Kodak C180 Check Price!!	Pros - Kodak AF 3x optical aspheric zoom lens - 2.4-inch LCD screen -Perfect Touch Technology - Face detection - Blur reduction - Indoor/Outdoor color display Cons - Picture stabilization only works when flash is on. - Can’t handle larger than 4x6 photos too well. - Slow to load after taking a picture.	Great camera not only for experienced users, but beginners as well. Kodak is a very good camera for beginners, because they map out things on their devices in an easy-to-understand manner. The price is great, because this way the customer isn’t investing too much into one camera as they learn more about the qualities they like/dislike.	A camera for those just beginning their photography journey. Rating:
Canon PowerShot SX210IS Check Price!!	Pros - 14x optical zoom. - Optical Image Stabilizer. - Enhanced image stabilization. - 28mm wide-angle lens. - PureColor System LCD. - Stereo Sound. - HDMI output. - New: scene modes, improved Dynamic mode, better image stabilization. Cons - Controls are a bit tricky for beginners. - Microphone is a bit scratchy when in windy weather. - Unpredictable with lighting.	Canon really made some great updates for this device. The image stabilization is much better, which is going to make their customers very, very happy. However, after the previous issues people have had, I’m not sure they are going to be willing to pay this price.	A Canon fan who is going to notice the changes made for the better, and not mind that there is still quite a bit of work to be done in the future. Rating:
Canon PowerShot SD1400IS Check Price!!	Pros - Many exposure controls, good for all types of weather/lighting - Amazing audio quality - Optical Image Stablilizer that fights against blur while taking pictures - Large LCD screen for better control - Smart AUTO helps select settings for you - Smart Shutter helps you get a better shot the first time Cons - Video quality better than picture quality - Pictures come out soft - Poor lens quality	Yes, this camera has some great capabilities but with a bad lens, those things are all scratched out. It seems to me that the image stabilizer doesn’t work as well as it should and that’s fine for people who don’t mind taking a picture a second or third time. However, if you want a consistent camera, this is probably not for you.	A camera for someone who wants a camera, doesn’t care much about settings, mishaps etc. If you are an experienced photographer, this camera will most likely let you down. Rating:
Nikon Coolpix L22 Check Price!!	Pros - Camera recognizes what features you need active at the time of each photo to help stabilize. - Automatically takes photos when someone smiles. - Two movie modes included. Cons - Not rechargeable. - Fairly large in size.	This camera has a lot of great features, but it almost seems like they’re trying to make up for the fact that the pictures are blurry. The camera doesn’t seem very consistent to me. If you aren’t looking for high quality photos then it should be fine.	A camera for a minimal user, someone who doesn’t care as much about the quality and consistency of the camera but capturing memories. Rating:
Nikon Coolpix L110 Check Price!!	Pros - Clear Color Display helps fight brightness and reflection HD movie capable. - Sport Continuous Mode lets you take 20 consecutive pictures in about 2 seconds. - Easy Auto Mode takes over, allowing you to take shots without messing with settings. Cons - Record times are short. - Microphone cannot capture noises more than a few feet away clearly.	This camera is great for taking photos, but videos; not so much. Although the camera is HD capable, the time limit on videos is a bit short and the microphone doesn’t capture subjects more than a few feet away with enough clarity. Overall, a really nice camera though.	This camera is great for a very active person, one who wants to capture those moments that usually are missed. Also for anyone who doesn’t want to have to worry about settings and take pictures without the extra worry. Rating:
Canon EOS Rebel T2i Check Price!!	Pros- Fantastic range. - CMOS Image Sensor creates amazing clarity in almost any environment, even alternating between light and dark. - Advanced EOS Movie Mode. - Dual-layer sensor now has 63-zones. - More useful button layout. - Wider LCD monitor. - Compatible with SDXC memory cards as well as all Cannon EF and EF-S lenses. - Many software upgrades compatible with Windows, Mac etc. Cons- Difficult to understand video shooting for less experienced individuals - Lens doesn’t work as well for videos - Microphone picks up noise it shouldn’t, like lens grinding	This is a great camera for taking pictures. Whether you are an experienced photographer or a beginner in the field, the camera is very easy to understand and learn. However, the video portion is a bit more complex and usually customers will modify their camera because the lens isn’t truly made for video.	This camera is great for most people as far as pictures go, but videos would be better for an experienced individual who is willing to modify the camera. Rating:
