hmm.. under $150. Fujifilm has a couple under 150 but i've heard both good and bad things about them.

Nikon has some too i believe.

Stay away from those no-name brands.

i got a panasonic 3.2 not too long ago for like 200 or so, should be less now days, and its pretty nice
would like a 5 or larger though.

its pretty hard to find a good digicam for under 150, thats where alot of the no-name brands that claim 6MP and stuff. i think if you could spend a little more,

Canon A400, Bought my parents that 2.2x optical zoom, 3.2MP

Pentax Optio 30, Very EASY camera to use, 3x optical zoom, 3.2MP

Kodak EasyShare, Very Very simple camera, not many extra features, basic point and shoot, 3x optical zoom, 3.2MP

notice that all the cameras ive posted have an OPTICAL zoom, which is very important, try and stay away from the cameras that only have a digital zoom(ie sony p41, its a cheap 4MP, but no optical zoom).

interesting picks. i'm also looking for a budget digital camera. is there a camera that doesn't suck at taking action shots? my last digi-cam was the fujifilm. they were cheap and great for the price... but the slightest movement would cause alot of blur which pissed me off to no end.

I've had about 5 Kodak's and never had any problem with them. Just like WhiteNissan said get one with optical zoom.
