Cheap Thrills: Good Electronics for Less

By Rebecca Day

Need a camcorder, laptop, or digital camera? You'll be amazed how little you can spend and still get great quality. We asked Rebecca Day, a consumer technology expert and contributing writer to the magazine Electronic House, to look at MP3 players, computer printers, and other home-tech devices and to recommend the best of each for women on a budget. You'll see you really can get a lot of bang for your buck.

Digital Camera

Fujifilm FinePix J10 ($120)

Digital cameras keep dropping in price and gaining in quality, which means you can get a topnotch camera on a tight budget. A smart bargain is Fuji's 8.2-megapixel J10 (we saw it at www.buy.com for $106). With 3x optical zoom, it provides all the resolution you need for enlargements, a zoom lens, and a generous 38mm-133mm wide-angle lens. The 3/4-inch-thin camera fits easily into your purse.
