Hello everyone,
Well I just got my old camera back from the shop and they said it's broken beyond repairing. My budget for a new camera is around $215. I am not from America so prices might differ slightly. I mainly use my camera for taking shots of live bands and just general use. I never print them out, just keep them digitally on the computer. To give you an idea of how much things cost here I've included a few models and their pricing:
Canon Powershot A430 - $190
HP Photosmart M22 Digital Camera - $169
Samsung Digimax S500 - $172
Kodak Digicam C503 - $164
Olympus FE-170 - $214
These are merely just examples to give you an idea of how much we pay for camera's here.
