Looking for a digital camera

Ranger1

Hey guys I'm looking into getting a digital camera. I would like to find one under the $200 mark. If anyone has any recommendations please post them. Also please post links to pictures you have taken with it(if possible), a place I can find it for a good price, the manufacturers website for the item, and if it is easy to use. Thanks ahead of time.

I have a Sony DSC-P30 1.3mp,the optics seem pretty good, it has a nice assortment of features and takes some nice macros for a sub 200$ camera.

I hear the Canon A10 or 20 is really good.

You'll want to buy an extra 32 or 64meg memory card, the 4 or 8 meg ones included really aren't big enough.

Oh yea, batteries. Really important. If it comes with alkalines, pitch'em and get rechargable mickel-metal hydrates(Ni-Mh) or rechargable Lithiums. Alkalines just don't have what it takes for digicams.

I REALLY like Sony cameras...I have one of their cameras, and am completely happy with the thing. I know some people don't like memory sticks, but since they use FAT they read just like another drive on your computer, makes file transferring extremely easy. Easy menu systems, good options, and most of all, good pictures.

And their battery life (using NI-MH in the AA models or Li-Ion in their larger cameras) is very, very good.
