- what will you be taking pictures of
- is size of quality more important

from that shop

Hi,
I have a friend coming home from USA soon and I want to get a digital camera which will be future proof for the foreseeable future. In other words I want to buy a camera with whatever features I would need for everyday use and maybe a little bit better.
-good zoom
- good flash
- fairly easy to use
- USB/firewire

Don't mind spending a bit extra.
Any suggestions appreciated.

Q: what is SLR?

SLR = Single lens reflex

It is what the pro camera men use. And generally are the most expensive, Ranging from about €400 to well over the price of a car. I myself have used equipment in that price range. A good pro camera would set you back about €1500.
