I Have A Fujifilm Finepix Ax550, Its Good But Isn't Well On Zooming Up Close and Good Quality. 
Anyone Have Any Ideas Of Some Good Ones At Reasonable Prices? I Don't Want A Webcam A Actual Camera. I Appreciate It! 
Thing is, webcams are better for stop motion in numerous ways.
unless you want to go for a DSLR. very expensive though.
I use the Logitech C910. A bit more expensive then some at 90 dollars, but gives you fantastic quality. The Logitech Pro 9000 is older, but also cheaper at only around 50 dollars.
Although I don't own one (I have the c920), I have heard that the canon powershot series of cameras are pretty good for brickfilming (starting prices are about $100, going up to like $400). You might want to research them.
I recommend the Canon Powershots as they are very small, and have good enough image quality for brickfilming. Now for which one, you definitely need one with manual settings, which would probably mean a ''S'' series camera, like the S100, priced at 400 dollars. But that's approaching the dslr price, which can be as low as $500-550. Whatever your budget is, a webcam is a really good option if you can't go very expensive.
IBF, you may want to look at this thread: http://www.bricksinmotion.com/forums/to … iscussion/
Plenty of users here have made decisions on buying cameras with the help of their fellow brickfilmers. You may find it useful as well.
