At your price point - you can't expect any significant features most people often use a camera for. There will be no Macro setting,useful if you shoot items for ebay sales.
Pixel count the rating most usefull toward making any enlargement past 4x6 inches ,will only be about 1.3 million pixels,and will have no zoom only a fixed 35mm wide angle lens for shooting parties in your home ,or vacation vistas.
I doubt you can get a
2.1 million pixs at that price unless you buy used. A 2.1 million is definitly worth buying,it will make a 5x7 up to not a great 8x10.
they might run around $300-400.with a zoom from 35-135mm lensA 3.3 million pixel camera around $500-600 will make an 11x14 also they come with a longer reaching zoom lens 28- 190mm
