I'm sure this has been asked plenty, but i'm looking for recommendations on a new digital camera.
I have an old Sony Cybershot 3Mpix which has served me well for a few years, battery life was OK (took AA batteries so spares to hand) and with 256MB cards could hold plenty of shots. The problem is the quality of the photos, gonna be going to the W.Coast of USA in October and will have some good photo opportunites so want to get something decent for taking them - I want to be able to get them printed big enough to go on the wall in the lounge in some form (or at least know that I could if I wanted)
I looked at the DSLR cameras but i'm not going to kid myself that I have the time to learn how to use one properly before OctoberSo was looking at the Canon Powershot G7 - the reviews look good and looks like it can handle taking some decent shots while still being able to function well as a point and click.
So now the questions:
Is the Powershot G7 a good option ?
What other ones should I be looking at ?
Is 10 Mpix an overkill ?

I know this sort of cash could have bought me a decent DSLR starter kit, but I could easily spend 2 or 3 times the amount on a DSLR setup, so small steps... see if i'm any good first...
