For my digital photography, I use an Olympus SP-500UZ. It's a few years old and 6-mega pixels but still takes very nice pictures. I like it The coolpix I have heard are great little digitals. swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff

bernard1 New Member United States 9 Posts	Posted 04/22/2009 12:45 am Oh I can also get a Canon EOS 10D for $150, would this be better? Report this Post to the Staff

The Canon would work well also. $150 is a fair price I believe. swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff
