I,m using a Kodak DX7590 5 meg pix. with a 10X optical zoom.

It's simular to a SLR camera, when you look through the view finder
you are seeing what the lens sees.
Also has a built in flash.

You can get adapters to add filters or lenes to the camera lens.
Zoom is from 38 to 380 mm (Equivalent to a 35 mm SLR flim camera).

The cost $398; Wal Mart might have this camera, also to see more features go to www.Kodak.com
Too many to list here.

I looked at lot of cameras, and for the price I bought this one.

I realy like it, and easy to use.

Hope this helps
