I wanna.... Good Digital Camera

bigmomma051204

I wanna buy my partner a digital camera for his birthday but things are a bit tight so only have about £50 to spend. Is it possible to get a good, basic digital camera for that kind of money?? I have no clue about them hence am asking lol

Haven't looked very recently but I was amazed before Xmas at the great prices to be had on digital compacts that would have been £200 - £300 a couple of years back (and not too far behind the 'cutting edge' models either). I should think you could pick up a fairly reasonable one for that price. Try Amazon or 7dayshop to get the feel of what's out there; dpreview(just google it) will help with reviews, even of older models. Hope you find what you need!

This one is £58 but i got mine at Max Speilmen, I think it was on offer a few weeks backs if I remember rightly for under £50.
Photo quality is great, easy to use too!

It all depends on your definition of 'good' .. I've got a £120 Panasonic camera that i think is 'ok', but if I want 'good' I use my £400 SLR

For £50 you can get a 'basic' camera. Even 10 years ago I wouldn't have said you would get a good camera for that money.
