I'm looking at digital cameras in the $200-290 range. I was going to get a Kodak dx4530 , but other than being 5 megapixels I have heard it isn't do hot. I'm also looking at the Canon A70.

I'd like for the camera to also be able to take good low-light and closeup shots (like underneath a car (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) ).

What can you all recommend?

I recently bought the Canon A80, anyone know how it stacks up? It seemed pretty good from the reviews. I'm still learning the ins and outs the. All I ever owned before it were disposables. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

4 meg, 3x optical zoom. I prefer more optical zoom, but I'm usually outside shooting stuff that is far away. With Cannons reputation and the specs on that camera, I don't think you'll be disappointed with it, it looks like a real nice piece. I would trade the for a larger size with more zoom for my use, but that is small enough to carry everywhere, and as I was once told, you'll never get any pictures with the camera you don't carry. Every camera suits a purpose, I suspect that one will fit yours just fine (and probably many others as well).

My thoughts.
