Digital Camera

There are so many choices and we are not sure what to purchase. What would you suggest? Make, model #, etc.

What are you thinking? SLR or point and shoot?

I'm guessing point and shoot. My suggestion would be a Canon Powershot S1 IS. Jeff and Crystal bought one before they went back and it's a great camera.

Whatever you get, get a Canon.

I restate: Whatever you get, get a Canon.

Small is not necessarily better. Too small and you have a terrible time holding it without blocking all sorts of vital things (i.e. lens and flash).

If cost is not a major factor, I would recommend the larger cams. Whenever I am looking at a major purchase, 200 hundred dollars or more, I do a lot of research online. Some of my favorite review sites are:
Epinions.com, PCWorld.com, Cnet.com,
dpreview.com,steves-digicams.com

I currently am using a Fuji Finepix S7000.We have had it for 2 years now I think. It has been a great camera. Good features, nice prints etc. Our oldest son just got a Canon SD400 for 225.00 after rebate. It was one of those "black friday" deals at Office Depot. For a really compact camera I have been impressed so far but we have not gotten prints from it yet.
Hope this is helpful.
