Olympus C4000

Canon Powershot A70
A very good, affordable 3 MP camera. Costs around $300. Very good on battery
and works on AA. Good pictures.
Nikon Coolpix 3200
Small, handy camera. Outside pictures are good but inside ones are of poor
quality. I think flash is the culprit. Can use AA but hogs them in minutes.
Avoid buying this.
