Before my husband deployed to Iraq last year, we knew he needed a camera to take along on the trip. We didn't want anything too expensive, but needed it to take decent pictures. We were able to do all of our research at home online with our wildblue satellite internet. This made it so much easier.
.
We started out by searching online for the different options. There are so many cameras out there so it was hard to make a decision. We wanted to spend around $100 maybe a little bit more. We looked on various sites and read a lot of reviews.
.
We finally ended up on the Kodak site. They had a lot of options available and also a lot of specials. We found a Kodak 7.0 mega pixels camera. This camera even takes short videos. We were able to get the camera, case, and memory card as a package deal. We ended up spending only about $150 for all of it. This also included having it shipped to our house. We saved a lot of time and money by shopping online. We were able to look at reviews for this exact camera and everyone said good things about it.

While he was deployed, he used this camera a lot. He took pictures of where he was stained, camel spiders, and a lot of himself to show the kids. He was able to just quickly upload these to the computer and email them right to me. This really helped us to stay connected during the deployment. It also gave him lasting memories of his time away from us. We were very happy with this camera and still use it at home.
