I'm after a cheapish (£50 mark) for SWMBO. She is currently on a uni course and needs to take photos for evidence of her work. The camera doesn't need to be full of features, just something quick and easy to use and quite small so once the course has finished she can keep it in here handbag/car.

I guess she needs

* an optical zoom

* quick startup and ready to take pictures (course is child related so needs to be able to catch spur of the moment shots

* decent sized LCD screen

* SD card slot

She is currently using our Canon Powershot xxx which does what she needs although she keeps forgeting it and leaving it at work and I don't want our current camera to get stolen or damaged.

Ideas/deals welcome

Nice looking camera. I have a feeling it will sell for more than £50 though, althoug I could buy it for myself and leave the canon with SWMBO

Well I was hoping the auction would go for around £70 ish. You can get some pretty good point n shoots these days for £50 though

I have got the German version of this one (a Rollei, Samsung bought them out) from Ebuyer, and it's fine for the wife as a point n shoot

damn you :confused:, i quite fancy a camera I can tinker with and I've always wanted a wide lens, your hoping for £70, maybe I'll bid on your camera for me instead.

What about this offering from Aldi? I know it'sabit more than £50 but has some good features, and comes with all accessories you'll need.
