DD (12) needs a new camera. Needs to be cheepish, sturdy and preferably with a rechargable lithium battery.

Would you mind sharing your pros and cons camerawise? also has anyone seen any good deals around?

you can get rechargable ordinary batteries (AA/AAA i mean) if that is going to make a difference for you

What is your budget?

any pref for pixels and all that?

NigellaTheOriginal · 03/07/2008 10:33

rechargable batteries and charger are a bit bulky.
budget as low as poss.
pixels as many as poss.
and simpe would be good.

not picky am i?

Theres this Sanyo one in Argos half price for £59.99.

Most cheapo cameras are not rechargable though.

Fuji one here.

BexieID · 03/07/2008 11:00

Bundle - looks ok yeah. I love Canon! Just can't find a rechargable one under £100 for Nigella though!

They both look ok, although the Fuji takes 4 AA batteries! There was a really nice Kodak one, will have a look later as i'm off out now!
