Whether you want a simple point-and-shoot camera for family photos or you're a serious photographer who wants greater creative control, there's a digital camera that's right for you. We've rounded up 10 of the most popular and feature-packed models out there. Canon PowerShot A610: If you don't really need 7.1 mega pixels, you can save money with the Canon PowerShot A610, which has the same features as the A620 but only 5 mega pixels. That's still plenty for most people to zoom, crop and print richly detailed photos as large as 8 by 10 inches. Like the A620, the A610 offers 4X optical zoom, a 2-inch LCD and a number of shooting modes to make picture-taking simple, even if you're a novice. Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-P200: Small camera; big LCD. The compact Sony DSC-P200 is only 4 inches wide, 2 inches high and 1 inch deep but has a high-resolution 2-inch LCD so you can instantly enjoy viewing and sharing photos. It also has a robust 7.2-megapixel CCD and a quick auto-focus, 3X optical zoom lens to help bring your subject closer. Pre-flash metering sets exposure and reduces red-eye for great flash shots. You can also shoot in movie mode, recording as much as your selected Memory Stick can hold. Kodak EasyShare Z740: If you want to shoot close-up subjects and still enjoy the simplicity of a point-and-shoot camera, consider the Kodak EasyShare Z740, which gives you a powerful 10X optical zoom. If that's not enough, there's also 5X digital zoom for a total of 50X zoom capability. The exclusive Kodak Color Science Chip gives your pictures vibrant color even under difficult lighting conditions. Choose one of 16 shooting modes to get your perfect shot, whether it's a beach scene or a self-portrait. Fuji FinePix S5200: Toeing the line between point-and-shoot and digital SLR is the Fuji FinePix S5200. It's larger and heavier than the average pocket-friendly point-and-shoot, but just the right size if you like to use a long lens and have more control than the typical weekend snapshooter. Its 10X optical zoom and 5.7X digital zoom give you a total of 57X total zoom range. Intuitive controls on the body allow you to set up shots quickly without navigating through menus. If you feel confident in your shutterbug skills and you want a faster-shooting camera that's compatible with a variety of lenses, you'll want a digital SLR.
