Josh nows his camera stuff.
It might be worth buying a new Elph or Powershot. $225+
I like the idea of a new in box camera vs used.
With the less expensive cameras($200-1000), if anything goes wrong, they are garbage.

A560 (the price I'm getting is $159.95).

Amazon.com: Canon PowerShot A560 7.1MP Digital Camera with 4x Optical Zoom: Electronics

(Second) best entry level, sub $200 point-and-shoot on the market (top would be the 570IS @ $199.00, but that's doubling grads budget). Lens extension and boot-up is < 1 sec., between photo write-delay is also around only 1 sec, auto focus adjustment is ~.3 sec.

You would need to consider a big memory card though. The included 16Mb card will hold all of about 4 pictures at max resolution.

Good call, I was looking for the S750 & 800's.

These days, CompactFlash cards can be found for about $10/GB... so $20ish for 2gb and 40ish for 4gb.

Note: you need to use deal sites for these deals, such as slickdeals.net (go to the forums, search for 'Compact Flash', search titles only checkbox).

Be wary of the New York/ New Jersey electronics dealers!
Some are quite unscrupulous.

2Gb Sandisk SD for $18.00 Shipped.

eBay: 2GB SanDisk Secure Digital SD Memory Card 2 GB for Wii (item 270137037334 end time Jun-27-07 12:40:35 PDT)

Bonus points that SD memory is also what can be used in the Nintendo Wii, so Grad can utilize the Photo Channel to display slideshows on his TV.

BTW, I think SD speeds are somewhat overrated. Flash recharge is usually the big killer on digicams, not SD write speed.

looks like some ugly reviews:

http://forums.photographyreview.com/...ad.php?t=13289

Amazon is selling it for 159.

you can get almost the same price from more trusted sellers like these:
http://cameras.pricegrabber.com/digi...24/search=A560

Pricegrabber is a great place to check seller ratings as well as prices. Dryden, you were correct on powershot pricing, I was using pricewatchearlier.

Here's a good master list of powershots:

I wasn't sure about Broadway either. I had PM'ed Grad earlier and advised him to call the 1-800 number to order and pay by C.O.D. No risk there since you can refuse the shipment if it's not what you order.

Reading the reviews, if these people are really complaining about getting hammered on accessory packages, though, then that's their own damn fault. Of course a company is going to say, "Well, since you're buying 'W' for this, why not buy 'X,' 'Y,' and 'Z' for $19 more?" It's not bait-and-switch unless the original camera was never in stock at that price to begin with. From those reviews, it sounds like those buyers were given an 'option' to switch the package?

These are probably the same people that let pimple-faced teens guilt them into two 128 oz Cokes, a big bucket of popcorn, and four candy bars at the concession stand of the movie theater.

The S2 IS takes great shots and let's you get somewhat sophisticated if you like. But it is a bit bulky.

I got the SD450 just to carry in my pocket. Still takes nice pictures, but not quite as crisp and doesn't have as much zoom as the S2.
I second the Canon. I have the SD700 IS and love it.

Just stay away from the Pentax Optio. It's a great compact size but takes really lousy pics.

CNET editors' review

Compared to its siblings in Canon's SD line of compact point-and-shoot cameras, the top-end SD700 IS packs more features into its small frame than higher resolution. It shares the same 6-megapixel sensor as its peers, the PowerShot SD600 and SD630 but has a longer zoom lens and image stabilization to curb blurry photos.
The Canon PowerShot SD700 IS is compact, though slightly larger than the other two models. Still, it's the right size to slip into a jacket or a loose pants pocket. At 6.8 ounces, it's a bit heavy for its small size, giving it a nice, solid feel.
The camera's intelligently laid-out controls are comfortable to operate, though with a few minor annoyances. Most of the controls are located on the back panel, leaving only the shutter release and zoom rocker on the top edge of the camera. I'm not crazy about the zoom rocker, which encircles the shutter release. Though its small nub makes it easy to find and responsive to use, I'd have preferred it to be slightly larger. You select among the shooting and playback modes via a half-covered, View-Master-like wheel on the right side of the camera.
The main camera controls rest in a four-way-plus-OK pad, while menu, print, and display buttons sit next to the LCD screen. You change the flash, timer, macro, and ISO sensitivity settings directly through the control pad, while more technical settings such as exposure compensation, white balance, and color adjustment are accessed via the function menu. The buttons are round and responsive, and they feel comfortable even under large thumbs. My only real quibble with the SD700's control layout is the tiny, finicky power button, which is wedged in an uncomfortable position just above the LCD screen and to the right of the viewfinder.
