What is a good point and shoot type camera for around $200?

Question by legin: What is a good point and shoot type camera for around 0?
I'm look to buy a camera for my best friend's birthday and a camera was one of the things she is looking for so I was wondering what a good point and shoot camera was.

Requirements:
NOT pink
Fairly large screen
Not too bulky

Also, for those of you who don't know what "point and shoot" means, it means that all you do is point the camera at your subject and shoot the picture, no real manual adjustments like the professional cameras.

  1. I would suggest Canon PowerShot SD890IS 10MP with 5x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom
    Face Detection; Motion Detection Technology automatically reduces blur
    2.5-inch PureColor LCD II screen for bright, accurate color and wide viewing angle

  2. canon sd1100


    All of the major brands are good. Choose a brand that appeals to you. Then you have to think about getting a spare battery, what size memory card, if you want an extended warranty, how much you can afford, what size zoom, if you want manual controls, the size of the camera, finding a reliable place to purchase it, and the list goes on and on and on.......

    The first thing to realize is that almost any digital camera will take good pictures. If more people would read the manual more than once, they would be able to take better pictures. Usually, the person assumes it is the camera when it could be them not knowing exactly what to do. Just give yourself more photographic knowledge by doing more reading on the internet.

    I really believe buying a camera is an individual choice.
    The person needs to read alot of reviews on cameras so they can decide on the features that they really want and need.
    Go to the store and hold them so you can see if they feel comfortable in your hands. If possible, take some pictures in the store to check the quality of the pictures.
    I can only give a suggestion of what to look for in a new digital camera.
    Good Luck
