Can anyone recommend a good digital camera?

[Bud Parsley]

Mine just died, and I've never been too happy with it (it was an HP and on sale and at the time I was going for cheap rather than quality).

I'd like to know what cameras out there you might recommend. I'm looking for compact...not interested in DSLR or SLR. As far as brands go, I'm open to anything EXCEPT Olympus (personal reasons.)

Any suggestions?

Thanks ahead of time!

Bud, I've owned three different Canons over the last 5 years and they were all very good cameras. However, my newest camera is a Sony Cyber-shot 8.1 mp camera and it is awesome. I liked all of my Canons but this Sony really is far superior. Either one would do a good job for you, though.

I've only owned one digital camera that I still use to this day, and it is a Sony Cyber-Shot. While I can't compare it with other brands since I haven't owned any others, I can say that I've been very happy with it. It's been a fantastic camera and has lasted several years. I know you don't like Sony products, Bud, but I don't think you'd be disappointed in their cameras.

I went with a Canon Powershot 8.0 and am very happy. Seems like a good camera.

Thanks for your suggestions guys.
