EXCELLENT camera for beginners

In this camera everything is kept as simple as possible.
It has excellent macro(close up)performance and the D-lightning helps you to brighten your image more(it is very useful). To transfer images from your camera to the PC, is also very easy(you only have to connect a single wire).

The only downside that i found in this camera is that when you take pictures in dark places, images get badly blurred but the strong flash helps alot. Some others may consider the Slow performance of the camera as a cons. So if you want a digital camera for sports and action FORGET this camera. For me it wasn't a big deal.

Be sure that you buy these things:

-a set of rechargable batteries because the camera eats up AA batteries very quickly(mine have 2500mah power--very good battery life)

-an SD memory card.(At least 256mb I suggest)

-and obviously a pocket or cover to keep the camera safe.

Anyway,If you want a small point and shoot digital camera which is very user-friendly, has great image quality and big bright LCD screen, check this one out.
