New Digital Cameras Images
What are the best digital cameras available at the moment for taking good quality family and holiday snaps ?
I am looking for a new camera to replace my 7 year old Fujifilm MX-1200. I have not kept up to date with changes in technology and so am pretty lost with where to start looking for a replacement. The camera is mainly for taking photos socially and am willing to pay up to 150pounds/300dollars. My main preferences are good quality images and compact size, extra features such as anti-shake programming would also be nice.
Many thanks for any help or advice.
Please look at the new Canon Powershot SD850-IS. This is a very versatile camera that will not get in your way as you travel. It has a nice workable zoom range that will take you from broad scenics to decent telephoto views. Look at some sample images from the reviews on the SD700-IS to get the idea what this lens will cover. It has image stabilization, which really works. It is small enough to fit into a shirt pocket. It has a rechargeable battery that is good for 200-250 shots, depending on how much zooming and viewing you do or on how many shots use the flash. A spare battery is 1¾”x1¼”x¼” and the charger is barely twice that size, so carrying the spare is easy and packing the charger is easy. It has an optical viewfinder which can be useful when the sun is too bright to see the image on your LCD monitor. I could go on, but you can read some reviews and see what the pro’s say.

Click on “Read Owner Opinions,” which are mini-reviews by buyers. You can also read the full review on the SD700-IS by clicking on that option.
The upgrades for the SD850-IS are:
Canon Digic III image processor instead of Digic II
8 MP instead of 6 MP
Maximum ISO 1600 instead of ISO 800
Accepts up to 4 GB memory card instead of 2 GB
LCD monitor has better image
Face detection
I listed these in the order of importance, in my opinion. The first two are the ones that really count the most and the rest are just gravy.
