I want to get him a digital camera for xmas but since im a college student, i can't afford the best thing on the market. Something under $230...(with a mail in rebate possibly)...high megapixels (well the highest i can get for that amount of money), something that'll last him long, has good optical zoom, possibly a charger (and not have to change batteries), a name brand that is known for good cameras, and something that can hold a lot of pics at once. Any ideas?
Try Costco.. I just bought a new one.. with all of the things you listed.. 5 MPs.. It was Panasonic.. $300 with a $30 mail in rebate. Not sure if you'll find one much better for cheaper though.
You should be able to get a good one for under $200 easy... but you need someone's help who really knows that kinda stuff, that's how i did it & i love my camera! Good luck!

Not sure if you shop on blackfriday, but there are some good sales on digital cameras that day. Here is a website with the ads. www.bf2005.com
