Canon is rated the number one camera brand in the world. Retails for 40$ plus 8$ shipping on Amazon (4.5 our of 5 with thousands of reviews) with being refurbished. I was the only owner and have never had an issue with this camera ever, it works perfectly. The Sony Card Reader and extra memory stick was a 20$ extra when I bought it. -Two new Duracell batteries There is some battery crystallization when opening the battery port (seen in the picture) but this does not affect the camera’s functionality at all.
