Okay I want a digital camera and I was wondering if ya'll could give me some suggestions. Here are my specifications.

-5.0 MP or higher
-I only have 300 some dollars so... cheap
-Thin, so I can carry it around easily

Actually if it's rediculous to think that I can get a thin cheap digital camera for under 300 dollars..... I'll probably take any MP. Just like, not terribly crappy.

Danke schon :)

That's a cool camera... but maybe a little less expensive? The 300 dollars is all the money I have...

Keep in mind that quality does NOT come cheap. Most 5.0 MP cameras that are god quality and look nice aren't cheap, but you can get them with $300. You can even get the Canon ELPH with 5.0 MP for $299.99 now (or maybe less). It's pretty nice.

Plus, you can clearly view the images on a 2.5" screen. Cheapers ones have 2" screens.

My philosophy is that if you're going to spend a lot of money on a camera, such as spending $250 on a decent one, shouldn't you go spend that extra $50 to get a REALLY REALLY GOOD one? You have to think about this, in the long run.Oh yea, and it would definitely help if you went to Best Buy, Fry's Electronics, CompUSA, or something like that and have a look at the cameras yourself. Then you'll know what I mean.
