- Mike, You might try taking them to Schiller's in Manchester or one of the Creve Coeur Camera shops and have them or you talk to someone. These stores will often have camera classes free with a purchase of a camera so that your parents can learn how to use all the features on their particular camera. I've dealt with Schiller's in the past on the Pro side and they are very helpful.

Like what you use and if you like it or not? I'm looking to buy a new camera for my parents for our trip to Alaska in a few weeks, I have been searching online and reading a bunch of reviews. I am looking for something that is digital and easy to use for my mom! I would like something that they can use to take pictures for good outdoor scenery for our trip but something that will also capture those action shots when taking pictures of my niece and nephews in all their sporting events and doesn't need extra flashes for those indoor musicals and concerts! I am not looking to spend lots of money on a professional camera but would like something that is not cheap either! I like the Digital SLR cameras but I am looking at the digital point and shoots also! I am looking in the $500 dollar range but not limited to that amount. I would like something that will take good quality photos that they can also print photos on their Kodak Printer! Could you also suggest places that you like buying your camera equipment from whether it be online or a local store! I have about two weeks before we leave and would like to buy one this week so I have time to read the manual (yes I actually read manuals but my mom won't)! Although I would have plenty of time to read it on the plane trip out there!!! Thanks ahead of time SLAGA folks!!!
