Another new camera?!?

Some of you might remember a post in the fall about us getting a new camera. It has been been a pretty good camera, and I take it in my purse everywhere I go. We got Bailey a "Water table" to play with outside, and now you may see where this story is going. Bailey somehow snuck the camera from my purse and the next thing I know she is dunking it into the water...over and over until I grabbed it from her. She thought it was pretty funny. Well, after drying for a few days, there is still moisture in the lens and the screen is all blurry and flicks on and off. So now we are in the camera buying stage again. We liked the Sony that we had, but we paid more than we are going to spend this time. So if any of you have cameras that you really like (that takes good pictures of moving children) please let us know...or if you have had some that you really don't like...

I recommend buying at Costco, first of all, no matter what you buy.

Second, what's your budget for one?
We have a Nikon D50 and looovvveee it to pieces! Gets great pics of moving subject, lol!

We want to spend less than $200. The last one was about $350 and it only lasted 6 months with Bailey's help. We will definitely check Costco and see what deals they have.

We have always gone for the SONY Cameras, they work very well as long as you know how to navigate through all the options and stuff... we are looking for a new camera too... keep us up on your progress! We are going to costco to research too@ !

happy mother's day! melissa you might want to check out canon...i believe they are the company that if it breaks or anything you can send it away to their "hospital" and just pay a deductible for the first year! And then i think you can extend it after that. if it is destroyed...i think they replace it!
