Digital cameras are something I think everyone should have. They make it so easy to take photos and save them on your computer. There is so much you can do with digital photos that there is no reason to not have a digital camera, especially since they are so affordable now. Today I will be taking a look at the Kodak EasyShare V1253 digital camera, which is a 12-megapixel camera, it has a 3.1-inch LCD, 3X optical zoom lens, and can record HD video. Can you believe all of that is only $149.99 from Geeks.com, which is a great place to find cheap digital cameras.
