Ok, I know I'll get a LOT of different answers, but in your opinion what is the best moderate priced (200.00-400.00) digital camera. I have a kodak z760 which I love, but I would love to get a better camera for Disney.
 
Unless you find a REALLY good deal on a Pentax DSLR, I would personally say that the Canon S3IS or the newer S5IS is a great bang for your buck. They are great cameras. Another one is Fugi brand although I don't know the model numbers. They should take slightly better low light photos than the Canon. I haven't seen side by side comparisons though.
 
Currently there are 3 DSLRs priced under $400(b4 any rebates) at Buydig/Beachcamera dotcoms.

Oly E-330 $319
Pentax K100d $359
Canon Rebel XT $379

But they are all lens less.
 
It's really impossible to make a recommendation w/o knowing your priorities. If image quality is your top concern, you'd be wise to go with one of the dslr's that Anewman mentioned. If you prefer something compact and are willing to sacrifice some image quality to achieve that, there are loads of other choices. This is a useful tool for finding the camera models that are available in your price range with the features that you want: http://www.myproductadvisor.com/mpa/camera/inputSummary.do

Good luck!
