Camera Recommendations

Looking to buy a new digital camera for my wife. Looking to spend about $150. What's the best deal for the money?

Thanks,
Jay

Sounds like a P&S is what you are looking for. There's a bunch out there in that price range and all do a pretty fair job. We use a P&S at work and because multiple people use it and it is likely to be dropped or subjected to other abuses. We've used a Panasonic for the past several years, but is suffered one to many drops and recently replaced it with a Nikon. Both work well and take fine photos if you use them within their limitations.

Yep, P&S sounds like the way to go. You could get a Nikon, Canon, Olympus, Kodak, or Panasonic. I don't know of a specific model that I'd recommend, but all those folks make good, solid point & shoot cameras.

I am partial to Sony point and shoots.
My wife bought a $50.00 Olympus at Walmart for our six year old. It takes pretty good pics.
