What is the best digital camera to buy for someone just getting started? Don't mind ebaying it..under 200.00

I would like to get started with something that I can add lenses to and I’m also looking for something for my 16 year old to take good pics with as well. So what’s your opinion of good digital cameras?

Go with a subcompact digital camera with 7 megapixels, 3X optical zoom, 2.5″ LCD [238,000 pixels] and a regular viewfinder. Comes with a rechargeable lithium battery [which produces around 120 pictures via the LCD or 240 pictures via the viewfinder] and charger. Extra third-party lithium batteries sell for around $ 7.00. Stores 665 ulta-fine images on a 2-gig SD memory card and sells for $ 150.00 [without CA tax] thru Wednesday, December 12 at samys.com. It’s the Canon PowerShot SD1000 and they are selling very fast. Check out the 400+ rave reviews by very satisfied purchasers at amazon.com

Good luck!

I want a digital camera that takes photograhy-studio quality pictures, one that takes pictures of kids in motion, one that does black and white. What’s the best camera I can buy for $ 600 and under?

All of the major brands are good. Choose a brand that appeals to you. Then you have to think about getting a spare battery, what size memory card, if you want an extended warranty, how much you can afford, what size zoom, if you want manual controls, the size of the camera, finding a reliable place to purchase it, and the list goes on and on and on…….

The first thing to realize is that almost any digital camera will take good pictures. If more people would read the manual more than once, they would be able to take better pictures. Usually, the person assumes it is the camera when it could be them not knowing exactly what to do. Just give yourself more photographic knowledge by doing more reading on the internet.

I really believe buying a camera is an individual choice.
The person needs to read alot of reviews on cameras so they can decide on the features that they really want and need.
Go to the store and hold them so you can see if they feel comfortable in your hands. If possible, take some pictures in the store to check the quality of the pictures.
I can only give a suggestion of what to look for in a new digital camera.
Good Luck

Time for you to take a class in photography.

Your question shows you do not yet have the skills to take studio quality photos … It is not the camera, but the photographer that makes the image.

For under $ 600 you may find a camera that will do what you want … a used DSLR, but you will still have to buy a lens.

I would only go for Canon, Sony, or Nikon. You can get a good sony camera for $ 499 or the top-of-the-line Canon 10Megapixels for $ 399. Im not sure with Nikon but you can check it out at Amazon.com , Newegg.com or Bestbuy.com
