drezzay-

The Sony P-73 was introduced in early 2004. It is a competent 4mp digital camera, using two AA size batteries. It is currently selling new on the internet at more than $200. If it is in good condition and you could take a picture or two before purchasing to check it operationally, it is probably worth considering.

I would steer clear of the Nikon 885. It is a much older digital camera and suffered from a number of quirks.
