Hi,

I wanna buy a digicam for my lil sister and my budget is around 15k.

I tried searching for options on the net but got really confused.

So far I've sort of shortlisted Nikon S640 and Sony Cybershot T90.

My requirements are:

Atleast 12 MP, 4X optical zoom, good photo quality, ease of use.

Can u guys please suggest some gud options?

I'd prefer a Sony, Nikon or Cannon.

Thanks for your reply. But this camera is just 9 MP. Also it doesnt have rechargeable batteries, which is a big no-no. Any other suggestions. I can stretch my budget to 18k.

Also, looks are important since my sister will be using it. She wants a sleek looking camera which can be carried aroung in her purse.

I'm really tempted to buy the Sony T90 just for it looks alone....

then Panasonic TZ7. Check it out !
Or get one from Canon IXUS Series, any model that fits on your budget. But TZ7 is highly recommended !

go for SX120 IS....better than Nikon S640 and Sony Cybershot T90..

mega pixels does not make much difference....
