You might want to try Canon A40. It's within your budget.

Hi I am also a newbie. I heard alot of the A40 and will be getting one soon when the market had new stocks.
Maybe u look ard and if u r interested, we can go get it together. Can get discount.

Sony has quite a few brands around that price too.
Consider that.

A40 is value for money and good in features. One of the best in terms of $ to quality

Oh I see.... had wanted to get a Sony digicam but after some recomendations and reading, finally decided to get the A40 (once there is stock leh).
