Totally sick of my Nikon 110.
Total POS!

Any suggestions for brands to look for for around $100?
Just looking for somthing good for product shots.
Up close, good color.

SD card with good battery life?

Is there such a camera?

    Were happy with this, pretty simple easy to use paid $85 on sale at BB, much nicer than our Kodak Easy Share. You should buy Rick88's off him that looked like a sweet deal and Rick takes care of his stuff.

    I like my Olympus VG-130. 5x zoom,14mp, 2 macros settings, HD movie, sd cards. I like the upload software that came with it, and the battery's been great after a year or so. Big screen, but no view finder (think that's gone on a lot of these pocket cameras now). Should be around your price range...

    Nice price on that one!:cheesygrin:

    I actually have another Olympus, but it has the huge memory card (Not sure what it is called, they have not made them in years), and if I want to hook it up to my computer I have to download the software and a mini-usb cord.
    I like just taking the SD card out and plugging into the computer.

    I appreciate the help, and the Olympus I must say takes some of the better pictures I have seen.
    The camera I have is so old the software will not run on my computer.:twisted:

    Something to check into for SURE!

    Thanks man!
    Just the info I was looking for!
