Inexpensive & Good Cameras

The current cameras I'm considering a

Canon PowerShot A75
Nikon Coolpix 3200
Kodak EasyShare DX6340
Kodak EasyShare DX4530
Kodak EasyShare CX7430
Olympus Mju 300 Digital

And I'm leaning towards the first one, the Canon A75.

Any advice would be most appreciated!Canon

I looked at a similar situation a few months ago but included the Sony
MSCP72 in the list ( and eventually bought it). The MSCP72 has been replaced
by the MSCP73 but in most respects is the same camera.

up at the time that may be useful.

I'm looking to buy a fairly inexpensive digital camera, but, of course,
still want to have good quality as I'll most likely be stuck with whatever I
buy now for a few years.

If that's the case then check out the professional and user reviews especially
with regard to durability.

I say this quite often - but I'm not ashamed.

Look at the Canon A80. I don't know if it is in your price bracket but even
if it is a bit expensive to start with the extra cost becomes negligible
over a few years of use. I have used A40, A70 and A80 - the A80 is a
smashing camera.

I'd toss the Fuji S5000 out as a possible. 10X optical zoom, can be
used as a simple point and shoot or as a full manual camera and many
options in between. Not the latest option but a fine camera with quite a
few accessories . Uses 4 AA batteries, XD memory, 3.1 MegaPixel with an
interpolated 6MP setting. Multi frame and continuous shooting and video
also.
