I will be buying a digital camera with in this week so i was wondering if someone can help me pick one out. i have no more than $250 to spend and i want somewhere in the 3 megapixel range. i have looked on ebay and i see some i want:

toshiba pdr-3300, but i gave up on this one since the warranty does not apply to US.

and so i came down to an Olympus D-560Z which is $225

i was wondering from experience would any one recommend this brand? i know they are well known but i just want to make sure. (i.e if buying a cd player, stick with alpine, clarion. etc)

also what other brands i should look for in my price range? (i.e minoltas are way too much, but are there other comparable brands?)


thanks for any advices.

Just about all digital cameras are reliable and fairly bulletproof. The biggest difference that has struck me from one brand to another is ease of use. In that regard I highly recommend Kodak. I would also recommend going with 4 megapixel if at all possible.
