I need a recommedation on which camera I should buy?

Question

I'm looking for a cheap camera no more then 50$ the less the better that can be hooked onto my computer to upload pictures so I be able to sell on ebay. So I would probably need to buy one of those memory readers also.

Answer 1

For less than $50, the best thing you can probably get is a pretty decent webcam. There are some terrible cameras available but even these aren't cheap.

You can find good deals on decent second hand cameras on eBay or Craigslist.

Answer 2

You may want to run your numbers again.  

If you are photographing products, you will need to spend at least $50 for the lights and background ... even if you just use construction lamps from Home Depot.  The camera and a so-so tripod will in combination be around $150 and up.

Remember, presentation is key to successful sales.  You need good lighting, good composition and a quality sensor.

Answer 3

Go to Walgreen's or CVS pharmacy. They're got cheapies like that on the rack.

Answer 4

I went to Wal-mart about 3 months ago and they have a digital camera/web camera that runs about $20  its a decent little camera as long as you have good lighting and its very reasonable price wise and should be good for what your needing.
