If on a budget but wanting to buy a proper camera, I think something like this would be ideal. http://www.jessops.com/online.store/categories/products/nikon/coolpix-l26-digital-camera-in-black-84072/show.html But there are plenty of point n click compact digital cameras in the £50-£100 price range.

dvp82 Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 If you're not on a super tight budget then I would also recommended the one of the Canon IXUS models. Something like a IXUS 130 or 220 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neeeeeeeeeek Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 I bought my girlfriend an IXUS 80 a few years back, she sold it recently on ebay for 35quid I think. That would be ideal. Easy to use, 8MP and takes excellent pictures and it won't break the bank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hopman Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Have a look on Morgan Computers. I bought a Nikon Coolpix a few years back and it's served me well. pocket sized but is a great little camera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
llamatron Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 I have had a few canon powershots. They take great photos automatically but have plenty of manual options if you want to learn proper photography! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeX Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Something with a good anti-shake feature like the lumix range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
