The best camera for the money is the olympus 3000. Aside from 3.34 megapixel it also does video. Its going for under $500.00 Forget about ebay for a camera they are holding value to much. Just get a new one with a warrentee. Go with olympus. I have done days of research on digital camera`s and consistanly found the olympus 3000 to be by far the best for under $700.00. And best part is ist only $475.00 here on long island. Oh and one more thing stay away from the factory refurbished models. If you want a pic sample just send me a email with request but you better have a good modem connection.
