    New Digital Camera

    OK guys, since I saw the D30 thread I thought I would throw this out there.

    I need to (finally) get a digital camera. I am leaning towards a point-and-shoot, I really have no need for a DSLR. I am looking for some reccommendations, as long as it isn't sony.

    Nikon had one that had wi-fi built in that I was lusting over briefly, but then it turns out the wi-fi is really kind of borked and not that useful.

    So anyway... what would you all pick?

    :allears:

    This is exactly what I have and I love it. I have recommended this to family and they all bought them and loved them. I think they have a z850 and a z1000 now that are newer you might want to look at as well.

    The GF has one of these.

    NDD, ask her to check it out. So small she almost always keeps it in her purse, and it takes very nice photos.

    Re: New Digital Camera

    I have a Nikon Coolpix S5 (6MP). The S7 (7MP) just hit the streets for less than $300.

    The big thing I was looking for was a camera that I could keep in my pocket and fall on (snowboarding) without it puncturing a lung and a fast startup speed to catch those pictures I kept missing. S5 has a .6 second startup from button push.

    It ended up being so small I keep it in the arm pocket on my ACUs.

    Most of the Canon or Nikon P&S cameras are pretty decent for casual usage. Save yourself some money and stick to the ones around 5-6 megapixels. ANything more than that and you're paying for numbers and hype generated by a marketing department. The Casio also seems to be nice but I've never used one.

    I have over 7000 photos with my casio... It is a nice camera. Plus full 30fps 640x480 video... Great for using to photo/video the kids.
