Kyocera FineCam
While Kyocera doesn't offer many cameras, the cameras they do produce are decent for low-end digital cameras. However, they are faced with some tough competition. See the Digital Camera Buying Guide if you would like to learn more about how to choose a new camera. Note that the prices listed are estimates and are not always the lowest street price available.

- Very cool camera with a unique design.
- The SL400R
(pictured) was the previous model in this series, running from $200 and up.
- It is a fast compact digital with a good burst mode for taking continuous shots, but the image quality produced by its 3 megapixel resolution is average.
- The 2.5" LCD screen however, is definitely worth noting.
- It has a good range for shooting anything from portraits to sports. It even has a selection of scene modes, including recording video.
- The only drawback to this camera is that it only has a 3x digital zoom, meaning that there is no possibility for making decent enlargements of your photos.

- If you are looking for something with a little bit more power and versatility, this camera should prove to be good value for the money.
- With a 4MP resolution, electronic viewfinder, and 10x optical zoom lens -- you can't go wrong.
- Its range is excellent for a digital camera of this caliber.
- Plus it was designed with a decent grip.
- Ability to change lenses, record in video mode, and record sound with its built-in microphone.
- It also has a pop-up flash with various flash modes.
- Expandible and versatile memory card slots, and settings for adjusting color, white balance, and shooting modes.
- Two problems: small (1.5" LCD screen) and the fact that it uses 4 AA batteries.
