What is a good point and shoot digital camera under $150?

Question by Jack: What is a good point and shoot digital camera under 0?
I'm looking for a good point and shoot camera. Any suggestions? The only must is that it must have a rechargeable battery. I can't believe that there are cameras that still use AA or AAA batteries.

Thanks for your input!

I have a canon powershot, not the ones on the commercials. It has a 10x optical zoom and 4x digital and I love it. It still takes AA batteries, but I bought the rechargeable ones. I don't think it was under $ 150, but I did get it on sale for I believe $ 200 or so, but under $ 250. I suggest going on walmart.com or bestbuy.com or wherever they sell cameras and just look and read all the reviews and everything. Good luck.

I was going to get the NikonD3100 but I have to buy lenses, and I can't afford them.
So now I'm going to look at a top end point and shoot camera that:
Takes good night pictures, has a pretty decent zoom.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Any of the bridge cameras should do you (such as the Canon Powershot SX40HS. Make sure the camera has the manual modes, too, to give you better control.

The most important part will be learning how to use your camera, to turn the ISO down and most of all, for night photography, to use a tripod plus either the timer function or an external shutter release.
