Well, I used to use a Sony Cameras, the tiny DSC cybershots. So, I went to look at them first, I really like the T2, T200, T70, T20.
they are all very similar, T200 has a touchscreen, as does the T2 and T70. The T2 has built in 4gb of space, but is a bit more then 300$.
Basically the necessities of the camera are :
-- Rechargeable battery, that you can just plug into the wall, like you can with Sony cameras. (I have having 4 triple A batteries laying around).
-- Small point and shoot, dont need a fancy, huge DSLR
-- Decent night images, I dont expect perfection, as these tiny p&s's dont get their flash very far
-- 200-300$
-- I would rather have a better battery life then a touchscreen, so normal screen is perfectly fine.
-- built in memory over 2gb is a plus, but not expected.
I mean, if the T2 and its predecessors are the only ones that would meet my expectations, I have no problems getting a Sony again. I just thought I would see what else is out there in this price range.
Update : I purchased a NEW Sony T20, as it had all teh features I wanted, and when taking a picture shakily, it takes really unshakky ones. It also takes 'action' shots very nicely, I assume its because the shutter is going real fast 😛.
It has a nifty program mode where I can switch around options and stuff, ISO, shutter speeds, etc.
Plus battery life is realllly high compared to those bigger touch screen ones.
