[200q20v] RE: [s-cars] Digital Camera Recommendations - for documenting aut o repairs?

[Charles Baer]

Peter,

After seeing the earlier DC talk, I came across an HP 315 at CNET
that is 1600x1200x30 for <$170.  Raw resolution is never the end
all characteristic, but it's a good start.

No optical zoom, not a lot of bells and whistles but it looks like
good resolution/price.  I didn't spend any time investigating more,
but if the specs are not created by a gimmick (very un-HP) it should
be a weener.

Charlie
