What are you looking for? Point & Shoot? Digital SLR?

TomR has a Canon G9......... the pics he has posted look awesome.

I have a Canon S5 IS......... I still have to learn how to use it properly.

Cheers,

If you can wait a little longer Nikon will be releasing the D90 which means you should be able to get a brand new D80 with lens kit for around $800. Can't do much better than that.
