Oops, correction...I see that it says "free shipping; not available in stores". So I guess this wouldn't be available for store pickup. Guess I'm getting it from Amazon! FYI, Bob

FYI, Circut City has the Cannon A570 IS on sale today only (Tuesday) for $149, and you can get a free Epson R280 printer with it (after rebate)! The link to the deal is on the home page, in the big rotating window of ads at the top. So, I'm torn. I don't need the printer, and this doesn't include the 2GB SD card or the free calendar like Amazon. On the other hand, I could order it and pick it up today or tomorrow, instead of waiting for Amazon shipping. Argh! Anyway, wanted to pass it on! Bob

Whew! I just finished reading all the posts in this thread, and I'm SO glad I discovered it! Thanks to everyone for the helpful info, links and opinions. All the discussion has been great, but I'm still stumped as to which is the best camera for the money from the deals below (BF and currently on Amazon): Best Buy: Kodak C613 EasyShare 6MP & 5.6" Picture Frame $99.99 Circuit City: Fujifilm FinePix A900 9.0MP $129.99 Circuit City: Kodak EasyShare C633 6.2MP & Printer Dock $129.99 Circuit City: Sony Cyber-shot DSC-S700 7.2 MP $99.99 CompUSA: Fujifilm F480 8.2MP $139.99 CompUSA: Fujifilm Z10 7MP $149.99 CompUSA: HP Photosmart R742 7MP $129.99 CompUSA: Nikon L14 6MP (Blue or Pink) $129.99 Sears: Canon Powershot 7.1MP (model?) with 4x Optical Zoom $139.99 And available at Amazon: Canon PowerShot A560 7.1MP 4x Optical Zoom $129.19 Canon PowerShot A570IS 7.1MP 4x Optical Zoom $154.74 Our "family camera" that we've had for a few years, a 4 MP Kodak EasyShare, just bit the dust, and our budget is pretty tight, so I'm looking for a good all-around camera that's easy enough for my 11yo. to use; and that takes good pictures both indoors and outside without too much shutter lag. Our biggest frustrations to date have been poor/blurry pictures in lower lighting conditions and the lag between when you push the button and the camera actually takes the picture. I'd be incredibly grateful for any guidance or advice on the list above. Despite its flaws, our old camera has given us a lot of enjoyment over the years, and we're looking forward to a new one. Thanks! :) Bob New Hampshire
