If using a digital camera, make sure you have a camera quality flash card; it makes a big difference. They do cost more but your follow up pictures when shooting action shots will not blur like they do with a basic flash card. I really like Sandisk Extreem. Hope this helps if you’ve experienced this problem.

You should also consider carrying a spare battery. There have been a few times where I have depleted my camera battery.

Megapixiels are not everything. The sensor size affects how much detail a camera can capture. For example, you can have a 12 megapixel camera, but if it doesn’t capture enough detail, than you don’t get what you expect from a 12 megapixel.

C143 EasyShare Kodak Camera is an awesome camera! It has 14 megapixels, 3x optical zoom, and it takes great pictures with a long-lasting battery! Automatically adjusts its setting to capture the scene that you are in!

If you are going to be taking pictures in caves or hiking with a lot of dust and dirt, it would be better to get a camera with an internal lens. The zoom isn’t as great, but then the dirt won’t get stuck in between lenses.

Also, you are probably better off buying electronics new. You know that nothing bad has been done to it and if there is a problem, you can take it back to the store and get it taken care of.

I have a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ40, and although it is large
(18 ounces), I like it because the image quality is very good and has 24x of optical zoom (25-600mm equivalent). I look forward to taking it camping and getting some cool photographs.

A digital camera would be nice, but considering some of the trips I go on, I don’t know if could survive! I just use those Kodak disposable cameras. Once I get back from my trip, I take it to Wal-Mart or Walgreens and get it developed and put on a CD, so I can have a digital copy on my computer to send to people or post on facebook.

I have the Nikon D5000 ($650)it is my favorite digital camera.I also have a Nikon Coolpix S8100 ($250) and a Canon Canon PowerShot SD1300 ($100).All of them are very well made and I highly recommend them.

I have a Panasonic Lumix zs1. It is really great. ($200-$250)
It has 12x-21.4x optical zoom, depending on what resolution you have it set at. It has resolution, quality, white balance, timer, sunset, fireworks, and many other great settings. It is about the size of your whole palm, and about 1 1/2 inches thick. It is a very good camera for its price. I love it!

I recently got a Pentax W90, Pentax was one of the first brands to make water proof cameras and it has a good 5x zoom plus a cool microscope mode. I recently took it on a month long sea kayaking expedition in Alaska and it handed it great. Also invest in a 10 $ floating wrist strap and lenmar is a good extra battery brand (11$ on Amazon)

Many newer digital cameras provide a large LCD screen as its only viewfinder. It looks great indoors. But in bright sunlight, it is virtually useless. It becomes very difficult to see as the LCD image gets washed out by the bright light. Trust me on this one, be sure to get a camera that also has an optical viewfinder you can look through.

I have the Kodak EasyShare C182 (about $80) and it’s great! I also have the Sony Cybershot DSC-S700 ($200) and Sony MHS-PM1 digital camcorder ($150). I like them all.

FREEZ PROOF

12.1 megapicles
lots of diffrent modes to use and program if you bother to learn how to use it
only X3 optical zoom though.
$350

yes, having your own digital camera would be cool, but I just use the disposable kind. So that way, I never have to worry about dropping my camera into the water or dropping it. They are also much cheaper!

You know nice things don’t just get handed to you. If you want a good digital camera you’re going to have to pay at least $200 and probably more, so get over it! Also to camera guy I’m going to have to say that from my limited experience with these features I would go with the Cannon Powershot because I’ve always found that zoom power and water proofing are more useful than megapixels and video modes. That’s just my opinion though.
