Not for myself, I've already got my next DSLR picked out... LOL! It's a birthday present for my mom. She has the WORST luck with cameras and every one seems to be either hard to use or takes horrible photos.

I want a point and shoot that easily takes crisp/focused photos. Nothing to expensive and no elaborate features really needed, it's just for general type stuff!

TIA!!!
 
I love my Nikon Coolpix, and there's a similar model for Canon's (Powershot I think?). Any of those would probably be great.
 
We bought Benjamin a Canon Powershot. It takes GREAT pictures and you can use it in manual to a limited degree too. I use it when I don't want to take my Rebel.
 
I've been looking at the Powershots and they seem to get the best/most consistent reviews. I would like to stay with a brand that I'm familiar with (Canon, Nikon) because I think part of the problem is that she's had odd brands in the past.
 
Another vote for the Canon Powershot line, I had a S2IS before upgrading to my XTi and it was a great little camera. I paid about $350 for it at the time, but they have cheaper models too starting around $150 I think.
 
DH got a Nikon CoolPix last year around Christmas, it's truly a pocket camera. It's been awesome, we use it a lot, love having it when I don't feel like dealing with the big camera. It's super easy to use, the pictures and videos have been :thumbup:
 
Sony Cybershot...I have had like 4 of them and have LOVED them all! DD {16} acquired the one I bought in Kuwait and LOVES it....it was like $195 {probably cheaper now}....I also have the H10 but it was like $300 PLOVE it because it takes GREAT night pics of the kids sleeping without a terrible flash going off!
