Whatever you get make sure it has an anti-shake feature (whatever is called) some digital cameras are very sensitive to movement and take very blury pictures..

For what its worth there are a few good points in the thread.

Dont get an SLR unless you are serious about photography, you'll get fed up of carting it around with you

If buying a compact, buy one with a viewfinder, dont be tempted by a viewing screen ... you'll regret it as you won't be able to see it properly in bright sunlight.

My two penneth, pay a bit extra and get a Canon. They are reliable, good pictures, and the software you get with them is excellent for both sorting and manipulating your piccies.

Nope, I'm just like Canon cameras, and I've had Pentax, Minolta, right down to a Zenith EM!
