GE's most affordable entry-level digital camera, the A730 offers a host of valuable features and a simple, intuitive user interface, making it a favorite of casual photographers everywhere. The camera boasts an ultra-sharp 7-megapixel resolution, along with a 3x optical zoom and a 4.5x digital zoom. As a result, it's a breeze to capture superior close-ups that look great whether displayed on a computer screen or printed out on a photo printer. The vibrant 2.5-inch LCD screen, meanwhile, makes it easy to frame your subject and review your images, with a resolution of 153,600 pixels ensuring a crisp image every time. And users aren't restricted to still images, as the A730 takes MPEG4 movies as well.

Packed inside the A730's sleek and stylish body are several editing functions and shooting modes, including electronic image stabilization, which automatically overcomes shaking or blurring caused by accidental hand movements to produce clearer photos; in-camera panoramic stitching, which stitches three images into a single panoramic picture to produce an ultra-wide shot; face-detection technology, which detects faces in a scene and then automatically focuses and optimizes exposure for them; and red-eye removal, which removes the appearance of red eyes in shots taken with a flash. In addition, the camera offers multiple scene modes--such as sports, children, indoor, snow, sunset, etc.--and a continuous shooting option for sports and other fast-moving subjects. Finally, there's no shortage of playback options, ranging from single photo to slideshow to histogram display. Powered by two AA batteries, the A730 even includes an SD/SDHC memory card slot that's expandable up to 4 GB. You'll be hard pressed to find a more feature-rich entry-level camera.

Other details include a macro mode (5 cm to infinity); 26 MB of internal memory; support for PictBridge-compatible printers; a USB 2.0 interface; and a sleek black housing. The A730 measures 3.68 by 2.4 by 1.12 inches (W x H x D), weighs 0.29 pounds, and carries a one-year warranty.
