Best Point & Shoot Camera For Less Than $150

I need to buy one. Tired of lugging around the DSLR.

Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Quick/accurate auto-focus is a factor. Zoom not so much.

Thanks in advance.

I'm a fan of canon cameras in general.

 

Ditto.

I have last year's version of this and I love it.

FYI, this same camera is $179 at amazon without the memory card.

 

That is AWESOME...Thanks!

Gonna go get me one.

 

Right on! I think you'll really like it.

 

Just purchased it! I came "that" close to buying this one....

.....but I think I'll love the SD940 much more. Love the video aspects!

 

Black Friday is in 6 days.

I'd have waited.

 

I hear ya. Part of it is, though, I kind of wanted it for our Thanksgiving gathering.

(not to mention, I HATE holiday shopping crowds.. Yeah, I know, more and more companies are offering Black Friday on-line.)

 

Yeah, that Kodak Z950 looks like a killer deal.

I'm still happy with my purchase, though

 

Got a Fuji from Costco. It can go under water, shoot videos in HD, and takes mega clear photos. I think it was under 165.

 

I'm getting the Canon S95 today. The best point and shoot pocket camera that's out right now... but it's expensive.
You can find used Canon S90's on Craigslist for around $225... of course you can always offer less. The S90 is a great camera. (there is an old thread about it).

I'm saving for the camera I want. The holy grail of SLR cameras: Leica m8 ($6,000)
