Hey! Iâm a kid too! If kids like us, we MUST get a camera with image stabilization. Very few cameras with a cheap price has image stabilization. And I really advice you to go for Canon A570 IS.
It has the advanced Canon Optical Image Stabilization and has one of the best processors in the world, Digic III (3). It has a 2.5â screen and a proper viewfinder. It also can put in extra lens and a slave flash. Its f-stop is also considered good around its class (f/2.8).
This allows more light to go in to the lens in low light conditions. This is called aperture. It also has shutter and aperture priority.
Its Specs :
7.1 MP
O.I.S
SD Memory Card
AA Batteries
4x Optical Zoom
And so onâ¦.

Digital camera/photography question?
amy
I want to start teaching myself photography because i cant afford to take a class in it. My question is, what is a really good digital camera for that....good quality but i am a college kid on her own so i'd like to keep the price low. Also, what do people use to edit photos for example make some things color in a black and white picture? Is it just photoshop?

For camera's......... the Fuji range of Digital Compacts do a pretty good job, but of course you can't change the lenses or stick filters on them.

The next step up would be the Super-Zoom / Ultra-Zoom offered by Fuji + Olympus..... which are a sort of half way between a Digital Compact + a Digital SLR (like used for serious photography, but not as costly)........ I believe you can get a few accessories like filters for them, but can't use different lens on them.... which is kinda a good thing because I've heard that Digital SLR's can get a build-up of dust + other crap where the camera & lens connect to each other, and eventually need sending away for servicing as a result.
Here's the reviews for them:
