Hey everyone, I am looking for a digital camera for my mother. It HAS to be from best buy. Why BB? Well she won a gift card from work for $150 and she wants a digital camera badly. I want the clearest, most sufficient and outstanding camera I can buy for $150 shipped.

LMK what you guys suggest and I need this >1 week.

Oh, and I need it to record video WITH SOUND!!

Canon if u can find it in your price range, but my girl got her Kodak from BB for $120 bnib and its awesome. Pretty good videos w/ sound, awesome pictures(10+ mp), pretty small and thin, and a good amount of options. Only downside is that it doesn't come with a memory card, but u can get those for cheap(like $10-20 depending on size).

anything but a Kodak, they take the worst pictures of any camera i have seen

since Canon was mentioned i will mention Fuji. I have taken some amazing pictures with my Fuji V10

I like my Panasonic FS3 point and shoot.

Paid 180 I believe, but is cheaper now last time I looked and it is 8mp, but takes nice picuters, just wish it would zoom in more, but I have my sony for that.

Cannons are good too....

good call with the fuji, canons are a bit easier to take good pics, especially in low light, but the fuji will take some excellent pictures if you use it right
