for amateur and beginner, Fuji Z2800 is good. try to get one under 500 CND.

you needn't advanced control, you need just colorful picture.

canon powershot G2 is a good choice. kind of expensive though, $1,299+tax. but this is a really good camera. good for advanced amateur or professional beginners. very easy to control and have all the tools you need to take a professinoal level photo. it gives you a good hand feeling as well. when it comes to digicam, i don't want it to be too small.

if u have a optical camera, u can choose camrecorder. JVC is cheaper but not good enough. JVC have more models. SONY is expensive, also no good resolution, but high quality. Panasonic a little cheaper but not too many models u can choose.

For digital camera, the only advantage is u do not need films, i think. a good one also cost more than $500. For family use, u should buy a optical camera.
