  A good entry level digital camera.

If you want a basic, simple to use cheap digital camera - this is a good choice. It is pretty compact, and has all the basic features you will need.
You will need to make sure you get an extra memory stick to store your photos on, and it would be well worth while investing in some good quality rechargable batteries (and a charger) as the camera comes as new with just disposible batteries.
Now discontinued, but last sold for around £100 to £130 on the high street.
Perfect for the beginner.

This is a very nice, small compact camera suited to a person new to digital cameras, who wants good results first time. It is small and easy to use and gives good value for money. I bought it for a niece who is 16 years old and loves to take pictures for personal use and schoolwork.
On the minus side, the LCD screen is a bit small and the autofocus light is very bright when taking shots. The screen can be switched of suring use and the view finder used instead, which saves on batteries.
I have bought her some high stamina rechargeable battieries for it as she goes through a lot of batteries.
All round good camera for the beginner with a good array of features and very few niggles. A bargain if the price is right.
