New Camera Needed - ~£150
As per title.
My mum needs a new one (the old one 'broke') and she says she has up too £150 to spend.
Now i don't think any lenses would be required, but of course expandability would be welcomed.
Other desires would be ability to record video, extra bonus cookies if HD.

for all intents it seems to be the same card minus some gays name on it and a shielded cover ? with OEM added to it - GoNz0.
Tried snapsort? It's pretty much made for helping people decide what to get with a set budget

I don't think you can actually get any interchangeable lens cameras for under 150... (wait for someone to correct me)
Of course, there are always refurbs and second hand cameras you can get if you're ok with that.

It's interesting you linked me to that because the same Sony camera (W350) is on Play.com for £92 - seemed like a bargain then.
Edit: But it says no RAW support, I thought everything had RAW support ?

Point and shoots don't tend to have raw support, only higher end cameras like the Canon G series have it..
Well i can't see it being too much of a problem, would of been nice to have some untouched originals though.

Have you looked at the w380?
Looks better to me at a glance http://snapsort.com/cameras/Sony/Cyb...DSC-W380/specs
If i can find it for less than £150 then of course I'd be willing to give it a look.

Seems to have a faster lens at f/2.4 and it takes both sdhc+memory stick duo
(sdhc is cheaper)
Sigh, the W350 has gone back up to full price on Play.com :/
Suppose i can mull over the links you provided and scour tomorrows newspapers.
Is there anything i should definitely lookout for, i know that the megapixel arm's race is a marketing ploy and its also down to the sensor but other than that what else ?

It's up to your own needs, but I guess having a fast lens is always a good thing. Fast is anything F/2.8 and below, F/3.5 would be slow for example.

Do you know if they are reputable etailers ?

Found them on google shopping search, they seem to have 4+ stars and loads of reviews, have a trawl through google?
I would also look at the Panasonic TZ6 or TZ7 or the Fuji F70EXR.
