Budget
roughly $500
Size
Doesn't have to be the smallest but I do like the sub-compact ones.
Features
How many megapixels will suffice for you?
6 seems good
* How important is “image quality” to you? (Rate using a scale of 1-10)
Image quality is very important. I will likely be developing standard photo sizes and maybe the odd 8X10
Do you care for manual controls?
Not sure what this means. Would appreciate some nice features but don't want to be constantly changing settings.
* What will you generally use the camera for?
Taking pictures of family.
* Will you be making big prints of your photos or not?
Not usually.
Will you be shooting a lot of indoor photos or low light photos?
Lots of indoor, yes.
Will you be shooting sports and/or action photos?
Not often.
Miscellaneous
Are there particular models you already have in mind?
Was looking at Canon Powershot SD700 and Sony Cyber-shot, whatever the newer one is.
