Suggestions For Finding A Digital Camera?

MxM<3

I'm looking for a digital camera that would be good for me.
I'm only 16 years old, and I'm not looking for a professional camera... just something to take pictures on.
Taking pictures is probably the thing that I do most often, so this is very important to me.
I would like a camera that is:
1. Relatively cheap, under $200.
2. Good looking, and preferably small.
3. Takes good quality pictures, what is the point of having a digital camera if all of the pictures are going to be pixelated or deformed?
4. Long battery life, and sturdy. I don't want this camera to break after 2 months of use.

Any suggestions?
And also, where can I find the camera that you are recommending?

THANK YOU SO MUCH! :)

Answer
I recommend something from Canon. You can get older models of the Canon IXUS, which are all pretty good! They produce decent, true colour images and are great!

One thing I have to warn though... NEVER BUY OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERAS. I currently own one, I hate it, I regret getting it(I picked it and my dad got it)and I am stuck with it. They produce the CRAPPIEST images even though mine is one of the latest models(well maybe like 5th or 6th latest),and it's just plain HORRIBLE. I'd never trust Olympus again. It adds a lot of noise to pictures. Especially in low light

Anyways,also get a camera that has rechargeable batteries. Like not those batteries you buy each time, the thin ones then you just have to put in a charger then put it back.

Good luck

What do you think about the Canon Powershot SD600 Digital Camera?

I'm going to get a new camera (old one's not working) and I want a really good one that I'll get my money's worth out of and be able to take great shots, even videos, just for everyday things as well as events. I found out about this one and reviews made it sound great, but I'm just getting backup opinions before I decide to buy it. I even found a site to get it for $160 instead of $400. So if you could rate it 1-10 and say why, or just give comments, that'd be great.

Canon's SD models are excellent ultra compact cameras, and the SD600 was a very popular model about...1 1/2 years ago.

It's a very good little camera but, you might also want to consider a newer model. Maybe the SD1000, which features the latest Digic III processor (which means the camera will be faster and image quality is better). It also has a higher res. LCD and other improved features.
You would need to buy a high speed SD card for optimum camera performance.
The camera is available for just over US$200 (online)...which is not much extra to pay for newer technology.

But, if you are not prepared to pay extra, then the SD600 is a fine little camera. Just make sure you buy a fast SD card (Sandisk Ultra II or the faster, Extreme III). 1-2GB is a good minimum, which will provide plenty of storage for photos/videos. Make sure your photo quality is set to...Superfine/Large..and your movies, 640x480 at 30fps.

good luck...
