Here is the thread for all the discussion THE THREAD discussing cameras Here is the link for the camera link to camera and here is part of the convo Juju2bigdog Member 10-27-2000 Wednesday, October 11, 2006 - 10:21 pm -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Abby7, you are in luck! I just bought a camera. It is great, easy to use, around $200, on sale, of course. Hang on a minute while I get you the details! I think I went to cnet.com and searched there for best compact camera. One of the things I like about it is it has a viewfinder, which more and more cameras are not having anymore so they can cram more stuff in smaller spaces, but a viewfinder is a lifesaver when it is bright out and you can't see a thing on your LCD screen. Be back in a minute. I am getting some stuff together for you.

Juju2bigdog Member 10-27-2000 Wednesday, October 11, 2006 - 10:45 pm -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Oh hell, Abby7, you are breaking my heart! I thought I got a great deal at $199 with a $20 off coupon. I bought it online at circuitcity.com. Just went there now. It is now on sale for $144 from regular price of $269. HP R717, 6 megapixel, 3x optical zoom. http://tinyurl.com/qxolo I did not get an extra battery. It has its own propietary lithium ion battery, which you charge in the camera with an A/C adapter that comes with the camera. I am very good about keeping my camera fully charged, so an extra battery is not a concern to me. Yes, you will need a bigger camera card immediately. It takes an SD card, which is a very common kind. All the office supply stores carry them. From memory, Office Max has the best deal on SD cards this week. I would get one or two 1 Gb cards. This camera takes great pictures. It is very easy to use. It is absolutely adequate for an amateur user. Go look in my folder for some sample pictures. They might be an archive or two back.

well it was more fun than i imagined. going shopping at 5am. we were lucky. a new walmart just opened by us. so it wasnt a mob scene tho the parking lot had a good load. at the further walmart there was a mob scene because there are a number of department stores all concentrated in one area. we went for the tv and printer. the dvd/vcr was an impulse buy on my part. it was half what i paid for mine last year and i know my folks' is giving them trouble so i know they are going to love getting it and that is another list finished finally! ETA and wrapped
