This is a repost here since no one seems to be answering in the other forum and this gets more traffic.  I'm looking to get e decent camera for no more the maybe $150. I just need it to take general pictures. I take pictures of mostly car stuff when I'm restoring something and want to remember how it goes together or when I go to a car show and see something I like and want to remember a vendor or what it was. I don't usually take up close stuff like flowers or the roll mark on my AR. I just want to be able to take some nice photos without breaking the bank.

any canon point and shoot in that price range will suite you just perfect.

Check out this site: Steve's Digi-Cam Reviews

This guy is pretty renowned for his digital camera reviews. I always check his site out before I buy a camera and have been for a few years now. Very in depth with actual testing done by using it instead of GD conjecture.

ETA: Canon usually rates at or near the top for a point and shoot. I have an A510 that I have had for a few years now and it just keeps on ticking and takes stunning pictures.

My mom has a Kodak Easy Share C875 that takes 8 megapixel shots. Its really idiot proof and takes great pictures.

This. I have a Canon A720 IS.    

I use both of those websites when I look for a camera.  Both are great.  

Nice 1969 Dodge Dart GTS.  I had a blue one.  Great cars.

I'd sell you my almost brand new Canon SX110 IS for $150.  9MP, 10X optical zoom, 3" LCD, wicked macro mode, face detection, etc.  It's awesome.











Just selling because I need money.







They go for $230-260 online.
