Can anyone reccommend a good camera that takes high quality sharp pictures for my photography assignments at university? I hear SLR ones are the best ones to get but they're so pricey.
DSLR's are very pricy and you must worry about changing out lenses and dust getting in the camera. I use a superzoom camera. It does not have a changeable lens but has 12x optical zoom. You can get a superzoom for about $250 -$300. If this is just a basic class, that type of camera should be sufficient.
