So i'm looking for a camera and 200 dollars is my limit. I'm looking for a camera with good picture quality (for the price) that has the ability to take video w/ sound. I would prefer a camera that has or can be upgraded to a lithium ion battery but not necessary. I plan on upgrading the memory card.
Here's what i've found so far: kodak easyshare m1093 IS canon powershot a590 IS Any thoughts on these or if you know of a better alternative feel free to post. This will be my first camera so any other advice is appreciated. Thanks. |

From my own personal experience, I'd stay away from the Nikon Coolpix if you got a Nikon point and shoot. Frist one I had lasted a good 3 years or so, but second one only lasted about 6 months
 I think a Canon Powershot would be a nice choice, those are what I was looking into before I got my dslr camera. -------------------- "A true car enthusiast can see the potential in any car"
