Digital camera advice - Please!?!

bcopie

Hi,

I am looking to buy a digital camera approx £150 or less. It needs to be:

Good at close ups
Have a docking station.

Previously I have had a couple of casio exilim cameras and they have been adequate but not great. Their great advantage being a docking station. I have searched many online review websites as well as Amazon but am finding it slow going so any advice is welcome.

I have looked at the casio ex-s770 but reviews say that the macro pictures are blurry - if anyone knows otherwise please let me know - as this would have been top of my list.

Thanks in advance.

Panasonic FX33 or Canon Ixos 75 seem to get the nod in the reviews and would be ideal choices and both just under budget.

Don't know about docking stations though.

This is an interesting site for digital cameras

For close up (macro) you will need a tripod and even illumination and a focus ability of about 10mm Why do you want a docking station as a priority?
