I like using the Canons. This is because they have remote capture which means I can record from my computer. Also, They were one of the first companies to have a HD camera produced. I currently have the Canon Powershot TX1 and it works like a charm! Its just the only HD camera that is incompatible in Remote Capture. I have also gone with JVC in the past, they were good but then canon developed a HD Camera.

I’m happy with my Samsung L110. It’s compact and the quality is decent. Though I might not be enough of a photo geek to have too high expectations.
Originally I wanted to go for a 10 megapixel model, but sadly the quality in for compact digital cameras gets notably worse with higher megapixels. 8.2 megapixels should be sufficient for quite some time though.
So far I’ve loved it and I think it will be a long time till I’m going to feel the need to replace it :)

I’m also not an expert in the subject, but I always hear positive comments about Cannon, so I’m looking foward to buy one, something cheap and for casual use, something arround 200 dlls.

I bought a Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ3 earlier this year, this is my fifth digital camera, and I am blown away by the quality of the pictures it takes for a small point and shoot. It has a wonderful 10X Leica zoom lens and a bright 3″ LCD monitor. It is a bit larger and heavier than some of the small point and shoots but still fits in a pocket nicely. Takes pretty good videos, too. It has been superseded by the TZ-5 which has a few improved features and is what I would buy if looking for a camera now.

Your problem may be no more than how you are holding the camera. Try to make your body the tripod (if you are using the real thing) by holding your arms next to your body as tightly as possible. Stand so you don’t rock on your feet/legs. If you are using a camera that has the ability to look through the viewfinder and see the monitor, look through the viewfinder and jam that baby right up to your face as tightly as possible.
Or you could just drop the dollars for a digital SLR and use a tripod, as I did.

I just bought a Kodak M863 last week. It’s slim and compact. I am still learning all the functions because there are so many. I particularly like the panoramic function, which automatically stitches together three photos with ease and seamlessly. Once you take the first picture, it shows the edge of that picture allowing you to line it up for the next one. It doesn’t have to be perfect though. There are numerous preset settings to choose from, including for low light, close up, motion pictures, scenery, light in front or behind the subject and many more. Pictures are sharp and there is a “Blur Warning” which tells you if the picture is good enough quality for a print. It uses SDHC and has HD capabilities. The video isn’t all that great but I bought it for stills, not video.
I am very pleased with this camera and the cost was only $100 (With a $30 instant rebate).
