Cheap Digital Camera

Stompa

An elderly relative has asked me to look for a digital camera which she wants to give to someone as a Christmas present. The absolute maximum budget (inc delivery etc.) is £60.

Any suggestions?

The best I can come up with is a Fuji A400 from Boots at £69.99, which you can get down to £62.99 using a discount code.

Thanks

Thanks, but I'm confused. Was there supposed to be a link in there somewhere???

I'm nothing to do with this outfit, but a couple of years ago, for work I bought a 10mp "grey copy" of a practika "compact SLR" which did quite well, for a good price, from the bloke behind this store.

Surpassed now by a pro SLR but still have his megxon 5mp for quick "snap" jobs

Some of his cameras look remarkably completely identical to the aldi one, just a different logo printed on them.

Helpful when it seemed to have developed a fault too...

OK, thanks I'll take a look. Incidentally, the Aldi ones are normally rebadged Vivitars

I have one that is totally brand new and in original packaging. I bought it for £20 and would sell it to you for the same price + £3 P&P.

It's a Concord 2040 with:

• 2.0 Megapixels
• 4x Digital zoom
• LCD Display
• Takes photos and video clips
• 7mb internal memory
• Takes SD/MMC cards (not supplied)
• TV Cable
• USB Cable
• Batteries
• User guides
• CD
• Camera Case
• Wrist Strap

Would make an excellent first camera. PM me if interested:D

Thanks, but in the end I went for the Fuji from Boots - less than £50 by the time various vouchers etc were taken into consideration.

Pleased to hear you've got one sorted.:D

I should really put it on eBay but haven't gotten round to it. Too busy looking on MSE :rotfl:
