camera opinions?

[98warrior]

I'm gona look into getting a new camera soon, dont know really what to look for in one but how many megapixles it is and thats about it. Duno how much I wana spend but I'm not gona buy a junk one. I like taking pics and moms camera just doesnt get the job done, its a kodak easyshare c310 and it sucks. So give me some things to look for in a good camera or suggest some good camera makes and models.

I agree with that.. I have 3 canons. The last I bought was the RebelXT and 2 lenses. Its the best camera I ever had. But big and expensive.

1st you need to know how much u want to spend.
Then within that price range what options do u think are most important.
Do NOT consider digital zoom in your options. Digital zoom manipulates pixels to create the zoom effect.
Only look at optical zoom, LCD screen size, movies if u want them, overall size of the camera, macro, etc.

For general pic taking you really don't need more than 5 MegaPixels.

I have the Canon Powershot A460 as my smallest camera and it is awesome... I don't think I paid more than 150.00 for it

i've been using a nikon d40 dslr camera. haven't been able to buy lenses for it yet other then the kit lense issued with it. great speed, crisp photos, and full manual settings. got it all for under 700, but i'm pretty serious about photography.
