1. Don't poke fun at me on this.
2. It must be pink.
3. Must not cost over $200.
4. Links would be appreciated.

Thank you 🙂

Update: Thank you for the suggestions. However I've stumbled across a forgotten $50 newegg giftcard so I've narrowed it down between these two

Tell me what you guys think would be the best of the 2 and why.

Final update: I'm going with the SD1200, thanks guys.
 
Canon PowerShot A1100 IS Pink $200

Nikon CoolPix L18 Ruby Red 8.0 MP $100

Nikon CoolPix S220 Magenta 10.0 MP $150

Quick simple Newegg search yields these results. You might or might not be able to find it for cheaper elsewhere via Google searches and at places like Pricewatch. I almost always use Newegg to look at a product before seeing if it's cheaper elsewhere, especially since tax is charged in certain places like New Jersey and California for Newegg. Not that I live in either states, just that everyone's situation differs.

***EDIT

Good site twistedlogic. I think pink is a garish color for a camera but to each his own...

Fixed that for ya, don't thank me, it's what I do! 🙂

Maybe Nikon should get some of their DSLR people over to the digicam dept.

Fixed for all of ya. Seriously, for someone whose requirement is pink, I might suggest something from Toys'R'Us.

For some reason, I don't think my g/f would like a Toys'R'Us camera, but thank you for your input. :roll:


Moving along now, I've got a $50 gift card for newegg that I didn't remember I had, so I'm thinking it's between these 2 cameras.

Tell me what you guys think would be the best of the 2 and why.

The SD1200 has a much nicer, crisper LCD.

Probably...

I dunno, not trying to be partial to pentax at all...but 84 flat for a pink cam seems much cheaper than any 50 dollar IR applied to those cams 😛

Then I have a hunch your GF wont be pixel-peeping to see if one has lower noise at high ISO or a meter less prone to blowing highlights. :roll:

You might as well get her one that she thinks looks cuter.
 
Run down to your local Wal-Mart and see if they still have the SD1100IS in stock. The one near me is closing them out and you can pick one up in silver for $129 and the color versions are $119

Why do you feel the need to come in here and threadcrap? She wants a pink camera, what's your big deal with that? Yes, we're not completely concerned with all of your photo-techno mumbo-jumbo, but that doesn't mean I just want to get her a complete P.O.S. camera. If you're not going to add anything constructive (which you haven't done), why don't you stay out of the thread?


 
If you need a pink camera, go to the mall.

Seriously. Malls are chick hangouts. Chicks like pink stuff. Stores like sales.
They have pink cameras, I promise.
