Digital cameras have always been the favorite for most gadgetophilics and more importantly even for them who care less about the word gadget.

2. Nikon Coolpix S610c

I own it and since then it has been a personal favorite of mine. Nikon Coolpix has always gifted us with good digital cameras. And this is no exception. The 10-megapixel Coolpix S610c takes amazing shots and features built-in Wi-Fi, which lets you jump onto any wireless network to send pics via e-mail—but at a 2-megapixel resolution. Again, it improves upon the noise level which is a problem with all the digital cameras under this range. It has a 4X optical zoom and a large 3 inch LCD Display.

It is very strong too and excepting a little problem with the focussing option of the lens, Exlim can be yours provided all the criteria for buying a good digital camera holds true.

5. Canon PowerShot SD1100 IS

Yes we are again favoring Canon. I intended to save a space for Sony Cybershot but in reality its too pricey. On the other hand Canon Powershot looks great and is comfortable to use. Its robust features–which include the company’s fast DIGIC III processor, a maximum aperture of f2.8, and outstanding image quality–allow it to compete with cameras that cost significantly more. Its a 8MP camera with 3X optical zoom.
