...this camera in Europe is Canon Ixus i zoom, I bought this camera like a present to my wife two years ago, it cost abot 350 $.

Advantages: Small, Lots of features, Large screen, Light, Lots of Colors, Fast Response.
Disadvantages: XD Card, No Sport Mode, 4.0 Mega Pixels.

I have had this camera for a few years now and I am still happy with it. While it is only 4 mega pixels that has not been a problem for me. Like most people I do not blow up my pictures and print them on a large canvas. It fits into the palm of my hand or any pocket I want to slip it in. So it is great to take anywhere and not think twice because you barely notice you have it. It is very easy to use with very clear settings. It has preset scenes ...
...time, Candle Light, Automatic, Through Glass, Portrait, Landscape, Landscape with Portrait and even Fireworks). While in automatic mode it is as simple as point-and-click. To get a little more advanced you can do some really neat things. For example, you can make your picture Sepia or Black & White or even put 2 pictures in the 1 photo. My favorite feature is the Panorama which guides you on where to shoot your next picture and then you stitch them ... Read review

Advantages: I can't quite find any.
Disadvantages: Bulky, awful battery life.

I've used this camera a bit before getting my Casio. It doesn't have many onboard features. It's just your basic point-and-shoot consumer camera.

I can barely take 5 pictures before the AA batteries die, and that alone is enough to not gain my recommendation for this camera. ... Read review

Advantages: All-metal body, easy to work with, great photos, interfaces well with lots of computers
Disadvantages: When I purchased mine, price-and these days, that it doesn't come in fun colors

I really love this camera, and still depend upon it! I find that it rarely takes a bad picture, is very reliable and user friendly. Changing memory cards(it uses SD cards which I favor, and which are inexpensive and readily available)and batteries is simple. It has a nice interface to view the photos on its memory card, too. In addition, it is very durable, having an all-metal body(my sister has dropped hers many times without ill effects). Its ...
...it has a decent set of specs despite that. Its use of battery life isn't bad, either. I have had this camera for several years and have yet to have any problems with it, including the LCD screen. I've downloaded its photos onto 3 very different computers(Mac OSX, Windows ME)and it was a snap with each of them. ... Read review

Advantages: User friendly
Disadvantages: Little memory card included

...is photographic), I bought Fujifilm FinePix Z20fd about three months ago. I like Fujifilm FinePix Z20fd. It is very easy to use. I think some one who are not a professional photrographers can use it. The packet included user manual book that very easy to understand. We can start to shoot the object and make a good pictures quality. Some time we can make movie with MPEG4 video format. We can increase the movie duration by adding more memory card capacity. ...
