What type of camera is best?

The ones i'm think of is those rectangular black ones with the big lens, about the size of a large deck of cards, type thing, and with the strap? I've heard of like Nikon and w/e but dunno what is best BUT reasonbly cheap?

I think you might be looking for a DSLR or an EVIL camera. If you could clarify which one you want by doing a quick search on them, as well as telling us what "reasonably cheap" is, that would be great.

However, I would suggest checking out the Canon, Nikon, Sony websites for sure. There you can find something that fits under your budget with the features you want.
