  1. Remember you get what you pay for.  There are some budget cameras out there just look for something that has what you need.  As long as you got a USB cable you can download your pics to your PC, if you not you may need a memory card reader.  Most cameras come with some internal memory so you can take a few pics, but you will need a decent sized memory card to if you intend to take alot of pics.  256MB, 512MB, are decent 1GB is great.  Look on amazon.com or yahoo shopping for accessory bundles that might save you some cash.  You might want to get a tripod for you cam too. Good luck.


  2. This is a hard question because most of the Cam's out there are a bit more than 80$ you will need to save up atleast 150$ to get a good quality cam

    and to answer the next question

    That is a bit hard also you will need to read the box usually you will need 2 things a memory card and a usb cable if they arent included if you use a memory card then that is all you will need if you have a newer computer than its as easy as putting the card in the card reader Than it will ask you where you want the pic's saved to and then you make a folder so you know where to find your pics

    Hope this helps

  3. you want to get a larger memory card and a bag for the camera. it will come with everything to hook up to the computer. under 80 dollars is pushing it, you might want to try a refurbished camera...

  4. but the pics on a frame like this one

  5. HI Kay,

    This is going to be a  disappointment to you,  but you are not going to be able to get a quality digital camera, much less any accessories for $80.   Just the memory card alone costs almost that much.    I don't know what to tell you... as almost any nice name brand camera will cost at least $140.00.   But if you can push it to afford $140.  the camera will come with all of the things you need; the battery and battery charger,  the cables to connect to the computer,  the instruction book, and maybe a memory card... some of them come with one small card.   Name brands that you can find for that price will be Sony, Kodak, Fugi...   be sure to get a name brand and not something you have never heard of before, just because it is cheap because you will be throwing your good money away.

    Hope I was able to give you somethings to think about.  I hope you will find something in your price range.  :))
