[Rob_]

My Ricoh R6 has bit the dust so im after a replacement

Only real needs are:

£150ish
3 x optical zoom or higher
8meg pixels or higher

Thats about it really, whats the current best in that price range? Thanks folks

Panasonic Lumix.

Second-hand - mint condition - Canon G7 is an awesome choice (maybe the G9 if you can get one)

Go to http://www.steves-digicams.com/ always helped me. If your looking for a compact digital then Canon or Casio IMO (had experience of both and are awesome) dont be ruled too much by the whole megapixel trend because you actually dont need anymore then about 4mp tbh! i do regualar A3 photos off an old Canon 2mp compact digital and the results are awesome
