i need a really good digital camera for under 150 dollars for me mom. i found this one, but is it any good?

i dont like this one because its not rechargeable, which i really want

thanks



Posted by: johnyB_24

It's a good camera for general use,but it doesn't have a rechargeable battery.Instead it uses "2 x AA Included".



Posted by: jaggu_the_kingh

yea thats why i really dont want to buy it. other than that its pretty nice.

EDIT:
are these any good? i know there not rechargeable but they look nice and great priced.

The samsung one seems fine.

Or you could just get one of these:

I recommend the Polaroid. 6-megapixels, hardware accelerated to 8MP if you need it, good price, 12X zoom, and you can buy some rechargables with charger for really cheap from Wal Mart.

What are megapixels? *end sarcasm*

There is a cameraphone with 10-megapixel camera, and now a 40-megapixel camera...all you need is 5 megapixels MAX, and that'll blow up to a huge poster..

Talldude, it says ONE element weighs 55 pounds in which there are many. (15 to be exact)

Digital Medium format has always had higher resolutions since the sensor is so much bigger. If you were to take a 10MP P&S sensor and make it the size of medium format, you would have 100's of MPs but the quality would be horrible - just like the P&S.

Go to a camera store and play aournd with the cameras they have there. That way you'll be able to see them in action.
