Hi everyone,
A friend of mine recently lost everything to a house fire. She is now looking to purchase a new camera....she is just your typical P+S camera person, she doesn't do it for "real", just does your snapshot every day type of thing. Due to her losing the house, her funds are limited with about $200 being her cap. I recommended the Canon Elph 110, but I don't like that there are no manual controls. The only thing I really want her to be able to control if she'd like is shutter speed as she likes to take pictures of her animals and such. She mentioned that her last camera (a really crappy one, albeit) did not get any motion pictures at all. I agree...her old one was horrible.
So what are your suggestions within that range? She's not looking for mindblowingly good, since it's just for pleasure, so don't worry about that. Just something functional that takes decent pictures.
