Over the last couple of years Nikon has been losing market share to other manufacturers, but that negative sales trend may be due to change. Nikon's R&D folks have introduced two very exciting new digital cameras (the Coolpix 8700 and the D70 digital SLR) that are likely to put Nikon firmly back in...

Pros
Stylish, good quality photos, large memory capacity.

Let me state right away that I am not a camera professional or claim to be a techno guru. Far from it, I am a new mom who wanted to take loads of photos and share with family on the web.

Pros
Excellent optics for low price and compact size, uses 2 AA batteries, features, 4x zoom
Cons
Flash creates shadow in corner in Macro mode and overexposes unless you use ISO50/f8
Recommended it?
Yes
A replacement for the last year's Canon A75, the 3.2-Megapixel Canon PowerShot A510 is currently available at rather low prices. I got mine for $161 after coupons including taxes and shipping at Dell. I also got the 4-Megapixel A520 to see the difference for only $20 more. Your mileage may vary...
