On Monday after doing an exam I headed downtown to Fnac to buy a new camera. I really needed a camera because I’ve been without one since before Christmas, and I want to document my summer in Germany and post pictures in this blog.

I was looking for a camera within a price range between 150 and 250 €. Small and compact, preferably a Nikon or a Canon. After looking at all the cameras they had on display I decided to buy a Nikon Coolpix S200.
Nikon

Its basic features are:

- 7.1 Megapixels.

- 3X optical zoom.

- Electronic vibration reduction.

- In-camera Red Eye fix (supposedly I will never see a red eye in my pictures).

- Video recording with sound at 30 fps (640 x 480 pixels).

-Rechargeable Li-ion Battery (no batteries!) that will last approx. 230 shots.

-Light, small and with a big screen.

It cost me 199€, probably I could have gotten it cheaper somewhere but I didn’t want to lose time. I’m quite happy with my purchase, I hope it will last long and doesn’t give me any problems like I had with past cameras.
