The Best Cheap Camera for Vacation

The Kodak EasyShare software feature allows you to upload and share your favorite pictures and videos using the Share button. You can also edit and crop your photos right on the camera! Other than the Smart Capture setting (for general picture taking), it has 6 other settings: Program (access to all settings), Blur reductions (reduces blur when subject is moving), video (captures motion and sound), Close Up (closer than 28 inches), Sport (fast action photos), portrait (full frame photos of people and subjects).

Some people may not like that it uses 2 AA batteries, but I already had a charger and rechargable AA batteries, so that hasn't been a problem. Just make sure you keep extra batteries with you, because the videos take up a lot of battery power. You might prefer the Kodak EasyShare M341 Digital Camera, which uses a Lithium-Ion battery and will last much longer than alkaline batteries. You'll have to remember to take your charger with you. Just like a cell phone, these batteries can be recharged many times.

You will need a Sandisk 4GB Memory Card for your camera. The camera alone will not store many photos. With a memory card, you can store all of your vacation photos on the card and when you get home, download them into your computer. And, don't forget a Camera Case to protect your camera.
