2. Olympus FE-230 is the second ...(169.00)
3.Sony Cyber-shot DSC-S650, third ...(149.00) Here's my standard "Best Cheap Camera" answer...
Some of our best answerers always recommends the Fujifilm FinePix F20 camera as the best-for-less choice. I have to say that I like the sample images at Steve's site (below). If Morey000 or SpaceCowboy show up after me and make this recommendation, choose them as the best answer, because I'm just passing along their suggestion. I have no personal experience with this camera.

My brother has the A540 and my mother-in-law has the A530 - on my recommendation - and neither one has stopped speaking to me yet. Based on this and experience with other Canon Powershot cameras, I am now recommending the A550 as a nice and relatively inexpensive camera. The A550 has more pixels than the A540, but offers less user control.
The A540 has been discontinued, but I've seen it for $140 in some stores like WalMart and Target.
The A550 costs $160 at B&H and, of course, you'll need a memory card.

digital camera GUIDE
be sure to check titles on the left side
the guide should answer your questions Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ1S Silver/Black Digital Camera.
This is the world's second smallest digital camera that has 10x OPTICAL zooms on the planet. The smallest is Kodak Easyshare V610 which costs way over $200.
This camera is only 5.0 Megapixels, but these days people are mislead into thinking that the more Megapixels the better camera it is, it's true someway if you're true photographer professional who needs to take huge pictures, but it's really unnecessary, a 4.0 or 5.0 Megapixel camera is plenty good enough to take and print huge printers that are bigger than your computer screen.
you can get this at $170 from pricegrabber search.
