digital camera suggestions
I need to get a new digital camera in the next month.

I'd like something that takes good pics, but also does quality video as well.

Don't have a ton of money to spend, so if anyone has suggestions on a reasonably priced camera that is of good quality, please post em up!

LINKS TOO if you got em!!!!

Thanks... Happy Humpday!

I bought the Nikon Cool Pix camera after my Sony Cybershot was stolen. It takes awesome pictures when I am not drunk, and the video is good quality with surprisingly decent sound.

I have this one:


Very pleased with my purchase. I think it was ~$300.

Oh, and I have an SD memory card for my old one. Would be cool if the new one took it too, but I dunno much about those things and if they are universal.

don't bother posting it. That's the very last feature I want.

They are pretty much universal.... Sony likes to fuck their customers, so you have to buy a Sony memory card for some of their cameras.

All others should take any SD memory card.

kick ass. Yeah, I don't think I want a Sony. I think I'd prefer to stick with actual camera manufacturers. Yours looks nice. And $300 I could do. Don't really wanna go much higher than that.

The last one I had was a Gateway DC-M42 that my dad bought me for xmas. It was alright, but the part of the lens that moves in and out (scope?) is off track and now the thing won't focus.

It never took great pics anyway. Didn't adjust well with the light.

I had the same problems with my Cybershot... wasn't too sad about them stealing it...

I'd definitely suggest a Nikon. I would also suggest speaking with the LekBrothers as it would be safe to assume they know more about cameras than anyone else on this site

I have a Sony cybershot and it'll take a generic memory card. I love it. The babies spilled coffee in my last one and I went out and bought another one the same day. Except the new one's pink. Yay pink!

P.S. The track thing will happen with any digital camera if you get something in it. I got sand in one, one time and it never closed properly again (not a cybershot. I think it was a Kodak Easyshare).

Oh? Well, I am pretty sure I had to buy a Sony Memory Stick Duo for mine since it was the only thing that would work with my Cybershot. Either way, I hated that camera. It always took blurry pictures, even when I was sober, and it took horrible pictures at night.

Maybe I just got a shitty model though, because I've heard several people boast about their Cybershots and their pictures turn out rather well.

I <3 my Nikon.
