need help on finding a camera for less than $100

orie

It's been discussed that the nikon 950 is a great camera for coin pics and can be bought for less then a $100 on ebay. Tell me about some more. Just can't put to much cash in a camera right now.

I use a cheeep Fugi Fine Pix 2650 with a micro lens. Works well and less than $50 complete. software is a snap to use.
I have more expensive but this works so very well and is the cheapest camera I own out of 4.

If you can squeak out $50 get a Canon A550, A560, or A570. I think the 570 probably pushes $200 though.

Awesome little pocket cameras. And brand new with a warranty. Might be able to find some refurb ones as well for cheaper.

Thanks for the suggestions and will research the cameras.

Always remember, when you see great coin images ... it's not the coin or the camara that is great, it's what is behind the camara!

I have an Olympus D-545, paid $250 in July 2005. Has a super macro setting, 4 megapixels, I see them under $35 on ebay used...can't vouch for the quality of used stuff but...

and this coin in an "unapproved" slab which ebay considers a raw coin worth $4

I'll give you double the $4 for it and add $4 more for you to ship it. Nice Mercury.
