Digital Cameras?

Question

What is the best digital camera for under $250.00?

Answer 1

I think the best deal of the season is the Canon Powershot A530. It has been on sale at numberous big box stores below $130. That's a good price on a good camera. The A530 was selling for $180 not too long ago. I've recommended this camera within my own family, so I'll be living with the results of this recommendation right along with you. You can use the rest of your budget to buy a decent memory card.

The Canon Powershot A540 is the big brother to this excellent camera and it has reviewed quite well, also. I have seen it selling for $170 this season in all the usual places.

Many stores have the A540 for $170. Add a decent memory card and you're still under budget.

Hi,
I shop a lot and to save time and money I use cheapest prices search engine. Almost every merchant is there and over a million consumer written reviews. You will find many other ways that will help you with questions.
You can shop online or you can go to a merchant and use the toll free phone number if you feel more comfortable shopping like that.
There are merchant reviews, over one million product reviews, compare by brand and a lot more. I hope I helped you and I wish you good luck.
p.s. there are over one million consumer written reviews!

Answer 3

I had the Canon A520 (which is the 4Mp of the 530) and I really like it, it has nice colors and features.

Maybe newer Canons that are below your 250 limit should be faster.
