You never purchase something like a polaroid camera of any type. They are known for the quick instamatic crap. The photo quality just isn't there. Stick with Sony (my favorite), Kodak (pictures are just OK), Canon (extra lens are expensive - whew), and Nikon camera between $300 & $800 for 8mp. These are the best digital camera on the market. The little Sony 5mp credit card style camera ($449) takes awesome pictures. Make sure you get at least 3.2mp or don't purchase it. You want to be able to print at least 8x10 and you want the best quality. I purchased a super easy to use Kodak camera for my shop. No special effects or anything with the camera but it's 3.2 megapixel and cost just $99. Decent photos that can be enhanced with some editing software.

Despite many peoples beliefs you can find cameras below the $150 price range that take good to excellent quality photographs, but they just don't come with any of the added special effects that people might enjoy like a close up feature. But megapixel is important. 3.2 or better at least.

On the megapixel thing... be carefull to read and make sure that is not like 5mp enhanced. It might really be a 2mp camer that digitally enhances the image to 5mp. That never works and it generally looks like shit. Make sure it really a 3.2mp camera or better.

I have a Sony DSC-F717. It's a 5mp camera with a 10X zoom and is loaded with extra shit. It can switch from auto to manual, has two nighttime settings, built in flash, and can shoot video as well. The base pivots so the 2"x3" viewer can be facing up while holding the camera low. We won't even wast time about the price of the camera when I bought it. But it takes incredible photos that will print beyond 11x17.

I also have a 2mp Sony that can take great images if you're only shooting for the internet and high-quality isn't an issue. That cameras is no longer available since most decent camera's now are above 3mp.

get a Sony F-828...I got mine as a kit on Ebay. 8M pixel shots are awsome, Just wish they made a monitor that could display them in real size.

hunt Ebay for the camera you want...there are some deals there.
