Digital cameras: Low price High features

[witts]

im looking for a digital camera, just to keep in my bag and for general use, nothing over spec, just a quality for camera for everyday snaps.

looking to spend max of £180

I have a Canon Powershot S230 for sale if you're interested. Almost brand new, no scratches at all, rarely taken outta the house. I'm moving on to a Canon Powershot G series.

The S230 takes alot of nice pictures, voted one of the best portables out there. Check out www.dpreview.com

Let me know if you're interested, thanks!

Go for the IXUS series from Canon.

Personally I carry my IXUS 30 aka. SD200 around in my pocket:

Hey Witts. I did alot of research online and went to quite a few stores before I purchased a digi cam. Ended up buying a Fuji, Finepix 5500. Its a really good camera, 4mega pixels but apparently pumps out more due to hexagonal pixels or something like that. Its black and SLR style and you can buy additional lenses etc. It worked out the cheapest for the features, check them out, I rate them.

i have a powershot 520, it is 4mp, and has some of the best features out there.

[witts]

i was after something a bit more compact

[Geowu]

the problem with compact is that it may not be firm enough in your hand to take steady pictures.

i think i'm gonna go with this [url=" http://www.pixmania.co.uk/uk/uk/90198/art/sony/cyber-shot-dsc-s60.html#"] <a href="http://www.pixmania.co.uk/uk/uk/90198/art/sony/cyber-shot-dsc-s60.html#" target="_blank">http://www.pixmania.co.uk/uk/uk/90198/art/sony/cyber-shot-dsc-s60.html#</a>

unless you print, get the most expensive 3MP camera you can find.

there you go.
