Argus DC-2300 Photo Phazer
You probably don't want your kids playing with your $800 digital camera. Well, the Photo Phazer looks cool, it's easy to use, and the price is painless. Take digital stills or shoot 60 seconds of video. Still resolution is just 640-by-480, but that's fine for display on a PC screen or Web site.

Argus DC3810
Argus, a venerable American company that has been manufacturing photographic products for over 60 years, has been a minor player in the digital camera market. The company takes a good stab at changing that with the Argus DC3810 ($499 list), which is far and away the least expensive, full-featured 5-megapixel digital camera anywhere. The DC3810 is remarkably easy to operate and comes at an unbeatable price. It will appeal to those who want plenty of value for their money, but slow performance, not-quite-excellent image quality, minor annoyances, and shoddy construction will disappoint more demanding users. This handsome, full-sized, silver-and-dark gray plastic camera is best held and used in both hands. It has only a handful of controls: Display, Menu, and Enter buttons, a four-way jog button, a Select dial and a sliding Power switch. On the jog button, the right and left arrows double as the zoom lever, and the up and down arrows are for flash, audio record, and focus. The controls are conveniently placed.
