[LM_NET] TARGET: Choosing a digital camera

[Kelly Jo Lasher <kjtomlin@EDEN.RUTGERS.EDU>]

Hello all,
  I'm trying to make the best use of monies I won in a grant (in my first
year; yes, I'm excited!).  I checked through the archives, but didn't
see anything particularly helpful on this topic from the past year, at
least not with my particular circumstances.  I'd like to purchase a
point and shoot digital camera for between $100-200.  What I'd like to
hear from you are specific brands and models that work well, either in
school or personal use.  Of course, I'm looking to get the most bang for
our buck, but if there are particular features that you feel make the
camera you use better than others, I'd love to hear it.

  One limitation: I do NOT want to purchase a camera that uses a 3.5 disk
for storage, since most of the computers in our library do not have that
drive.

  Anything at all you can give me on this would be appreciated.  Please
respond to me - I'll compile the information and post a HIT.

Thanks,
Kelly
