Opinion on a digital camera

[Slurred]

Text
Looks like a decent camera for a good price. 4MP for 135 shipped seems like a good deal to me. Anyone have any experience with this camera? or brand even? Thanks in advance for feedback or suggestions on other cameras in this range

that looks pretty cheap to me... I would never buy something like that.

I could be wrong on that particular one, but I'd say you'd almost always best served by getting a digital camera built by a good camera company (canon, nikon, fuji, etc.)

I'd take a lower MP rating on a quality brand camera over a higher MP rating on a generic or non-camera brand.

you can get a Canon A85 online for ~$200 shipped, which is what i did about a month ago. a good camera, from a reputable name brand, for not much more than that one you linked.

Sometimes, brand=quality

I second this advice. Go name brand. Best recent Hot Deal (may still be alive) was/is the Canon A60 for $85 at Outpost.

Go with a brand name like Canon or Nikon. If you ever have trouble with it, you can go to the Canon or Nikon forums at DPReview.com, where there are literally hundreds of knowledgeable shutterbugs who will respond to your questions in minutes.
