the question would be if there is one? then yes

I know you are asking about a Sony or Kodak but I must say that Canon offers better quality when it comes to imaging. The Canon PowerShot S3 is definitely one of the best cameras in its class right now. This is a 6MP camera with a flip out screen. The pictures will be extremely crisp and sharp. Comes w/ a 1 year warranty and all the extras. Maybe a little bigger than you are looking for but WOW! What an awesome camera and package.

Also, if you are looking for a cheaper camera but one that will take a decent quality picture and easy to use check out the Canon PowerShot A630 camera at http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-1751-2...

Good luck!
