Digital Cameras

[Bowbendr]

I have noticed a lot of you must have digital cameras. I am thinking about getting one myself. One that takes good pictures, , is durable and reasonably priced. Do you guys have any recommendations? I really would like to start taking more pictures not only of wildlife but in general.

Digitals make a great camera... I guess it all comes down to how much you want to spend. Id definatly get at least a 2.0 megapixil camera. The higher the megapixils the more it will cost.

If you looking for a basic point and shoot camera look at this. Fuji cam

This is My auction just so you know. It was purchased to go into a trailcam, but I never got around to doing it...
This is what Id say is a basic starter camera.
Then you go into the higher quality cameras, like a nikon coolpix 4500 or similiar. These cost around $500 used on ebay....

Good luck!

As always it comes down to tradeoffs. I bought a Nikon coolpix 5700 off the computer. Like most modern gadgets, the longer you wait the cheaper they get and my camera is no exception. I have only had this one but would not give it up for anything even tho it is damn expensive. It is like GOOD binoculars. I finally bit the bullet and bought the ones I have always wanted . Zeiss Victory 10x56. Should have done that years ago.

Buy a camera that stretches your budget. The 5700 is a 5 megapixel.

go with the Nikons. I have a Coolpix 5000 that is 5.24 MP and a Coolpix 4300 4 MP. The 4300 is more of a point and click style camera with a few of the more popular options. The 5000 has ALL the bells and whistles, Hot shoe etc. It was an earlier model which was replaced by the 5700 and now a 1100 (I think) Lot of choices out there.....if your impressed with someones pics ask what make/model they use and go from there. Usually 100$ a MegaPixel.
