Just about 12 months ago $100 only got you a low quality, low resolution digital compact camera equipped with poor zooming and focussing capablities plus a super tiny LCD display. Finally, these days are over, the same $100 can buy you a pretty good compact camera now. The best example is the new seven Megapixel digital camera GE A730 by U.S. giant General Electric. Sure, this is not a premium brand camera such as the compact’s from Nikon, Sony, Canon or Kodak that retail easily for $100 to $150 more then GE model. However, the GE A730 delivers a solid mix of high-end options and easy-to-use functions on a budget - and even gives you more Megapixels then more expensive models from Canon or Kodak. Also: The GE gives you the ability to capture MPEG video and features a nice 3x optical zoom lens. Plus, it has a bright, 2.5-inch LCD screen. Another highlight that no other camera can offer in this price range: Electronic image stabilization (competitors such as Nikon call this this Vibration reduction) to prevent blurry shots in low-light shooting situations.
The GE A730 currently retails for $119 at Amazon.com. Prices are expected to fall even more after the summer peaked.
