Which camera should I buy:
I would like a recomendation in the $100-200 range and the $200-300.
We do a lot of hiking so the smaller the better and a long battery life would be nice. Something that can handle low light at dusk or dawn when I am out on the trail would be nice. Weatherproofing might be nice, but not importants. I do not need a video camera, just stills. I would like it to have a slot for adition memory. An optical zoom of at least 3 or 4 would be nice. I do not need a huge LCD screen either.
Right now I have an HP715. Not a bad camera, but it eats through batteries, has trouble with low light situations, and it is hard to take super close ups.
