Looking for digital camera for my DD11

[DisneyBug1995]

My DD11 really wants a digital camera for Christmas. Can any body recommend a good camera that is easy to use and is less than $200.

TIA

Giving this a bump for you.

I bought a Fuji A800 8.1 MPfor my son back in July. http://www.amazon.com/Fujifilm-Fine...718042?ie=UTF8&s=photo&qid=1194790473&sr=1-24 It's now in the low $100+ range.

I also bought a Panasonic TZ3. http://www.amazon.com/Panasonic-DM...8718042?ie=UTF8&s=photo&qid=1194791180&sr=1-3 I saw it at Sam's club the other day for around $200 total. I really like this camera it is idiot proof and the Optical Image stabalization is wonderful.

Here are some pics I took using the TZ3 in China:

Through the bus windows while in motion:

In complete darkness, except for some red lights:

Hope that helps...

Bought one DD a Canon A540 and the other a Coolpix L6 last X-mas. Both take nice pictures and are in the under $150 range. The Coolpix has no viewfinder, tho. DD didn't care it was(she recently lost it) mostly for myspace type pics. I've used the A540 while hiking. It takes a nice picture.

You have so many options and all definitely under $150! I just saw an ad for black friday that has a 7 or 10 mp for $99! Hot pink and takes videos too. I'm kind of vague on details, but it was either a Kodak easyshare or Nikon. DD got our old Nikon Coolpix and it takes great pictures (we moved on to SLR). The only thing I do NOT like on that one is a longer recharge period on flashes.

What a great gift idea...she'll have so much fun with it!
