    Since you're already burning a hole, might as well just make it alot bigger and go for the D70s/350D. *mrgreen*

    Help me buy my next camera :)

    Because my camera was ruined when I fell into the Potomac River during Tropical Storm Ernesto, and because I use my camera for both recreational photography and hardware reviews, I need a replacement very soon.

    I have a 12% coupon and a $100 gift card for Best Buy. The promotional sale ends on 9/4, and will be buying a new camera before it ends; either in-store or online.

    http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?id=cat04001&type=category

    Please give me your suggestions! One request: nothing too small or very large, and nothing too expensive (over $250). My previous camera had a 512MB xD Card that still works, so it would be a plus to still be able to use it, but not a major factor. The 8.0MP Olympus SP-350 seems to be a good replacement, but let's see what you guys can find! Thanks! :arp:

    EDIT:

    Nobody had any suggestions, so I went with the Canon S3 IS.

    How much are you willing to spend?

    Do you want portability or performance?

    Unless you are very rich, don't go the DSLR route just yet. I've seen a lot of people getting DSLR because of sudden urge, maybe because of work, maybe because of studies. But until you are really sure about taking photography as a hobby, get a decent prosumer camera first, learn all the basics about photography, then only jump to DSLR when you are financially and mentally prepared. DSLR is not a cheap investment, in fact it's not even an investment.

    Digital Single Lens Reflex. In layman's words, camera which allows you to change lens.
