I've read that the Casio 2000UX is the best bang for the buck, but I was only looking for the ones that take mini-movies (great for action footage), I think it is around $500US or will be soon, I would have prefered the Olympus 2020Z since I figured it might be a little more of a real camera and less of a toy, as well it seems to take better night pictures, it was $600, but they've stopped making it and the replacement 3000Z is $800 and complete overkill on resolution. The Sony DSC-F55 is another contender, or Mavica 83. They should all be around $500.

If you don't want the video I'd look at Canon S10, Kodak 280, they should be under $500

The floppy disks don't hold many hi-res pictures, you would be carrying around a few of them, I'm definitely going for at least a 16MB card with USB download.

I have the Sony Mavica, also. It does use the floppy discs and is easy to use. Very good pics. You can now get them at Sam's and I have been told Wal-Mart, but have not checked the latter out.

 

Thanks for the info guys. I bought a Sony DSC-S30 cyber-shot. It uses memory sticks so it's alot smaller than the one's that use floppy's. So far I love it.

 

I just saw the 30 today in a add, And was gona tell yea. But you beat me to it.

They are nice huu? When you get some more cash get the 64 meg stick. I also saw a 2gig stick on the display but nobody could confirm it exists. Probably only in Japan.

Did you notice you can zoom in on a pic in playback? Also looks like it will mount on a helmet reel nice.

Good ridding MPegs comin.

Let's suck up some bandwith!!!yehaa.

 

So when someone takes some pics send them to blaster20099@hotmail.com

What's wrong with the Sony? I really like mine.
