Cameras - July 2006

I've spent hours shopping around and reading reviews, and narrowed my camera choices down to 6 cameras.

Right now, I'm in the "I just need a camera that I can point and shoot" zone for the standard family pictures etc, however I would like to get a lot more into photography, and so I'd like one that has decent capabilities on the manual side too for when I get more into that. Time lapse photography seems cool too.

Here is the list:

http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/compare_post.asp?method=sidebyside&cameras=canon_a700%2Ccanon_s3is%2Ccanon_a620%2Csony_dsch2%2Cpanasonic_dmcfz7%2Cfuji_finepixs5200z&show=all

If that page doesn't work, it's between the Canon A700, A620 or S3, Sony DSC-H2, Fujifilm S5200 or Panasonic DMC-FZ7.

Right now, I'm leaning towards either the Canon A700 or S3, but all opinions are appreciated. The A700 would be good because it's pretty darn compact and easy to carry around, but the S3 seems to have a lot more capabilities. I'm very confused, please help :)

Don’t know if it’s what you are looking for, but I am selling one of mine. It just doesn’t get used these days so it sits in my camera bag redundant. The camera is a Fuji FinePix S304 – the semi SLR shape type. It is a 3.2MegaPixel, 6 X Optical zoom with a 16Mb memory card and produces excellent pictures. I’ve even got spare NiMH batteries and charger somewhere. Additional memory cards for this camera (the xD picture card) are now pretty damned cheap, you can get a 256Mb for about £20. The original cost was £267 two years ago and for some reason they do not seem to have come down in price at places such as Amazon etc. Anyway, if you are interested, I was looking to sell it for £100 and throw in the case and bits for free. I even think I have the box for it in the loft.

I have done the research on both cameras the Sony DSCH5 and the Kodak P712. I just don't know which one will be the best to buy, I know what options each has, but the reviews on each has its pros and cons. So if someone could help me to decide either Sony or Kodak.

What is the best digital camera under 200? I am not professional, just want reliable, easy use, and good pictures. I want the most bang for the buck as the saying goes.

Preferably one that shows the thumbnail image plus is able to have a drop-down menu with photo sizes & pricing. Connected to PayPal would be a great bonus...
