If you want a digital camera, have a look at this site�s sample images for various cameras.

I think the Canon and Nikon images are the best. After looking at this I bought a used Nikon Coolpix 2200 on ebay about 3 years ago for �60, and I�ve been very pleased with it. You�ll get something better for the same money now, I expect.

Panasonic Lumix, I have the TZ3 which is a higher model but fantastic!

the fuji finepix are generally considered to be about the best "budget" cameras on the market at the moment

We have the fuji finepix A920. Definately idiot proof because I can use it lol Takes great pictures too with all its different modes. We keep it on babymode so we can take pics of the little one without a flash going off.
