Affordable Digital Cameras
It is true that in some cases, the more you spend, the better the quality of the appliance you will get. That said, not everyone can afford to spend a lot of money on digital cameras. If you want to buy your camera as a gift for young children or for older parents who just want something that is easy to use, there is nothing wrong with looking for the best cameras under $100.
There is something important to bear in mind when you are spending so little on your camera. The memory will be very limited and the camera lens will likely be average. That said, for most people, the most important thing is just being able to take pictures.
Popular manufacturers of digital cameras also offer entry-level products for less than $100. Here are a few to consider:

- I use canon a1200 and it's got all the features I need.. I've wanted a camera with HD, has a viewfinder, has a lot of scene modes, good megapixels, and runs in AA batteries.. you'll find it hard to find another like that
