If you are vexing about which type to purchase get one of these used: Nikon: 885, 880, 950, 900 Minolta: F-100, F-200, F-300, S304, S404 Oltmups: 3020, 3030, 3040, 4040 Pentax: 330, 430 From your local camera shop or off of ebay and see how you like it. If you're often wishing you had more control, bigger selection of add-ons, and higher deeper files sizes then sell it back and invest in an SLR type. You'll lose $50 to $75 in the process (maybe) but that ain't bad for a 3 to 6 month usage fee. O :-)
