Best Answer: I own and recommend the Canon Rebel XS at 10.1mp it's an SLR. It can be had, at at least site for $499 The photos are superb and so is the build. It's easy to learn (if you read the book) and operate. Here's a few shots from my XS http://www.flickr.com/photos/jimsphotostuff - Jim A
If you don't mind video features I would suggest Digital SLR camera which take far better picture than point & shoot camera.Canon Rebel XS is a good choice for under $500 http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001E283UC?ie=UTF8&tag=computer0bd-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B001E283UC but if you want one that take video I would suggest Sony Cybershot DSC-HX1 9.1MP with 20x Optical Zoom with Super Steady Shot Image Stabilization and 3.0 Inch LCD.Good macro shot and take HD video. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001U3ZUWO?ie=UTF8&tag=computer0bd-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B001U3ZUWO or another good choice is Canon SX20is or Panasonic FZ35 http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fs%3Fie%3DUTF8%26redirect%3Dtrue%26ref%255F%3Dsr%255Fnr%255Fp%255Fn%255Ffeature%255Fthree%255Fbr%255F5%26bbn%3D330405011%26qid%3D1257654448%26rnid%3D401881011%26rh%3Dn%253A502394%252Cn%253A281052%252Cn%253A330405011%252Cp%255Fn%255Ffeature%255Fthree%255Fbrowse-bin%253A401887011&tag=computer0bd-20&linkCode=ur2&camp=1789&creative=390957 - ArC