Canon PowerShot SX130IS Check Price!!	Pros - Shoots HD videos with stereo sound. - 12x wide-angle optical zoom. - Many Scene Modes for videos and images to make things more interesting. - Smart Flash. - Large LCD screen for better viewing capabilities. Cons - Battery not rechargeable. - Battery life is very short.	Overall this sounds like a very good camera, but the fact that the battery life is so short makes all the positives a bit iffy. If the camera can only handle about 50 shots or a short video before going dead, not too much can be accomplished. If there is a fix for this problem, then this camera would be pretty amazing.	A camera good for a basic user who doesn’t take too many shots or videos at once. Rating:
Canon PowerShot SD1300 IS Check Price!!	Pros - 28mm wide-angle lens. - 4x optical zoom - Smart AUTO mode selects from camera settings for you, so you can focus on taking the picture fast. - 15 Shooting Modes; including Low Light Mode. Cons - Doesn’t come with memory card. - Viewfinder no longer available. - Doesn’t have HD movie mode.	This camera is great for all kinds of people, either experienced or beginners. Photographers will love this camera, because they can print and show off their photos up to 13 x 19 inches. This camera has many shooting modes, making it great for all environments and amounts of light available.	A great camera for people who want fast, easy photos that can be enlarged as big as 13 x 19 inches. Rating:
Nikon Coolpix S1000pj Check Price!!	Pros - Built in projector. - Extremely bright, high resolution LCD screen. - Five image stabilizing features. - Smart Portrait System. - Skin Softening. - Wide lense. - After-flash load time is very fast. - Intelligent automated shooting modes with Quick Retouch. Cons - Pictures aren’t always sharp. - Placement of the lens isn’t very good, because you can easily get your finger in the way.	Overall, this sounds like a really nice camera. For this price, I don’t think you really can expect too much as far as consistency. Placement of the lens is inconvenient, but nothing that can’t be worked around.	A great camera for people who want to keep up with the latest technology without breaking the bank. Anyone who wants to share their pictures with large groups of people at once, anywhere. Rating:
Canon PowerShot S95 Check Price!!	Pros - Pocket sized. - Great for low light environment. - Control ring is completely customizable. - Wide-angle 3.8x optical zoom. - Optical Image Stabilizer. - Recoding modes include RAW and JPEG. Cons - Poor battery life. - Cheap design - Small rear control ring moves too easily, easy to hit it on accident.	A nice camera overall. The only problems are minor in my opinion, but would bother someone who maybe takes their camera on the road with them and needs a longer battery life. The price seems a bit steep though for such a cheaply made camera.	A pretty good camera for beginners, but not really for more professional photographers. Rating:
Fujifilm FinePix S1800 Check Price!!	Pros - HD video. - Auto Focus. - Auto Picture Rotation. - Better image search. - Automatic red-eye removal. - Dual Image Stabilization. - Small, lightweight. Cons - Blink and smile detection aren’t always very accurate. - Low quality video mode.	This is a really nice camera. The pictures are wonderful, but some of the features just aren’t cutting it. I think that this is a decent price for a camera that can zoom and capture photos from so far away.	A great camera for a budding photographer. Sure, the smile and blink detection may be a bit inconsistent, but that keeps the fun in photography. Rating:
Nikon D7000 Check Price!!	Pros - Better image quality and speed. - Wider ISO range (100 to 6400) - Full HD 1080p. - Manual exposure. - Active D-Lighting. - Scene Recognition. - Minimal power usage. - Holds two SD cards. - Magnesium alloy body fights against dust and moisture. Cons - No Sync Socket. - No CF cards.	I think this is an amazing camera. Sure, there are things that would be nice if they were included, but I think for the price, you really do get what you’re paying for. This camera is fantastic, the photos are amazing and there’s just not much to complain about.	An amazing camera for anyone who is really serious about their photos. Such a great investment. Rating:
