Get a canon. They have some of the better cameras on the market. I bought a 2mp canon elf s200 for my mom for xmas like 4 years ago and thats the one I still use and it works great. Im sure you can find one cheap now. It also does video and all that.

Don't get that HP, 3x optical zoom isn't very much and the video resolution is pathetic. I agree with MattJ, get a Canon, that's what I've got and even though it's only 3.2 MP it still takes really nice pictures and video up to 640x480, 30fps.

Good entry/midlevel camera, that's like a step above what I've got. Just make sure you buy at least a 128MB card for it if you're gonna be doing any videos.

Also make sure you turn off the digital zoom as soon as you get it.
