    Going away on holiday soon and want to get a half decent digital camera. The one I have now is terrible. Would I get a half decent one for around 150-200 euro ? Could yea point me in the right direction ? I know nothing on the subject.

    for the price it would have to include a decent sized memory stick. Am I asking too much for my small budget?

    Where r u going on holidays? You could get one abroad for cheap on ur first day.

    Or you could try Cam Ireland.

    The above are just a few from cam-ireland. They accept cash on delivery afaik so no need for credit card if thats a problem. :D

    Edit: Sorted.

    Im not sure what electronic shopping is like in Prague. Something tells me it would be a little expensive.

    Ive heard good things about Cam Ireland tusky.

    Well its polaroid and there pretty common.Saying that i didnt have one myself but they are supposed to be good quality and genuine,Maybe someone who had a polaroid digital cam can vow.There are a really good make so....

    Yeh a 5mp camera is very good but there is higher.On average i'd say it would be great for pictures and if you do buy it you get 30euro off a photoprinter(hp 7450)Have one myself and it prints great pics.There normaly 120 but you'd get it for 90euro.Which also isnt bad for both of them.

    I bought a Canon S410 off 7dayshop they're based in the Channel Islands and its 4 pounds sterling to deliver to Ireland. Very happy with Canon digital, actually anyone I know who has a Canon is happy with them. The S410 is about 260 Euros so its probably a bit over budget but they're also some cheaper cameras on that site as well.
