hi :welcome:

Most digital cameras from reputable manufacturers, nowadays, are very good, so I would set yourself a minimum standard for resolution, memory & optical zoom & after that base your choice on the price & any other features that appeal. Canon have always had good reports & our little Ixus 400 has been fine for us, the newer ones are even better.

Personally I wouldn't buy a camera online, I want to be able to pick it up & see how easy it is to use, some of the smaller ones can be quite fiddly, so I would recommend going to a local specialist shop. It may cost a little more, but, in my opinion, you get that back in the extra service (and advice) a local shop will provide. :)

Another vote for Canon from me. A80 I think I have, takes great pictures fast and has a healthy battery life, a plus point to its size is its a good size to hold and take cf cards which are about the cheapest plus you can add micro drives.

Me three... Canon are great. Fantastic quality, bucket laods of features, very reasonably priced.

Vivitar are a cheaper option and take great pictures. Kelkoo is a good price comparison site

www.pixmania.co.uk is pretty resonable. I bought my kodak DX6490 from there a couple of years back.
