Digital Cameras We have our 42nd wedding anniversary coming up next Saturday, 1/14 and I need some ideas for purchase of a digital camera. We have never had one. :camera: We want something that is extremely EASY to learn how to operate. :) Something that is extremely EASY to put pictures on the computer. ;) Something that the settings are already there for us. Dare we ask for anything else??? hehe :D Would you tell us what we need to look for? I know nothing about them so make this "simple", please! We have the Consumer Guide from July 05 & it has an article in there but some of it I don't understand. :rolleyes: We need guidance as to where to get started or even a brand & model number if you dead set on a certain one. :cool: Are there other things we need to purchase that aren't included in the price of the camera? :mad: Anything else I "should" have asked but didn't? hehe :confused: Thank you so very much. I appreciate your help. :thumbup: :yorkiesar |
How much are you wanting to spend? I can recommend a camera if you give me a ballpark figure. |

Shoot, we're in our 60's and we look at it this way ..... you can't take it with you so we might as well enjoy ourselves while we can. :camera: :animal37 :thumbs up |
I just bought a Casio Exilim EXZ500? it is real easy to use. Has the 2.7 LCD screen, 5 megapixels and is stremlined and I just posted pics on here and had some printed and they turned out great! I too had been looking for awhile. These are the things I knew I wanted: At least 5 mexapixels At least a 2.5 LCD Screen) Bigger the better for my old eyes) Easy to use Fast shutter speed so that I can take pictures of my puppy who is always moving Antishake function because my hands aren't that steady. This is just what I wanted and I am very happy with my camera.JMO I am sure people with more experience with digital cameras will be able to give you more info. |

We got a Fuji Finepix S9500. It cost us £400. It is 9 megapixel and 2 inch LCD. Its an SLR so you have all the zoom functionality. |
I have a Canon Powershot S400 Digital Elph. I don't know anything really about the specifics, but it is a great camera and has video a well! I find it really easy to use. |
I would get either the one Chewy'sMom has or the Canon Digital Elph SD450. Here is the SD450: http://consumer.usa.canon.com/ir/con...&modelid=11939 Here is the SD400: http://consumer.usa.canon.com/ir/con...&modelid=11158 |
I have the Canon SD500 and i love it! I love all the products in the Canon lineup they are all great! so good luck with whichever you choose! :D |
A professional photographer on YT said always buy a Canon and I can see alot of you have a Canon. That will be my next one but this little Kodak Easy Share has done the job I need it for at this point anyway. I always recommend a Canon though ...mine was a gift. |
Thank you for all your input. I appreciate so many replying. I'm surprised. I'm still investigating and looking on the internet. It's so difficult as I want it for next weekend and everyone in town is out of stock due to Christmas. After this, I'm buying our anniversary gift before Christmas!!! I feel like I really do need the largest LCD on the computer. There are some out that have a 3" LCD so I'll probably go for one of them. Thanks! :thumbup: :) |
