My budget is about £130 and i want a good zoom and about 7mp
any recommendations?
i have been looking at the kodak Z710 - 7mp and 10x optical zoom, but it is bulky and i have read some poor reviews. £129 in argos tho.
Any suggestions would be appreciated :-)
thanks

I have the Kodak V610 which I rate highly but it now costs a lot more than I paid for it and is out of your price-range. I love its video capability and the 10x lens has proved very good for nature pics (but has to be kept perfectly still). I also love it's large bright lcd screen.I'm Glad to be here... At my age I'm glad to be anywhere!!

Take a look at the Fuji F31, it has great reviews, I can be got for £114 at Tecno ( part of Jessops ) using code OOTD5,
Fantastic in low light, battery lasts for ages.0 -
I have just recently bought the Fuji S5700 and it is fab.. was £120 in Dixons? (currys?). They also had 5 packs of batteries for £5! Fab reviews too I researched it pretty well.
hope this helps.:staradmin:staradmin:staradmin:staradmin:staradmin0 -
Nikon L12. £114 from Currys. Not bad but pictures can have a bit of noise
And a review....

Fuji F31. Great camera. low noise at 800 iso, great battery, low light photography. If it can be bought within your budget you cannot go wrong.
If you have to be critical of this camera it is it's M mode. You cannot get full control. Also Green mode is not the best to use. A/S is the best mode to use and require a little bit of a learning curve to get the best out of this camera.
Look here http://www.pbase.com/arn/fuji_f30
and here http://www.pbase.com/dlcmh/fujifilm_finepix_f30_user_and_professional_reviews
Although based on the F30, it is essentially the same camera for purposes of reviews.
