I'm sure this has been asked before ... but I can't get the search feature to work for some reason?

I am looking for suggestions for an affordable (under $200), good pocket-sized digital camera for our WDW trip. I've used Olympus in the past, and I liked it ... but it is just too big for me to carry in my pocket comfortably.

I've had good luck with the Casio Exilim line.

I currently have an EX-S10 that I primarily purchased to shoot videos with. Its currently the slimmest 10MP camera - it's a touch more than $200 (209 from J&R) but there are several other less expensive models that would be well under $200 depending on the features you want.

Hello from a newbie, am already amazed to read about the various Disney experiences of people and got to admit I have hardly encountered a place like this before which has such exhaustive information for almost anything you can think of. Now I could have said all this in the introductions thread but I need some ideas to get a good camera for myself something which would help me not only to capture the moments of our travel but also the special wedding moments as the wedding of my brother is slated to happen soon. I have a plan to give him a nice photo collection as one of the gift and this would be a real test of my skills, something which used to be my passion during my college days. But things have changed now so the instrument that would aid me should be perfect and hope you all can help me choose that perfectly.

We like our Nikon S210. We have had it about a month and a half with no problems.

IMO, you should start your own thread to get the best responses. Be sure to give your budget as well.
