What's the Cheapest Digital Camera and DSLR Camera?
You can find the cheapest digital cameras for under $10, but if you're looking for a current model that's available from major retailers and comes new, not refurbished, you'll have to spend a little more. Vivitar is one of the biggest names in cheap digital cameras and camcorders and its products are usually available at national retailers such as Target, Walmart, and Staples. One of the cheapest digital cameras released in the last 18 months is the Vivitar Vx018 10.1MP Digital Camera, with an MSRP of $69.99; it sells for $49.99 at Amazon. This camera's features include a 10.1 megapixel CMOS image sensor, a 1.8-inch LCD flip screen, and 4X digital zoom.
How about DSLR cameras? Among the cheapest digital cameras in this category that are relatively current and carried by major retailers is the Sony Alpha 14.2MP Digital SLR Interchangeable Lens Camera with 18-55mm lens, for a list price of $599.99 at Target. The same model is available at Amazon, for $479. The features on this DSLR include 14.2 megapixels, 3D panorama shooting, optical image stabilization, and 18X zoom.
