Hey guys and gals. I was thinking and i want a digital camera. All i want is something to take pictures of my bike, and me at the track thats all. I want something in the $200-$300 range. Im not to sure about all of the megapixels and all of that? If anyone could explain what i should get, just so i can take quality photos, it would be great. Thanks
Marc

I have been using digital cameras for work since 1996. The Kodaks get my vote for ease of use, quality and durability. I have a Kodak dc 210 zoom with over 12000 photos taken on it. Never had a problem. I recently purchased a Kodak dc3215 for about $200 and have been using it for 6 months. Nothing fancy but it sounds like it would work for you.

Kodak DC3400 - I think it's $200.

It's 2.0 megapixels (good for printing 5x7 and 8x10's) and I have been really happy with mine. Takes really great photos for the value!

Check out these race photos HERE!

These are all cropped and severely resized smaller. The full sized photos look great!
