What is a good point and shoot camera to buy for under $200?

Point and Shoot Camera for Vacation?

  • Hello. I am going on a trip in 48 hours and need a point and shoot camera. Here are the most important features in order: 1a. shutter speed: The camera I have now has around 10 seconds between photographs. Makes it impossible to capture the moment. I need a camera where it is quick refresh between photographs 1b. Zoom. 4x zoom is not enough. 10x is preferable. I like to take pictures of outdoors and the surroundings, as well as people. 2. Price Under $200 3. AA batteries preferred to rechargeable Time is critical, so I can not order online and will need to go to sam's club, Walmart, best buy, etc. Thank You!

  • Answer:

    The Canon Powershot SX130 seems to fit your criteria really well. It has 12x optical zoom, takes AA battieres, and costs right about $200 or probably a little less, depending on where you buy it. http://usa.canon.com/cusa/consumer/products/cameras/digital_cameras/powershot_sx130_is#Specifications I'm sure you will be able to find it at one of the stores you mentioned. They had this camera in stock the last time I visited Best Buy.
