The best camera which wins hands down in the 10-15k range according to me (I test cameras myself and don't depend on reviews), is the Canon Ixus 60. It is a 6 megapixel camera with 3x Optical Zoom and is as intelligent as cameras can get. It costs just 11k. You'll be amazed at its compactness. It comes along with a mobile phone like pouch which you can clip it on to your waist belt. And if you can stretch your budget a bit and size doesn't matter, you can go in for a Canon Powershot S3IS which is 16k. 12X zoom and big lens. If you want Image stabilization in the Ixus range (i.e. if you want compactness) you can go for the Canon IXUS 800IS.

One more reason Why I'm suggesting Canon over Sony is the memory stick is not proprietary. SD cards or MMC cards you name the make, it works on a Canon.

Great Mr.NitroNits, welcome to the Canon family.

@ NitroNits
hey nice buy, but i guess A550 lacks shutter and aerture priorty mode. well on 1st may i got myself a canon eos 350d from mumbai jj mehta.

 

[nik_for_you]

canon ixus series is best one.
sleek design, compact and best result, nice battery life.
One suggession never buy digicam with AA batteries.

Why not? I have a Canon Ixus 60 and a Sony Cybershot DSC-H2. The sony has 2 AA rechargeable batteries Ni-MH. I haven't had any problem at all. Good battery life. You cannot genaralize that AA batteries are bad. Original Sony batteries are good.

Hey guys how will u rate the brands. Canon, Nikon, Kodak, Sony, Fujiflims, Olympus, Casio, Pentax, etc.

 

[deepakchan]

Can't rate the brands. Can only rate the models. Some models maybe better in one brand. Some others in another brand.
