My Kodak got dropped by one of my friends and it doesn't work anymore, so I need a new camera.
It needs ...
MOST OF ALL TO BE UNDER $200!
1. To fit easily in my pocket
2. To be durable to drops
3. To take good quality pictures (point and shoot)
4. At least 3.0 MP's
5. Video capabilities
6. A nice big screen, like 2.5"
7. A reasonable battery life
And just a few extras I would love to have but don't necessarily need:
Different color modes
Camera modes like fireworks, indoors, action, etc.
Image shake reduction (?) I really believe buying a camera is an individual choice.
The person needs to read alot of reviews on cameras and learn as much as they can from the internet.
Go to the store and hold them and try them to see what they feel like and how they take pictures.
I can only give a suggestion of what to look for in a new digital camera.
Good Luck
my suggestion
go to yahoo shopping

digital camera GUIDE
be sure to check titles on the left side
the guide should answer your questions This is JUST the PERFECT camera for you!
You should get the PENTAX Optio W30. It has TONS of features, VERY good picture quality, its sleek & stylish. And to add to all that, its waterproof! You can see the camera here: http://www.pentaximaging.com/products/pr...
I have had the PENTAX Optio W10 (a slighty older version) for a few years now and I absolutely LOVE it! A Canon IXUS or a Nikon S4 or S10!! And look on Ebay for price differences! Here a link to a guide on ebay that I used before I bought my digital camera and it was very helpful.
