What's the best mid-range digital camera for a good price?

I'm looking for a digital camera under $200 CDN, and I don't do any online shopping - I like going into stores to find things I want, although I do research online. I'm looking for some cameras that are slim easy to carry around and use. Not necessarily looking for something over 6.1MP but would prefer something over 5.1.

That is easy, optical. The digital zoom is just making things larger by using reduced data, whereas the optical zoom is using the lens to increase the size of the image and full image array.

Consider an image and divide it into 4 parts. To double the size of an image, it will actually be 4 times the size (remember, you are doubling the width, as well as the height). Well, the digital zoom is the opposite of that. If you double the image, you are using 1/4 of the image and duplicating the pixels (with perhaps some calculations).

I have disabled the digital zoom on my camera. If you want to zoom in, you can do so on your computer, but at least you have as much data (image) as possible.

The best I think is the Canon A630 or A640 because they take excellent pictures. You also can take manuel pictures if you want as well. Stick with Canon you can never go wrong.
