Don't know if the place is right for this, but...


I'm looking foward to buy a new Digital Camera, in the 250€ (+/- 370 US$) range.


I don't have much knowledge with Digital Cameras, so I'd be glad to receive some help ;D



Do you have suggestions of good cameras in this price range?


I've found these prices, they seem good; what do you think?

Casio Exilim Zoom EX-Z1050 noir + Case + 1GB SD Card
200 € or +/- 300 US$

Sony CyberShot DSC-W55 + 1GB SD Card
220 € or +/- 325 US$

Sony CyberShot DSC-W85 + 1GB Memory Stick
230 € or +/- 340 US$


These are attracting me, but I don't know what to look at, roughly..


What should I look at when buying digital cameras? Wha are the important topics so ask salesmen?


Thanks in advance...

Ignore digital zoom which is the software zoom, focus on optical zoom which is the zoom of the lens.

I prefer SD cards to Memory Stick. SD is much more common and cheaper if you want to upgrade.
