zoom. I ignore digital zoom because it is essentially cropping the picture size in the camera rather than you doing it yourself on a CPU. Kodak cameras are geared toward easy use for the picture taker and don't come with the customization options that you can do with many other brands. I you and your husband like to keep things simple, Kodak cameras are a decent camera. If you like to adjust camera settings or wouldn't mind paying a little more, you could get a different camera that takes nicer pictures. Cost vs Quality vs Ease of use.
