I currently have a camera that I absolutely HATE. The pictures have a greenish tint to them, flash is horrible, and shot-to-shot time is painful. I am looking for a camera that is compact, with excellent image quality. I've been doing some research over the internet, and so far Canon, Sony, and Fuji seem to be good. Someone please help me! Thank you... =)

Consumer Reports for November 2006 has ranked the Canon Powershot A620 as the best compact digital camera. It is becoming almost a legend for longevity at the top of various consumer lists. It looks like this model has been replaced by the A630, which I would expect to be just as popular. The A640 appears quite similar and shares the "600" series numbering, so I guess it's just another upgraded version of the now-classic A620. It looks pretty much the same except for baing a 10 MP camera. The continuous drive is a little slower, but the files are larger, so that's no surprise. I own a few Nikon DSLR's and I'd buy the Canon A630 or A640 for myself.
With this camera, you will find the memory card is a cute little token of thanks from Canon, but not much more. Buy a 1 GB Sandisk Ultra II or Extreme III card. You will NEED the increased capacity and write speed to fully realize the benefits of your camera.

Love my Canon Powershot cameras. I have a SD400 and S1 SI. Newer versions are out. Easy to use and great, great quality.

I have the Canon Powershot SD450 5MP dig. camera. Its awesome. But if your willing to go up to $400, you could bump it up a notch to the better ones.

Look, you are cornering yourself into a corner. Search the internet on reviews and product recalls, etc. Be a smart shopper and stop freakin out. That is what the Republicans want everyone to do.
