hi folks,
me's thinking about buying a digital camera.
now, it's not really for takin shots of people, more for lovely pics of the countryside.
so, can anyone recommend a good enough one which wont cost me an arm & a leg??

| I bought a new camara 2 months ago (for my birthday), Olympus [mju] - 400, with 4 megapixels, 3x optical zoom. I looked at alot of diffrent cameras, and really wanted to buy Casio Elimix. A very good camera and a huge screen. I tested both and found out that Oplympus was best. Its even waterproof, so good for outdoor shooting =) |

We have a Canon 10d.
If it's a digital SLR you are looking for you should check the 10d, or the 300d out.
I've definately had a lot of fun with it... |

excellent cameras! But really not for the average joe :(
My next camera is either Nikon D70 or Canon 300D |

| canons are pretty good. my 2 megapixel beats sony's 2 megapixel by a mile and then some more. i have s330, it's rather obsolete now, but in general canons are very good point and shoot cameras and they even have some manual control for a smaller price. |

That's if you want totally retarded and 100 % biased advice :p
Best buy is the crap for getting real advice. They'll always say bigger is better; more money is more quality.
And fyi the guy does **NOT** live in the continental US so he's gonna be out of luck trying to bother one of the best buy crappy salesmen. |

i'll modify that: just go to Best Buy and play around with the cameras, see what they feel like, which controls you like and which you don't... i might be used to the controls on my cam, but i find the controls on the later canons are pretty confusing. |
