If you can source one (probably from the 'net) Fuji S6500fd.

Don't think you'll get more versatile for the money.

(I'm biased though as I've got one lol)

Not really sure open to offers, it was about 200 when it was bought but its just sat in the box as i have a little sony that goes everywhere

Canon A720 IS?

By the time you buy memory, bag etc it'll come close to your budget...
Has 6x zoom, with an average wide end and moderate long end. The IS may also come in handy.

Only thing that puts me off is the batteries but get a decent set of re-chargables and it'll be fine.

the panasonic tz3 is sweet if you want big zoom in a smallish camera

 

[benm172]

anymore recommendations cheers for the advice so far guys

if you want a small point and shoot then canon ixus 75 for £129 on amazon or you could probably pick up a canon 10d or 350d second hand

Got my rents this for X-mass, the macro mode amazed me, the lay out is also good but my 4 year old Sony DSC-P100 destroys it in auto using the flash, the 75 just blows everything out. I'd deffo recommend an IXUS further up the food chain though but then your getting closer to the G7/G9 prices...

I've got one of these bad boys as well. Funnily enough, I purchased it after reading a review on ClioSport.

Excellent entry level DSLR.

You mean excellent Bridge camera

But yes, it is almost as good as a DSLR, especially at the price they're going for!
