Cheap digital camera

Options
I want a digital camera ideally priced around £50-£150.
Best quality available obviously ! But I want it to look like a traditional camera and not the rectangle boxes that are on the market now.

Might be able to push it to £200 if there was one with video facility on it.
And finally, would like it with memory card supplied.

If anyone has bought a camera recently or can recommend a camera I'd be very grateful to hear from you.

    Hi

    Im in the same boat and it's soooooooo hard, there are sooo many cameras out there!

    I'm thinking of getting the Canon Powershot A95 which has lots of good reviews but not sure if it's worth £198......

    I just want something with a good flash and zoom to help take good indoor shots.

    good luck!

    I ordered this one and got a free case with it. Found it to be very good and easy to use.

    Bought this memory card too seemed to be the cheapest around for a 512.

    I finally made my mind up... and yes...I've gone for the Kodak camera FB recommended.

    I couldn't be rrrrrrrsed going through endless camera reviews, anyway, the recommendations for this were quite good anyway.

    So, I'll take your word for it.
    Will let you know how I get on.
    Thanks again !

    Got the camera today, small and compact.

    Excellent piece of kit !!

    Really love it. very simple to use, easy to figure out what does what.
    Didn't need to read the instructions it was that easy.
    Does small movies as well, the kids had a laugh filming each other.
    Didn't get any camera bag with mine. Thought they might put a small cloth bag or something in there.

    Great recomendation !!

    Thanks a lot Fatboyonadiet !!
