If you do not care about brand-named stuff, but prefer a handy, well-equipped and cheap alternative, then the DXG-110 is for you. From manufacturer DXG, which I have never heard of, is a nice digital camera that is high in pixel counts, not in price.
Here are the specs:
- Image Sensor: 1/1.76” Panasonic 10.37 Megapixel CCD Sensor
- Active Pixels: 10.0 Megapixel - up to 12 Megapixel
- 3X Optical Zoom / 4X Digital Zoom
- Focus Illuminator
- Face Detection
- PC Interface
- TV Out Format
- White Balance
- EV Compensation
- Self-Timer
- Sensor Sensitivity - Auto or Manual
- Storage Media
- Internal: 32MB Flash Memory
- Shutter - Mechanical and Electronic Shutter
- Auto Power Off
- AutoFocus Tracking
- Supports Direct Print
- External: SD/MMC Card, support high-capacity SD cards up to 4GB
- Power Supply - 2x Alkaline Batteries
While there are no very high-end features and the body is not that of beauty, if you just want good pictures for under $200.00 USD, then the DXG-110 is currently available.
