I need a camera for Uni, any advice?
I'm entering my second year of a Multimedia Graphics course at uni which contains a bit of photography. I'm looking for a camera to suit my needs.
Budget
Around £60-£100.
Size
As long as it's not huge i don't really mind.
How many megapixels will suffice for you?
Around about 6
What optical zoom will you need?
Standard
How important is “image quality” to you? (Rate using a scale of 1-10)
9
Do you care for manual controls?
Yes (I think, read below).
General Usage
What will you generally use the camera for?
Still shots & the occasional actionshot
Will you be making big prints of your photos or not?
Not prints but will be manipulating using software such as Photoshop so a large image would be usefull.
Will you be shooting a lot of indoor photos or low light photos?
Yes
Will you be shooting sports and/or action photos?
Occasionaly
Are there particular brands you like or hate?
No
Are there particular models you already have in mind?
No
I'd prefer a camera with a viewfinder so i don't have to rely on an LCD screen (saves on the batteries). Being able to adjust the apperture and f-stop would be nice but not absolutely vital.
Thanks for any help.

The A630 is nice, and is just under $200 limit. I've recommended that one to 2 co-workers and both loved it. (I had the discontinued A620 - which cost $100 more when new - at the time.)
