Suggestions?
I purchased an Olympus FE-100 and now I'm wondering if I made a good choice.
I want something that shoots quickly with short recharge time, reduces redeye effectively, and takes good pictures.
Anybody? I think the Olympus is probably a better choice than the Fuji Finepix 345.
What say you?
OK, I have Fuji sidebars on my post.
Freak.
I like what these people say alot

Thanks Husker. Still, those reviews tend to be for higher end stuff. I'm looking for two cameras for my girls and want quality without spending a fortune.
Canon - has the picture taking quality
I love the Canon Elph's, but man are they expensive.
Canon A520 4.0MP $175 at Costco
I'll check it out. Thank you sir!
this thing about Costco is if you are unhappy return it anytime even thought I never have

I'm going there tomorrow anyway, so I'll check it out.
I have a beef with them though. I bought this laptop and they screwed up the $50 rebate. Submitted it online, then they said they needed more info, so I snail mailed it to them, and they lost it.
I love Costco, but I hate rebate fiascos.
well I'm thinking about getting the Rebel XT and it has $245 in rebates - OUCH
OK, I haven't been able to find a single bad review of the A520. Thanks Husker, that's what I'll go with.
Now, I'm wondering about the Olympus FE-100 that I already purchased (and wrapped). Guess I'll just go with it and if she doesn't like it, she can exchange it for one like her sister's.
I'm just reading along looking for answers myself. I want a little pocket sized camera.
I've about decided on a Pentax Optio WPi just for its waterproof/dustproof credentials. When the weather is nasty I don't want to take my good camera outdoors and taking it underwater is absolutely out of the question.
It doesn't have an optical viewfinder though and I know that will make me insane at least for a bit.
Canon Powershot A85 is another good recommendation, in my opinion.
I have the A75, which is "only" 3.2mp, and i have no complaints with it. I've used the A85, and it's faster, more mp, and it's just as sexy.
