What is a good cheap digital camera to buy?

by NobleArc

I need to find a new digital camera that has a printer dock if possible and takes good pictures and videos. Right now I have a Kodak CX7300 and have read some bad reviews on kodak cameras and their lack of help online. so anyone out there know of any good ones?

Thanks for your help in advance.

Answer by Roberto S.
canon A590 or anyone above it is a good camera.

Answer by Jim A
there are lots of good digital cameras – none of them made by Kodak. But, there are no good cheap cameras – quality is never cheap.

Answer by Explorer
You should check the Digital Camera Buying Guide at http://www.tolmol.com/Digital%20Camera%20Buying%20Guide%20(India)/group/5971

I m sure you’ll get sufficient help to make a buying decision.

Answer by Tony
Printer docks are something you can buy separately and if the camera is cheap enough it ain’t a big deal. The Canon Powershot and Nikon Coolpix are both good choices. Here are some good solid deals, several including a bunch of extra things: http://www.cameta.com/index.cfm?fa=display.search&page=1&refine=y&Category=Point%20and%20Shoot%20Digital%20Cameras&Price=%24250%20and%20%20%24500

Hey,

I just brought the kodak digital camera c613, do anyone know how to review videos with sound through the camera? Is that feature avaliable? I can’t find that information anywhere, not even the manual.

Here’s some more info on the Kodak C613:

Answer by JBT
According to Kodak, the videos can be played in the camera (which I assume you know.) The Kodak instructions do not say whether or not sound is audible in camera during playback.
