Hi! am thinking of doing the same for my wife but could go to about £80.
(well she does let me play golf!!)

Would appreciate any help as I know little about such things and she isn't
too technical either.

Otherwise its back to a box of chocs.

As my kids are young and didn't want them to have too expensive cameras to take on holiday, I bought two cheap (£50) cameras for my kids from Argos, the quality of the pictures was appalling. I returned them (in a sneaky way as they are excluded fom the 16 day money back guarantee). I then bought two cameras from Tesco. They were just as bad. I returned them too. My advice is go for a named brand such as Canon or Fuji as I have had nothing but dissapointment from the truly 'cheapy brands'.
