Hi,

Having acquired and installed a USB card in my 7500 I would like to get a nice cheap digital camera (�40-50) I have a quicktake 150 which to be honest isn't up to the job, the quality is good but too big and too few pictures. Has anyone else ound a suitable repacement, preferably on the high street. I'd like to just walk in and buy one. I gather that most pc cameras should work, apparently the ones with memory cards act as a removable hard drive when connected to the usb socket, is thios true?
Yes. Definitely get one of those readers. I got one for my stem (US $45) that reads all the different kinds of cards out there (compact flash, smart media, sony sticks, etc) very nice...just plug-n-go.

There are a pile of low-end digicams out there. things worth paying for: real zoom lenses, not digital zoom. Cameras that have real optical viewfinders are much more convenient and far less battery hungry than ones that only have lcd panels.

Get a camer that takes regular AA batts instead of some proprietary battery pack: you can choose from a number of rechargable AA batteries and in a pinch, you can nip into a store and pick up regular ones.
