<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Just Carl, post: 100459, member: 4552&quot;]Again I might suggest the Fuji series such as the S5000 or S7000. The S9000 is still to new and costly. These are a little on the larger size cameras but are capable of everyday shooting for all practical purposes and 2 sttings for great close up abilities. Always check for the type of batteries your camera may use. Example is the Mavica series which only uses Sony Batteries and are very costly. Many cameras use AA batteries which are available everywhere. One nice thing about the Fuji is the fact that it has both an XD memory card AND a Compact Flash card at the same time inside. You can easily switch between the two without removing or changing anything except the settings. Gives you more photo ability while on vacation without carrying spare stuff. Even the built in flash has settings for strength and the camera has a hot shoe for larger flash units. Not that I&#039;m partial to this camera but for all around usage can&#039;t be beat. </p><p>One more thing is to check your web sites for camera shows. They have them just like coin shows, gun shows, knife shows, etc. Great for photo education and much cheaper to buy a camera.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
