i have a bridge one,
the kodak easyshare z700, i think, or the z 710, more like it,
its fab,
this is a pic i took on holiday last year,
it has recently won several prizes,
i am very proud of it, it does need a touch of cropping to make it perfect though,

here it is

Hi all, I'm after a bit of advice about cameras (surprise, surprise on this thread!).
I currently use a Kodak Digital, it's slow between photos & I often miss things that I'd like piccies of & I've felt that the low light setting is not a lot of good, I don't think I've ever had a decent night photo, indoor or out.

I'm thinking of upgrading to a digital SLR & would like some opinions. I don't want to go mad with the price,as i don't like to be to 'precious' about things & just want one I can throw in a bag, would like something fairly quick & something as automatic as possible as I probably won't be very good (or will forget) to change light settings etc. Not to many modes (I never remember to use half the ones on the camera I have now).

Any advice please (ps hubby said he'd put half towards the cost as my birthday pressie)

oh & preferably one that uses an SD memory card please!

Have a look at the Olympus E-420 with 14-42mm ginap
or maybe the or maybe the Nikon D40 or D60

[ginap.123]

oh shady, I think that Olympus one is one that I've been looking at, but all the specs on them just confuse me. Will go off and look again.

Thanks for that

[ginap.123]

Have ordered the Olympus one, thanks Shady, it was nice to have confirmation that it was worth getting as I was getting confused with all the detail etc. I think what had drawn me to this one is that the advertise it as being 'simple', a bit like me! The old brain can't cope with to much lately!
