^^ Ic. So, that bestbuy is just a good starting point?

Yeah, that and the one you pointed out. Go the SLR route if you think you might get into it more in the future, but if you don't see yourself dabbing into advanced settings- then I would just go with an advanced point and shoot. You will probably get a better deal on amazon, so what I would do is stop in at Best Buy or similar store & talk with someone in the camera dept. Tell them what you want out of the camera & your price range. Write down the model numbers of the ones they suggest...then go home & check the prices on amazon for the best deal. Also, read the reviews, they can be very helpful.
