yeah for my old Nikon that took AA's I bought some rechargeable batteries.... I could take well over 200 photos on one charge, even using flash and such

Re: Digital Camera Help
 

i have a sony dsc p100 (i think that is the model..)

things that sold me

small
decent size lcd screen
batteries!!! this is rechargeable. some are not, which means you are diggin in the wallet when they run dead

you can always change memory cards later, came with a 32 mb and now i have a 512 mb (i can take ~200 pics at 5.1 mpi or 1000 at 1 mp)

there is no dock (thing to set the camera on) it is a usb cord, so if you are at a friends, you would only need to bring a small cord that can easily fit in your pocket.

check out

www.slickdeals.net they offer some good coupons now and then.. there is a website that a guy does reviews on nearly every camera available, i will try and find it for ya.

I'd definitely go with Nikon, Canon, Olympus, or Sony.

My girl got me this one for xmas. It works real well. Really easy to use, takes nice pics.

I really like Sony cameras.Have had no problems with them and they are fairly strightforward to use.Whatever you buy get one with the newer larger LCD screens.They are much nicer to use.
