A few other Canon digital cameras suggestions would be the PowerShot models G9, S5 IS and the SX100 IS. The G9 has 12.1 megapixels with a four times digital zoom and six times optical zoom. This best camera for pretty pictures and this cheapest digital camera prices should help.

As hard as it is to find fault with the Nikon D300, the first thing most people look at when buying anything, is the price. Apologies to Warren Buffett, and Bill Gates (this article is not for you). There are a number of solid contenders in this category, including the Canon EOS 40D, the Pentax K20D, the Olympus E-3, and the Sony Alpha DSLR-A700. At the time of writing, those cameras all sell at a lower price point then the Nikon D300. Anywhere from $200 to $500 less according to Amazon. Which is significant, when you consider what an extra $500 in your lens budget could do for your artwork.

Sometimes when a picture is taken, the eyes reflect lights from the camera, making it appear like blazing red. But because of red-eye removal feature, this can be corrected.

Camera models change quickly these days, and the latest designs will likely have more features for only a few dollars more.

Some cameras have special features like auto-focus illumination which prevents you from taking blurry images due to unsteady hands. Sony Alpha A700 has this feature of image stabilization. Also look for a camera that has auto and manual focus. Most compact digital cameras have this feature. In addition, buyers must choose cameras which have a high optical zoom.

Other than these few issues, the Olympus seems to be a nice camera to have and use. Some problems reported with the Olympus digital cameras come from user error, but even those problems are minimal.

Overall, the better digital camera would be a SLR camera, but that is what a professional or someone serious about photography would use. If you just need a camera for every day picture taking a compact camera will work great.

Canon digital cameras problems are far and in between. Most of the problems found with Canon cameras were found to be user error more so than an error found the camera itself. There are many reviews for all Canon cameras.
