The Nikon Coolpixs S50c 7.2 Megapixel Digital Camera is an excellent choice for any trip. We’ve taken this thing from Bangkok to Bogotá and all I can do is rave about it.

The lowlight setting which eliminates flash and reduces shutter speed, takes amazing shots in twilight conditions and both the 3X optical zoom and digital VR Optical Image Stabilization allow you to get sharp shots when you or the subject are on the move.

It’s got a huge, bright 3 inch LCD screen and if you want to go huge, the new ones even have built in Wi-Fi.

This camera is easy to use, lightweight, and a sexy addition to your bag of travel gear. It has come down a lot in price in the last couple months and is actually quite a bit cheaper than comparable models from other brands.

$169.95 | BUY
