Recommend a Digital Camera

Post by StarshipTitanic »

I'm looking for a fairly good camera that takes SD memory cards (so I don't waste all the ones from my last camera). I don't want to spend more than $150 on it, if possible. It would be used only as a vacation camera, nothing that requires extraordinary quality.

The Canon A400's pretty good. I got one for my mom for Christmas last year.
It's right at your $150 price point, takes SD cards, and has enough settings customizations to keep most people happy.
