   hi billy
   i guess the answer to your question lies in what you want from your camera.
   optical zoom, high megapixels, slr, macro, or whatever.

   good digital cams are avail in that range you could ask my fater he recently bought a real good one.

   Hi Schizo,
   The problem is I don’t know what to want from the camera. I know nothing about them. SLR? No idea what that means. Macro? Ditto. I know that the answers are only a search away - but I prefer taking advice from someone with some expireance.

   Anyway, which camera did your father buy?

   And, my name in Binny - not Billy

   Hi Binny,
   You need max 5 mega pixels for normal usage, unless you are planning to make a big potrait.

   You can go for a Sony or Cannon Digi cam, unless you are planning to go proffessional. I have a Sony W7, which is a bit old but has very good pic quality. Ppl say Cannon is best for Digi cams and Sony for camcorders.

   You can check out the website CNET.com. It has got decent review on latest models available in the market. Just see the reviews section. It’s easy..

   I bought a digicam recently, too. It was a Canon Digital Ixus 860IS.

   You need to understand your own needs. Do you shoot frequently? Do you need it to be small and pocketable? Do you need to print very large sizes, or just small prints and computer viewing?

   Based on these answers, I can help you in the decision.

   PS: I am from Thrissur, Kerala.

   PPS: Mail me and I’ll be glad to help you out. I love helping to decide on gadget shopping.

   Thanks for the offer - but I have bought a Camera - Cannon PowerShot A640. I think it fits my purposes.

   Summesh and Binny, need your advice on which one is better
   Canon Digital Ixus 860IS or
   Cannon PowerShot A640

   My preference is that i want good quality pics. I am not a professional, but i like to think of myself as one
   so i need a good digi cam to satisfy the artist in me. any suggestions?

   I like my Cannon PowerShot. It has enough features to be useful - and not too much - so it will not confuse me.

   For a beginner, its a good camara.
