The new issue of Consumer Reports deals with this subject. I haven't read it yet so I can't comment, but take a look at the ratings.

Paul, are you talking about my camera? I just did a quick google, and it can be found in the mid $300 range for a few retailers.

Do you only want it for taking pictures of your car? Or do you want to use it to take to parties or whatever and snap quick shots? Or do you want to use it to take higher grade photos with more manual control to flex your artistic muscle?
In a nutshell, point-and-shoot or a bigger camera? Do you want CF or SD memory? Consider whether you'll have the opportunity to share cards among different devices. Just don't forget to check FatWallet for the latest deals on cameras. If you really want a smoking cam for <$300 you'll need something like FW to make a deal.....most of the cameras that I consider good are >$300 even with a FW deal, except for the occasional rare great price mistake deal....  I've got a S400 and I love it. Personally I don't like anything below 4 MP, but that's just me......good luck getting it near $300....there have been deals, but it's rare. b |

the camera's msrp is 349.99, but i'm gonna get the camera and the easyshare dock both for 354(dock costs like 100 bucks by itself)...very very good deal. I'm saving about 100 bucks here.
