Help to find a Camera <$540

[volk]

Hi All,

I am a 2040z user. Now sourcing for a <$540 DC for a lucky draw price for my company.
Any popular and reliable brand but impt is USER-FRIENDLY.

Any to recommend? Was looking at A40 quite some time ago...but realised that the price has dropped to $430.

Want to buy a DC as close to $540 as possible inorder to maximise the $$$.

I, myself will have a chance of winning it as well...

Pls help.

Thanks.

why not package the A40 with a 128mb CF card? about $90... will bring it close?

not a bad idea to add a cf.

What about any good dc around this price?

Fuji? Nikon?

Will be going down to AP tomorrow to check it out too...just a couple of month never keep track the price has change quite significantly.

can consider branded super compact cams with little manual functions? They tend to be more popular with the general crowd.

Thanks for all replies.

Yesterday went to AP to get IXUS V2 for $550 + free original casing.

I hope I got a good buy.

Anyway I find the LCD screen very sharp and nice.
