Father's Day is coming up next month, and you want to make sure that you get the perfect gift to show your dad that you love and appreciate him.

Even if your dad's not the most tech savvy, these gifts are pretty simple to use and they're a great way to show your dad that you care, so browse the following gifts and find the best onr for your dad.
1. Digital Camera- Cameras are a great way to take snap shots of your friends and family so that you have shots of you favorite memories with your forever. Even if you're dad has a trusted camera, a new digital camera is a great way to upgrade his photos. You may be thinking, "That's a great idea, but I don't want to spend a fortune." Well, you can find great cameras on Amazon.com for $80-$200, and they're from trusted brands like Canon, Kodak, and Sony.
2. Digital Picture Frame- Why settle for a picture frame that only views one or two pictures, when you can purchase digital frames that will view as many pictures as you upload to the frame or have sitting on your memory card. These frames come in so many different styles, sizes, and colors, that you're bound to find one that your dad will love. (By the way, it'd probably be easier to buy the spare memory card, which usually aren't but $10-$30 depending on the MB.) These frames range from $55 to $150 on Amazon.
3. Picture Printer- At home picture printers have vastly improved since their first release years ago. You know get wonderfully printed pictures at home at your own computer desk. You no longer have to run out to Wal-Mart, Wal-Greens, Target, Rite Aid, or any other business to get your digital pictures printed or picked up. Your dad will love being able to print the pictures of your graduation or his grandson's first birthday party at home so that he can proudly share them with his friends. Epson, Canon, Sony, and HP all manufacture wonderful picture printers that range in price from $69 to $200 on Amazon.com.
4. Flash Drives- I thought this was probably the coolest idea; there are so many neat ways to carry your USB drive with you, such as 1) a flash drive pen, 2) a memory watch, and 3) a Swiss Army Knife. The flash drive pen set is priced at whopping $35 and is manufactured by Edge Memory; the memory watches are priced at $58 to $100 (depending on the style); the Swiss Army knives are priced at $40 to $115, depending on the features on the knife. All three products can be found at those prices on Amazon.com.
Flash drives are a great way to carry pictures and documents from your home computer with you to open at work, school, or anywhere you need to. These USB drives are the best way to carry around more information than on the typical floppy disk or CD.
5. DVD Burner- This gift may sound expensive, but you can find DVD burners ranging in price from $25 to $200 on Amazon.com. DVD burners are a great way for your dad to burn his favorite pictures and movies onto CDs.
