Would buying my own digital camera worth it though i won't often use it?

what model is that. why is it so cheap. i hope that i could be that cheap. what is the size of the screen. cause i think the one i chose A470 is 2.5 ". that is nice size of screen. to see the picture well. i don't want a small scree.

is craiglist internation site. cause i thought it is for US only. i think that the products in ebay in our country. the items are not cheap at all. they are just as expensive as brand new ones. or just a little less though they are second hand.

Craiglist has listings for all over the world. I actually just passed a link along to someone for craiglist in Inida.

yeah i have seen my country in it after a while. but i got disappointed, cause people here usually sell their used items just a little less than the original price. unlike in US where they sell their old items or just used items for a while to much lesser price cause i checked it out too. like the items are sold for steal. unlike here people usually will want to get much money back as much as possible. so i may end up buying a brand new. just look it up online, the brand new locally, the lowest price is about $175. quite expensive still. hope to find at least $125. or less

i think that olympus is just fine too. depending on the model. i don't know if there are cheap olympus out there that is easy to use and has great features for its low price.

Olympus store should have.

thanks for the good review. i think i will definitely going to buy this now. i am just saving enough money . it may take another month before i get that amount but i will definitely will. after than i planning to buy ipod touch which take another two months. anyways, i would definitely love to have it soon.

and for battery. does it include rechargeable battery. what batteries are good to use for this camera. is it lithium. i have just read it somewhere. i forgot if it is lithium or the other kind that is good to use for this one.

For best performance use alkaline or lithium batteries. In the long run lithium rechargeable batteries are better because the actual cost would be lower. Get one with a rating of at least 1600mA. If possible get 4 of them because you will always have a spare. Manufacturers sell rechargers with 2 or 4 batteries.

yes i think that rechargeable batteries are much battery. but it is quite expensive too to invest on those rechargeable batteries and also the chargers but it is still a good buy.

yeah having a baby will be a very good reason to buy a digital camera. wish i have good reasons to buy camera too.

yeah i see a lot of people doing that on the malls. taking pictures of exercise machines. every time i go this mall near our place i always find some people taking picture of that exercise machine. i just wonder why are they particularly interested in taking picture of that particular machine. anyways, yes it is really handy to have camera. but i find it hard cause i don't bring any bag with me. and i don't like carrying camera by my hand though it has pouch or own bag for it. i want something i can slid inside my pocket so i won't have to carry it. and so the slimmer kind of cameras are quite too expensive for me though.

i am considering that too instead of buying a camera or digital. but camera phone is quite expensive though compared to canon A470 which is only about $150. but it is not easy to bring anywhere. cause i just wanted to put it inside my purse. so i am planning to buy camera instead. after reading one topic here i want to buy Sony Ericsson C905. seems a good phone. but quite expensive. i think it is more than $200 locally here. may be about $300. so i am still thinking it through. but i don't like though that digital cameras easily get drained of batteries. and cellphone usually last much longer and that is why i still have hesitation.

i think that camera phone is better. but i have to save more money though. as of the moment i can't afford to buy camera phone.
