I'd like it to be able to capture short video as well - nothing crazy. I've been using a 2mega pixel HP PhotoSmart for a few years but it's clunky and doesn't do video...It's dated and is enough to get by but who wants to just get by?
What is the best size megapixel camera for the buck? Ease of use? Are video's easily uploadable/downloadable/edited? I'm wondering if maybe I should get a camera for photo's and a digital recording device for video's... Thoughts, epinions? -pt |

I'll second the Powershot. It is small, and a damn good camera.
I also HIGHLY suggest that you go to this site: www.dpreview.com and do some research. They will give you not only good reviews for most models, but also retail and street pricing that is pretty accurate. Zach |

and do some research. I spent a bunch of time of dpreview. They weren't impressed with my Sony Cybershot, but it was a 100 percent improvement from my Olympus C700UZ. The Sony has such crisp photos and auto zoom is accuraqte 95% of the time. You can't beat a large bright LCD screen either. |
