I'm 13 too, and I would DEFINITELY suggest a Canon. By FAR the most user friendly, and the quality of image is AMAZING. Try to get one with Image Stabilization if you can afford it, because it's a must. The A-series ones are cheap, but the SD-series ones are smaller, and come with a rechargeable battery.
I have the SD800 IS and I love it. Also, the A570 IS is great, for less money.
good luck!

Even though I personally own this ultra compact camera, I would still like to highly recommend the purchase of a Nikon Coolpix L10 for the following reasons:
1. Besides taking well-exposed hi-quality 5 megapixel pictures, it uses a standard set of rechargeable double AA batteries which last a very long time;
2. Has a 3x optical zoom;
3. Takes "continuous" 2 frames per second "action/sports" images;
4. Has macro feature for close-ups of small objects focused under 6 inches;
5. The flash setting for "red-eye" correction is on the navigator wheel and not within a submenu;
6. It's very small and light;
7. Uses inexpensive SD memory cards - a 2 gig card sells for $19 at samys.com;
8. The digital video feature takes wonderful "sound" videos which are noise free. It records the piano very well with it's built-in microphone;
9. It comes with a USB 2.0 transfer cable which you connect to your USB computer port;
10. Has tripod mount on bottom of camera;
11. And the price is a mere $119 [sold at Samy's Camera - www.samys.com, and Staples.com.]
Review(s) can be found at www.amazon.com [Query: "Nikon Coolpix L10" along with pictures provided by satisfied purchasers.]
Good luck!

Well, I'm not 13. I'm 55. I take about 50 or so pics on a digital camera every day as part of my job. I can't speak to picture quality, but I will say that the Canon's I've had are really tough. I abuse mine a lot, and yet they always seem to get at least 40,000 pics before they die. Then I just get another Canon. I currently am using the SD800 IS

It would have helped a bit if you mentioned about how much you plan to spend. Off hand I'd say look into the Canon A series, and the Sony Cybershot W sweries.

The type of brand that you should get in my opinion is a Kodak. I know someone that has one and it produces very clear and sharp images. With some of the Kodak cameras you get the printer as well if you find a good deal.

The most user friendly and best are undoubtedly canon
Though you might consider a sony cybershot if you are willing to spend a few bucks extra( 100 at most)
The canon powershot series is the best one for u. might i suggest the powershot 750 . its brilliant. i have 1 and i am really happy with it
