Advice on digital cameras please?

[Chadmama]

hi guys

My digital camera (a present a few years back) is banjaxed. So I'm asking my hubby for one for Christmas. The problem- he's clueless about cameras & I'm even worse! LOL!

What I'd like- excellent picture quality, no blurring (a problem I had with my current one!)- especially when using a 'zoom' option?, takes good pictures indoors under dark-ish light? (i.e. in restaurants/clubs?) & not too expensive (under $200 if possible?)

What features should I definately need? Are there any makes that are much better than others?

Any advice welcome & appreciated thanks

There are so many cameras out there it is difficult to say which is best, but digital is definitely the way to go. The second source link will be very helpful as it list most of the cameras out there with prices. The following information should help you know what to look for in a camera.

What gives a camera its picture quality?
The short answer is that it is mostly the skill of the photographer that produces high quality pictures. The lens and camera are very important, but the ability to set the scene, adjust the cameras settings, and hold the camera very still or use a tripod with auto or remote shutter actuation when required is what gets the great pictures.

Many of the new cameras come with only an LCD screen which is almost impossible to see in bright sun so you should try to find one that also has an optical view finder.
