Please Help
Hi I am not sure if I am posting this in the right area or not, if I am in the wrong area please let me know thanks..

I have finally decided to get a digital camera, and I have done a lot of reading on them, but I am so lost, I think I need a map!!

I have finally narrowed it down to a few I can afford, but am not sure what is the best choice, can some one help me wade through all this info and lead me in the right direction for a good digital camera?

Here are the links of the few I found...

The last three at Staples say:

For an accurate list of available items and inventory in your area, we need to find out some more information about your location.

Why did you post 3 links to the same camera?

I would get the Kodak, they're easy to use and have many features, though the Samsung looks good too.

Far and away the best camera you have listed is the Canon A460. It is also the only one Steve has reviewed. When you get down to entry level cameras they are often ignored by the better reviews.

If you want a photo printer the HP setup might be OK. For small prints you don’t need a world beating camera.

Thumbs up Cameras
Ok Ok, Sorry But Kodak sucks, their good ones are way too much. I am a huge Nikon fan because they are so easy to use and take such great Pictures. Canon's are great also.

You really do not need to go over 6M pixels, it's over kill unless your making posters.

I just puchased a new Camera to play with, It's a Nikon L11 I bought it at Target for $129.00. Great deal for this camera. It works well. Get a 1-2Gb SD memory card and your good to go. I bought this one after getting my Nikon D50 and Cool Pix 3200 stolen. Gotta Love that.

Cheers!
