Which one?!

[Caspersmum]

Hey guys,

 

I'm wondering if anyone's bought an ultra-compact digital camera recently. I've been looking at a couple - a casio and a cannon ixus 70. Just wondered if anyone had any experience, and if so what. I'm wanting it to take to South Africa with me - so lots of wildlife stuff - but also for pics of Casper (and the odd other thing when I get back). I'm really after something VERY compact that'll take good snaps - I'm no photographer and I'm not going to have much space in my luggage.

 

Thanks!

I think Sony and Canon have some small digital cameras that would fill the bill for very compact cameras.

What do you want to spend... Did you know we have a photography thread just for this kind of question..

 

I can certainly recommend something in your budget...

Thanks both of you! I'm planning on spending about £150 (I guess that's about $300 - though I bet you get alot more for your money in the states). And it has to have a pretty decent zoom, so I can take lots of pictures of far-off animals! I also need it to be simple (kind of like me!)
