| If you wanna spend around $500, then look into the Canon S400. |

| If you were not strapped on cash i would recommend atleast go for a 3.2 MP camera, i just got a Sony 5 Mp camera DSC V1 about a month back. |

| a good quality cam.. Canon s230 3.2MP for under $500 its really worth it to get something 3MP and up if you plan on ever having prints made. |

Olympus, Fuji and Canon are making the best digital cameras right now. Olympus and Fuji seem a little more high-end and Canon has a more affordable product line. Check out http://www.dpreview.com for detailed reviews and information... Apparently Canon has announced 20 new compact models for 2004 in an effort to grab more of the market share so that may cause prices to drop in the not-to-distant future.
IMO stay away from Sony since most of their models only take sony memory sticks. You'll want something that uses SD (Secure Digital) cards or Compact Flash (type 1 and 2) - they have the largest sizes available, the most promise for the future and a wide variety of manufacturers competing for your dollar. |

| I have a pentax optio S and it's one of the best digital camera that I've ever owned. It fits into a deltoids box. It has a 3.2Mp pic quality, 3X optical zoom, it's the lightest camera out there, it has movie mode, it can be used as a sound recorder (in the case you would want to record picture descriptions), battery charger, takes SD cards (now these things come in 1Gb), etc... The list of features is huge! |

The Canon A70 or A80 is a great choice. I have the A70 but am eyeing the A80 b/c of its swivel screen. It give you the possiblilty of taking pics in every angle imaginable. |
