any alternatives?

Hi all,

I'm about to buy my first digital camera and my budget is $250 (all inclusive). I will be using it for web/email purpose mostly and perhaps printing 4"x6" if at all. I'd like a compact model with 3x optical zoom and some manual controls.

I could narrow down my choice to Canon powershot A75. However, I'd like to know if there are other models (from other companies) which meet my criteria equally well.

Please let me know if there are other choices for me.

Thanks

For price, and features, the A75 is pretty much the pick of the litter. A good all around camera.

if you watch closely dell com through some sites with coupons and discounts can get the canon A95 for 261;00 shipped free
