go for canon. DO NOT GO FOR KODAK. canon jus leaves kodak coughing up! i have a canon cam and its jus SUPERB. ull appreciate the advice later, its best t go for canon. sony can also be a good alternative. but for pic quality, go for canon and for good looks of cam, go for sony!

@pathik: sony t70 was slightly out of my budget plus i was concerned abt optical zoom at that range so cudnt hold on 2 it...

iv purchased canon as mentioned above(Powershot A720)...hope it gives me a good response....tsa 8mp wit 6x optical zoom, 4x digital, face recognition etc....got it fr $230...wit 1gb sd....

can hv feedbacks....thanx fr respones

Enjoy~!

^^ good deal. and its the best cam. ull like it, no doubt! but its a bit bulky, so not many will appreciate it for what it does!

Hei Speedyguy - Just go for canon & no other stuff for digicam. A720IS is the best model for u. I am also using the same model this is good at present it is giving a 2gb card free - ask ur vendor.
U can try the old A710IS also - almost the same excwept 7.1 mp
good luck

The biggest disadvantage of Kodak - EasyShare 12.1-Mp is that it uses AA batteries. Don't even think of buying a camera that runs on AA batteries as you will have to but tonnes of them when on a long tour:(

Go for Canon/Nikon. They are the best.
