Top 3 Best and Cheapest Digital Cameras For 2010
By Jorge Duvais

Here is a new year in swing again and as usual people are already searching for the best quality yet the cheapest digital cameras that they can get. Buying cheap stuff is trendy these days with the economy as bad as it hasn't been in a long time, so people are careful in what they spend their hard earned money on. Yet at the same time they want to enjoy the good qualities that the newest products have to offer them. To help you make the best purchasing decision, here are the best digital cameras that are at the same time cheapest reviewed for your convenience.

First of all most gadgets today have rechargeable batteries, have no eyepiece viewfinder and they get a standard 12 or 14 megapixels. Gone are the times when 6 megapixels were considered a big improvement. Also most of them nowadays are really attractive pieces that are small, compact and are loaded with lots of features including face recognition, 3" screens and high definition video captures. And best of all, you can get all of these at $300 or less.

Canon Powershot SD980, at only $280 retail price is a top runner in 2010. It is very sleek and has an interesting squished-capsule form and shape. This is Canon's first camera with a touch-screen. Some of it's additional features and benefits: you can tap your finger to flip through the various photos. You can also focus them off-center and magnify them. If you tilt it in a particular position, you will activate various interesting functions. It has a good picture quality, a wide angle lens and comes with a really small shutter lag or start up time. Truly a masterpiece, Canon has definitely outdone itself with this one.

Fujifilm Finepix F70 EXR costs even less than the Canon at only $197 retail price. You can find it in various places for less. It has a really nice clear and much more colorful low-light photo, has a fast zoom which is a bit noisy. One disadvantage is the lack of high definition shooting and it takes a bit of time to really get the hang of it. But for the price...

Zoom Ex H10 from Casio at $262 is closer in price range to Canon but it also has some incredibly nice features. It has a wide angle lens, a 10x zoom and a battery that lasts quite long. You can shoot around 1,000 shots before the battery needs recharging, which is much more than any other camera on the market today. You can go crazy with playing with 38 preset special effects. This one, however, doesn't have hi-def either and doesn't have optical zoom during filming.

My personal preference is Canon, it always has been ever since I bought my first Canon G5 years ago with 5 Megapixels. I did try others as well, but in the end I always went back to my trusted brand.

Here you have them, the top 3 best and cheapest digital cameras for 2010. All three take great photos, have tons of features that just a few years ago were the stories of science fiction and are lightweight, compact and really fun to use.

One of the rages this year is buying waterproof digital cameras. To learn more about the best cheap digital camera, visit my site.