Pentax K-r Check Price!!	Pros - Larger LCD screen. Now 3-inches. - 6 FPS frame rate. Now captures 25 images in sequence. - Fast shutter. - Lightweight. - Images look just like real life. - Rechargeable battery. - Shake reduction. - Custom Image functions. - HDTV movie recording, 25 frames per second (1280 x 720 pixels). Cons Unpredictable thumb wheel control for some.	This sounds like an amazing camera. I think for a camera to cost this much, it really should be flawless and other than some minor complaints, everything seems great to me. This is the kind of camera I dream about having.	Great for a budding photographer who wants some really great pictures and a camera that can accommodate pretty much anything they dream of. Rating:
Nikon Coolpix S80 Check Price!!	Pros - Fantastic Image Quality. - Many new advanced settings including Touch Control. - Display, which allows you to draw on the screen. - Smart Portrait System. - Red-Eye fix. - 17 Scene modes that automatically adjust for your needs (based on lighting etc). - Rechargeable battery. Cons - Difficult to capture high quality photos in artificial lighting -No battery indicator.	There are so many really cool functions that come with this camera, that I can’t even cover them all. This camera is the future in my opinion. Over the years, I have seen technology that changes everything and this is one of those for me. This is a “smart” camera. The touch screen really catches my attention.	The perfect camera for the technical person who loves to stay on top of the latest trends. Rating:
Nikon Coolpix P7000 Check Price!!	Pros -Admirable picture quality with amazing zoom function and skin softening -Automatically selects your best images for you, so you don't have to take pictures more than once -Motion Detection picks up on moving objects and adjusts the speed of the shutter to accommodate -Easy to access controls -Editing functions within the camera itself so you can edit before you get home -Take HD movies on the go -Extremely fast start-up with autofocus, so you never miss a shot Cons -Slower than previous version -Doesn't save very fast -External flash could be better	This camera has a lot of really good features, but the fact that it’s a bit slow may be upsetting to some people. If you need to take multiple pictures at once, and have a short amount of time in-between shots, this may not be the best camera for you. I think this is great for everyday use though.	A camera great for everyday use for family photos, sports, trips etc. Rating:
Canon G12 Check Price!!	Pros -HS SYSTEM reduces blur and shake, leaving pictures sharp and clear. -Beautiful picture quality. -Capture HD videos in 720p. -HDMI output allows you to see your pictures and videos on your computer or TV. -Close-up shooting made better with Hybrid IS. -Large LCD screen gives you a better look of what you're shooting. -Amazing zoom. -Detects when shot needs to be stabilized. -Many optional accessories included so you can personalize your camera. Cons -Freezes for some people while reviewing pictures. -Once you select focus in a video, it cannot be changed.	This camera sounds really nice overall. Some people are having problems with freezing but other than that, things sound pretty nice. I do think the video focus problem is a bit annoying, but I’ve seen worse. Overall, I would probably give this 4 out of 5 stars.	Good camera for all types of people, as long as you don’t mind reading the manual and taking your time to learn a few things. Rating:
Pentax K-x Digital SLR Check Price!!	Pros -High picture quality. -Large LCD screen. -Widescreen HD video (720p). -Compact -Compatible with rechargeable batteries (AA NiMH). -Easy to learn controls. -Holds up to 1900 shots. -Expanded ISO range. Cons -Runs on batteries. -Unreliable in some cases. -Too heavy for some.	This camera really spells things out for the user, so it’s great for anyone who is just beginning their photography journey. It’s also great for those who are more experienced. It is a bit upsetting that this camera runs off batteries, but at least you can use rechargeable batteries.	Anyone who wants to learn DSLR photography. Rating:
Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS7 Check Price!!	Pros -Compact -Zooms up to 23x, so you can capture what most people miss. -HD Movie capable. -Amazing sound quality. -Travel Mode includes GPS for Photos and Movies and playback that lets you search for videos and pictures while you were in a certain place. -Zoom is fantastic. Cons -Battery life isn’t enough for some. -Video and photo quality could be better.	It sounds to me like this camera has a lot of cool features that the manufacturers want to show off, but not the goods to back them up. If you are going to offer 23.4 Optical Zoom, then the picture quality better be pretty darn good or there’s really no point in that amount of zoom. For this price, I would expect more.	A camera for those of us who aren’t as experienced in the photography world. Rating:
Canon PowerShot SD1400IS Check Price!!	Pros -“Smart” camera. -Slim design. -Great zoom and image stabilization. -HD movie shooting and HDMI output. -Smart AUTO selects from 22 settings automatically for better photos. -New Scene Modes for better picture alteration capabilities 400-6400 ISO in Low Light mode. -Smart Shutter helps you detect changes in your photos so you get the best picture every time (ie. If someone blinked, or didn't smile). Cons -No viewfinder. -No optical zoom during video recording. -Class 4 SD card or higher is needed (Not mentioned by company).	I guess this is an alright price for this camera but I would expect a little more from Canon. For this price, you would think that the pictures would be more than just “decent” or “alright”. I find the fact that you can’t zoom during videos a bit strange. I personally feel that’s a must.	A great camera for beginners who are still learning their technique and camera functions. Rating:
Nikon Coolpix P100 Check Price!!	Pros -A zoom that not many cameras can offer. -HD movie capable. -Many stabilization features, helping you get the best shot every time. Cons -Shutter not great for all environments. -Viewfinder could be better. -No RAW image option. -In video mode, focus cannot keep up.	Overall, this camera doesn’t have very many problems at all. I mean, sure it may be annoying when you’re recording a video and the focus has a bit of trouble catching up with the zoom, but overall things are fantastic. Great in so many situations, environments and lighting.	Great for anyone who takes photography very seriously. Great for all environments. Rating:
Nikon D3100 Check Price!!	Pros -3 frames captured every second. -Can capture pictures and videos in almost complete darkness (ISO range is 100 to 3200). -Picture quality is pretty amazing. -Image Stabilization. -Very easy to use. -Compact. -No shutter delay. -Scene Selector (Auto). -Image Sensor Cleaning (Auto). -Image Editing (In-camera). Cons -There have been firmware complaints. -Auto focus messes with the audio within videos.	I realize that this is a camera and not a camcorder, but you would think that since Nikon has the video feature that they would put more work into it. I realize that video isn’t usually a top priority with people who buy cameras, but it’s important to me. I personally wouldn’t buy this for video purposes. I would find something with better sound quality.	Great for the “action photographer”. Rating:
Nikon D700 Check Price!!	Pros -Advanced low light functioning. -Brilliant image quality with EXPEED Image Processing System. -51-point auto focus system. -3D Focus Tracking. -Two Live View modes. -Large LCD screen for easy viewing. -Dust Reduction System. -Fascinating ISO sensitivity. -Fastest speed. -“Intelligent” features. -Very durable. Cons -Complicated for beginners. -A bit pricey.	This camera is amazing. Nikon really showed us how a camera is supposed to be. While most of us cannot afford to spend this kind of money on a camera, I’m sure we would all agree that we would love one.	A good pick for anyone who is really serious about photography and has the money to spend. Rating:
Canon Digital Rebel XSi Check Price!!	Pros -CMOS sensor allows poster-size prints. -3-inch LCD screen for easy playback/viewing. -DIGIC III image processor for fast image processing. -Improved Autofocus/framing rate. -ESO Integrated Cleaning System. -Dust Delete Data Detection. -Expose Controls include: Landscape, Portrait, Close-up, Night, and Sports mode. -Optical viewfinder. Cons -Autofocus doesn’t work as well on farther distances.	This camera does a lot for the price. I’ve seen cameras for $1,500-2,000 that don’t even offer some of these things. However, the autofocus is a major part of a camera and when it’s off, it can really alter your photos. If they can somehow fix the autofocus, all would be dandy.	Someone who isn’t too professional in the photography field, but has some extra money to spend. Rating:
Nikon D90 Check Price!!	Pros -Takes the D300 to a whole new level. -Signal-to-noise ratio is very high. -New D-Movie Mode (HD 720p). -Up to 4.5 frames per second. -Low noise ISO sensitivity. -Image sensor cleaning. -Live View with the touch of one button. -HDMI compatible. -GPS geo-tagging. -Pop-up flash (Built in). Cons -Some feel the body isn’t sturdy enough or “cheap”.	I have done a lot of research on this camera and there isn’t anything that stand out to me about this camera in a negative way. I think this is an amazing price and the pictures this device can take are amazing. What a great bargain, perfect for the holidays!	A wonderful camera for those who take photography seriously and like having many features to mess around with. Rating:
