I use the term Zoom Camera simply because this article is based on personal experience when buying a Canon SX110 IS, which is a compact digital camera with a 10x zoom lens. There are a number of compact digital zoom cameras with 10x up to 20x optical zoom lenses which fall into this category. However, I'm sure my experience can be applied accross the full range of digital cameras from the bottom end 'point and shoot' to the top end professional digital SLR's.
Having decided which camera I wanted, my next task was to obtain the best possible deal and thus the purpose of this article, because what looks like a good deal is often not the best deal.
The best place to start is online which shows up quite a wide range of prices. All the major high street retailers have a website and in most cases they offer a better deal if you buy online than you can get by visiting their shop. There are a number of price comparison sites which make this task a lot easier. However, you need to look beyond the price displayed or ticket price.
Quite often, as in my case, you are not just buying a camera. Look carefully at the 'what's in the box' information. For example, my camera came with only a 32MB SD memory card (only enough for around 6 images), a couple of alkaline batteries and no carrying case. So I decided that I needed a 4GB SD memory card, four rechargeable nickel cadmium batteries (two as spares), a battery recharger and a carrying case. Even if the box contains everything you need right now, it is a good idea to consider what you might need later because bought seperately, these items can add significantly to the overall cost. By bundling these items in with the camera at the time of purchase is the best way to get a good deal.
So don't just look at the ticket price of the camera. Decide what you need to go with it before you start comparing prices. Some online retailers offer huge savings on bundled items. In my case for example, the 'extras' I needed would have cost a total of £87.50 if purchased seperately, yet by bundling them in with the camera I was able to save £34. Even though the ticket price for my camera was higher with this online retailer compared with others their overall bundled price gave me the best deal.
Richard Taylor is a keen digital photographer and having spent much time researching the best zoom camera for his own use, decided he would share that by creating a website featuring the top cameras in this category.

Much like in rivers, the hole will hold the channel catfish for bait fishing action in ponds. Catfish will winter in the deepest holes in a pond and they will roam structure like points and flats that are close to their hole during spring, summer and fall before the ice is on. - Fly Fishing and Fly Tying Basics (Steven Magill)
Fly fishing has been around for more than 200 years and though there have been new technologies introduced in fly tying, such as the lure design making rare hairs or feathers that look like those of endangered species, the process of fly tying is basically the same. - Ed Bagley's Top 25 Poll - Week 11 - All Unbeaten Teams Win Again (Ed Bagley)
Stanford, North Carolina, Central Florida, California and Rutgers all recorded upset wins over ranked opponents in college football's 11th week of play, with the biggest upset going to 25th-ranked Stanford over 11th-ranked Southern California, 55-21. Ohio State and TCU won major victories over ranked opponents as well. These events caused changes in my Top 25 Poll. Here is how I see it this week: - Rubik's 360 - A New Twist on an Old Favorite. (Nick Gent)
If you liked the original Rubik's Cube puzzle game, you will love the new Rubik's 360 puzzle game! Invented by the same person who came up with the original Rubik's Cube, the new Rubik's 360 puzzle game is similar in many ways to the original but is actually a totally different game. - Some of the Best Fly Fishing Vacation Around the Globe (Steven Magill)
This is true because of the evolution of the sport from its early days when it was popular to just a few states to the introduction of fly fishing via television and magazines which had a profound effect especially to city dwellers that needed to find ways to distress from the rigors of the concrete jungle. As more and more people got into fly fishing, the development of the fly fishing vacation industry emerged. - College Football Week 11 - Southern Cal's 7 Years of Excellence Ends, Stanford Wins, 55 - 21 (Ed Bagley)
Southern California's streaks of 7 straight BCS bowls, 7 straight 11-win seasons, 7 straight top-4 AP poll finishes, and a 7-year stranglehold on the Pac-10 Conference title ended when Stanford's Toby Gerhart rushed for 178 yards and 3 touchdowns as the 25th-ranked Cardinals upset the Trojans 55-21 in an away game.
