Not bad for an old generation industrial giant. They have taken advantage of the digital age.
Digital camera technology is easier than ever for consumers to use, hence the reason behind the terrific worldwide growth. The cameras come ready to take great images, allow novice users to snap photos quickly and easily, and most of them have made it super easy to share, print or email photos to friends and family. Many cameras feature one button to push in order to share or print an image.
You can spend from $100 all the up to $3200+ for a top of the line digital SLR camera. Some of the best current models on the market include the new Canon E5D SLR at the high end of the cost scale at around $3200, the ultra slim Sony Cyber Shot DSC-T5 which is compact and makes a fashion statement to boot, the super easy to use and share images Kodak Easy Share One, and for great price to quality you can't beat the Fuji FinePix F10 at around $350.
