Hello everyone

I'm looking for a good digital camera. I just want to use it for taking basic photos and videos in party/functions.

I'm not a pro in this field so don't know much about the features. So please suggest a good camera which can fulfill my requirements.

The quality should be excellent. I have no idea how much do these cameras cost, so please mention the prices as well.

Thanks in advance.

How much are you willing to spend?
Once can get a good digicam from Rs.5K to Rs.5 lakhs.

If you are willing to spend around 10K max, then get Canon A480.
If till Rs.15K, go with Canon SX200 IS or Canon A1000IS.

Thanks for the suggestions. Yes, I can go upto 20K if required.

Stick with any of the above two & spend the rest of the amount on high capacity memory card along-with rechargeable batteries & charger.

Take a look at Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ7 / ZS3 too.

if you want compact sized then go for SX200 IS,
for Zoom go for Panasonic FZ-38,

Thanks guys. I have purchased Canon A1100 IS and its good.

Congrats.
I'm glad you liked it.
