Im. trying to buy a camera and my problem is that i've never owned one before. I did a little research and there are a few cameras that seemed really good. Which is better if i want durability, quality, and style? (in that order)
a Olympus stylus 720 SW (the waterproof, shockproof),
Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T50,
Casio Exilim Zoom EX-Z70,
or a Cannon PowerShot SD700 IS Digital ELPH.
if u know any other cameras that are great pls. tell me

Since you are new at this, I won't bore you with all the details, but I will tell you that I have decided to purchase a Canon SD700-IS for myself as soon as the Christmas season passes. Among this group of cameras, it is the ONLY one with an optical viewfinder, so you will now have the opportunity to read my rant about why I think you must have an optical viewfinder.
I would choose almost any camera with an optical viewfinder over one that only has an LCD viewfinder. Why?
1. You never have the option of turning off the LCD and these things eat batteries for lunch and spit them out. Why do away with the option of a viewfinder that has zero electrical drain?
2. It can be difficult to see the image on an LCD in bright sunlight, even if they are "new and improved."
3. You have to hold an LCD viewer out at some distance in front of your face. This is more conspicuous than I prefer to be all the time.
4. The need to hold a camera at arms length will introduce some shake. I like the idea of stabilizing a camera against my face when I am taking a picture. This is especially important with a longer zoom lens. No wonder "image stablization" or "vibration reduction" is necessary with these cameras. Not that there's anything WRONG with IS or VR, but it is really a requirement with LCD viewfinders and telephoto lenses.
5. Using the LCD to view photos after you've taken them slows down the camera quite a bit. You can't shut of the LCD monitor and still take pictures if you don't have an optical viewfinder.
Bottom line - I am going to buy a Canon SD700-IS and, as long as it is on your list, I think you should, too.
