» $150-$250 http://digital.photorecommendations.com/recs I read the reviews so you don't have to.

Sometimes it amazes me the features and quality you can get in a digital camera today around the $200 price point. The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX35K 10MP Digital Camera with 4x Wide Angle Zoom is an excellent example.

Why this is a great camera for Robert-

  • Great HD video & options for smaller resolution movies all at 30fps
  • The FX35 is a true ultra-compact and slimmer than many in its class
  • Many positive reviews regarding image and movie quality
  • Scene modes and lots of image options to customize
  • Nice & Bright LCD Screen on the back for composing/image review

Downsides to this camera? Just two- No manual controls and HD movie clips have a 2GB limit ~8.5minutes. Lowering the movie resolution will allow you to take longer clips.

Buy the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX35K 10MP Digital Camera with 4x Wide Angle MEGA Optical Image Stabilized Zoom (Black)

Possible Alternative:

Canon PowerShot SD1100IS 8MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom Doesn't have HD movies, No wide-angle lens and a little less zoom. It is however an incredibly popular camera with positive reviews to support. And it is cheaper, leaving room in the budget to buy spare cards/batteries.
