What type of digital camera should I buy?

  • I am going to Central America for a 3 month back pack trip and need to buy a digital camera. I don't know what to look for but I was thinking one of the new touch screens would be fun but I don't know if practical since I will be traveling everywhere. I don't want to spend more than $300. Hope someone has some ideas.

  • Answer:

    I wouldn't go with an SLR. I would go fo a digi. Much smaller and easier to use since you're going to be on the go. Also holds I think up to 2 gigs(SD cards). Another thing is you can get a really nice small one with tons of features on it for way less than $300.00 Personally I wouldn't spend that much myself. I would just get it free at prizevolcano.com

i love my Casio Exilim. i was starting on a two week driving tour of the west when my other camera crapped out. i stopped in a Walmart and bought this camera at a reasonable price and then bought a memory card that would hold about 700 pictures. it was an easy camera to learn to use and i took some great pictures on that trip. since then i've learned a lot more about the extra features and my pictures get better and better. last time i was 4 wheeling in the woods, i lost it...when i went back looking for it, i found it...it had fallen out of my pocket and i had run over it...i felt like crying because i had gotten so attached to it. guess what? it worked just fine!!! i can recommend this one, it has performed well for me for over two years now. enjoy your trip...i am envious of your adventure.

I have a canon powershot A510 - I think it is one of the cheapest Canon cameras and I have taken it around the world with me and it was brilliant. I didnt want a more expensive camera in case it was lost or stolen.. so this was perfect for me :)

The Olympus 790SW is an incredibly durable camera for your Indiana Jones kind of adventure vacation. It's waterproof, shockproof, dust proof and even freeze proof (not that you'll need the that one). You can read more about it here: http://ezinearticles.com/?The-Best-Waterproof-Digital-Camera-Anywhere&id=1027162 The Canon PowerShot A570 or SD1000 are pretty good choices as well.
