QUICK! What digital camera to buy?

[badmouse]

It's to take pix of costumes for inventory for a theater company, they rent them out so will be going on web.

Budget as low as possible, under 200 -250 max, I guess.

edit: There are about 400 - 800 costume pieces per show, doing one show at a time. Tripod, lighting, cramped spaces. Speed/ease of use/reliability is important. Detail matters, but aren't most cameras pretty good with detail these days?

EZ to clean, since these costumes are in storage w/dust etc all over the place.

It was just to incite a canon fanboi riot.