Canon EOS Rebel T1i Check Price!!	Pros -Photos can be blown up bigger than ever. -Live View Function (for pictures as well as videos). -Auto Lighting Optimizer allows best pictures possible. -Compatible with more than 60 Canon EF-EF-s lenses as well as most accessories for the EOS System. -HD video capable. Cons -Some SDHC cards cause problems with video.	This is a pretty amazing camera. The zooming functions are amazing, as well as many of the functions. Overall, this is just a really “smart” camera, and the price just makes it that much better. I don’t think the SDHC card issue is really a problem at all, with any device, you have to check before buying products that may not be compatible.	A nice camera for someone who is pretty serious about their photos, but doesn’t want to break the bank on something too pricey. This camera really is worth the money. Rating:
Canon SX30IS Check Price!!	Pros -Point-and-shoot. -Amazing zoom. Not many other cameras offer this. -Improved Stabilizer. -Many improvements made to Movie modes. -HD 720p video with stereo sound and HDMI output. -New Zoom Framing Assist button. -Advanced Smart AUTO selects settings that fits your needs. -Large LCD screen. -Takes lithium-ion rechargeable batteries. Cons -Picture sharpness isn’t consistent.	I think this camera has some really nice features but none of that matters if the pictures themselves aren’t good enough. There are so many complaints about this camera and the picture quality that I would never want to get one myself. I think the 35x zoom is meant to distract customers from what’s really important; their pictures.	I can’t honestly recommend this camera, because there are way too many complaints about it’s picture quality. Rating:
Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H55 Check Price!!	Pros -Large LCD screen. -Fascinating zoom functioning. -Sweep Panorama mode allows you to capture “the bigger picture”. -HD Movie Mode (720p). -Better image processor -iAuto mode recognizes environments, conditions, faces; automatically adjusting settings for you so you capture the best picture possible. -Intelligent AF can lock focus in .03 seconds. -PHOTOMUSIC combines photos with music to create fun slideshows. -Retouching tools within the camera. Cons -Camera is slow in poorly lit environments or inside.	I have seen many complaints from customers saying they had trouble in low-lit areas or inside their homes, but it seems to be a user error. There are so many more positive reviews, that I have to go with those. This camera has some amazing features and the sample pictures I have seen are fantastic! What an amazing price!	An awesome first camera for anyone who wants a good deal, or for those of you who need a new one. The price is amazing! Rating:
Panasonic Lumix DMC-G1 Check Price!!	Pros -Interchangeable lens that works with anything from Four Thirst Standard. -Full-frame Live View allows you to see exactly what you are shooting; 100%. -3 inch LCD screen flips 180 degrees horizontally and 270 degrees vertically. -Intelligent Auto Mode selects the settings you need for you, when you don’t have the time. -Many creative options to choose from, including; Shake, Motion, Light, Face, Scene, and Subject Detection. -HD Output. Cons -Small sensor. -Low dynamic range.	I can see where this camera would cause professional photographers some grief, but I think it’s fantastic for everyday use. Yes, most people wouldn’t spend this much money on a camera unless they were interested in photography, but I think it has some really amazing features. Panasonic just keeps getting better and better.	A wonderful camera for someone who is on their way to becoming a serious photographer. Rating:
Canon EOS 7D Check Price!!	Pros -Dual DIGIC 4 image processor allows great image quality. -ISO 100-6400 for dim lighting. -Wonderful camera for action shots (8 frames per second). -Movie mode has manual exposure control and three recording sizes. -Intelligent viewfinder. -See 100% of your shot as you take it. -Very durable body that is both dust and water resistent. Cons -Over exposes when in bright light. -Auto white balance isn’t consistent.	I must admit, I am a bit bummed to see how many people think there are things wrong with this camera. With every product out there, there are going to be complaints. I honestly feel from all that I’ve seen and learned about this camera that it is amazing and completely worth every penny.	For the photographer at heart. Rating:
Nikon Coolpix L22 Check Price!!	Pros -Carefree shooting. -Image Stabilization to the max. -16 unique scene modes. -Two movie modes. -19 MB internal memory. Cons -Takes a few seconds to switch from movie mode to picture mode. -Requires batteries. -Shutter takes about 2.5 seconds.	I think this is a fantastic deal. Finding cameras in this price range is tough and many of them aren’t even this good. This camera’s pictures are better than what I would expect from a “cheap” camera and the issues it does have aren’t major at all. You can’t expect a lot out of a camera like this.	A great, cheap, “capturing moments” camera. Rating:
