Kodak's EasyShare M380 is next up in order of cheapest, with an MSRP and street price of $180. For $50 more than the S220 you get a bigger camera with a bigger LCD and a bigger zoom. Maximum aperture again is 3.1, with a max ISO of 1600, but again ISO 400 is the realistic max if you hate grain as much as we do.

Out of the box the M380 feels a little lower end than the S220, with its plasticy body and slightly squishy buttons, but the mode-selector wheel on the top makes tweaking the camera quick and easy (even if we kept confusing it for the shutter release) and a dedicated button on top for disabling the flash is a nice touch, too. Also nice is the USB charger, which would mean one fewer AC adapter to pack.
