My "old" (1.5 years) one died. I will not turn on, the red light just flashes. It is a Casio QV40 4.0 megapix. I bought it for about $225 at KMart. I liked it very much because it's compact, took great pics and was inexpensive.

I'm now looking for a replacement. Any suggestions? Also, does anyone know if Casio's are prone to this problem? I checked the web and didn't find anything in particular, but I did see the same model being sold on eBay for "spare parts" as they did'nt work either.

I welcome suggestions

I have been working with my Canon digital Rebel,... pretty good camera,... Canon has some new ones,... and they look promising. Good luck!

Canon is my fave.

Chris... i was thinking about getting a canon rebel...

I'd like a digital SLR, but they are out of my price range. I dont mind it not being digital as long as I get to use different lenses, etc...

This would be a great help for anyone looking to buuy a camera

i just bought one of these...canon sd400 5mp....it has large 2" lcd for viewing....i really like it so far.

i wanted a small digi camera....and this one fits the bill.
this camera is easy to use, has a nice menu, and has some nice features as well.
cost w/ 256MB card, and card reader was $400.

I was thinking about getting the canon powershot S2

Anyone have any thoughts/opinions?
