Good stuff there from Ducachic.
Don't get blown away by mega pixels it's the lens
I WILL CONFUSE YOU MORE
I'm no expert but i have a Sony Dscw70 about 3 years old now
7.2 mega pixel 3* optical zoom ,
carl,zeiss lens.
And a pentax DSL K10D.Did a search on google for that one, voted the best at the time against canon,Nikon equivalents.
The Sony has been a very good little camera pocket size will fit into your top pocket. great for out on the bike.
I prefer to use it more than the pentax .
for photos i am going to put up on the web i use 2 mega pixels to keep the file size down,and this is more than enough.
It has all the manual functions just to much stuff to remember, (for us older folk)
Just put it on auto an shoot.
The pentax has all the bells a whistles.
but i need to read the manual now and then just to much stuff.
The negative points with the Sony
*Zoom (newer model may be better)
*Memory cards are costly
*Battery's ,the small cameras use battery's like mobile phones and it is a good idea to have a spare with you, can be costly i have 3
Oh and then you will need some where to save all the photos
as like most don't print them out.
An external hard drive is good to keep them seperate, segate or westen digital 250 to 500 gig is enough to get started.
