I want a digital camera that gives me the best point-and-click capabilities, and gives me the best quality digital photographs for around $300. I've looked at the Nikon Coolpix and some Sony and Canon camera's. Can someone that knows what their talking about give me some professional advice as to what camera would be best for me?
Best Answer: If you are really on a budget and want the best quality for the money, check out the P&S Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ28 which has more features than most pro DSLRs that require auxiliary lenses not even equal to the single initial full-range lense that comes with the FZ28. It is reviewed at:

It just came out on November 4, 2008.
It's an all-in-one 10.1 megapixel DSLR camera which includes (i) built-in image stabilization; (ii) HDTV quality video [Quicktime]; (iii) a 18x zoom [27 - 486 mm (35mm equiv.)] "Leica" lense for nature photography; (iv) up to 0.39 inch macro option; (v) up to 6400 ASA; (vi) takes up to 380 pictures per 120 min. battery charge; (vii) has a "burst speed" of 13 fps; and sells new for $270 at amazon.com.

Good luck!
- a professional advice at 300$ is quite difficult, add a few bugs and buy a D40 from Nikon, add a few more and get a D60 or a D80 that are sold to clean last stocks.. If you go for a click 'n go pocket gadget, get a Panasonic LZ8 or some Canons in the same range for 100$. Take the leftover and buy a good photoprinter.
A low budget ormid range pocket has never anything professional anyway, they are what they are with there small captur devices. Just on edvice, avoid higher pixel count then 8 mpix. They destroy the qualitty of the shot to flatten the noise once it's abit dark or shady.
If ever you can, go dslr.
- Trust me on this one. Canon SD880 IS is the best possible choice for point and click. Not only does it used a latest technology from Canon -DiGiC 4 Chip, which also used by other professional high-end cameras, but also allows you to record 2 sizes of videos with zoom-in-out functions during recording. It also has some of the newest technology such as face detection as well as face detection timer. There are just too many features that on this small little thing, my opinion: get this point n shoot or get a professional one. I bought one of these two weeks ago. After reviewing all the features and the techologies, my uncle asked me to purchase one for him, too.
You can purchase it on eBay for $260 free shipping.
The follow two reviews are from professionals, I think they should help you:

P.S. You can also go to cnet.com and view the videos reviews on other cameras before making your decision. :-)
Best Luck,
- I would go with the Canon Powershot SD880 IS because it's high-res (10 mp), 4x optical zoom with image stabilization. You'll want to add at least a 4gb SD memory card. Price for both is under $300 ...
Try Amazon's Canon Powershot Store for the best prices:

- Maybe the Canon PowerShot SX10 IS?
