    What camera?

    Hello, if anyone could help I would be appreciative

    my parents are on the lookout for a digital camera, they have never owned one before and are looking to spend betwee £100-£200

    basically they take most pictures outdoors, so good outside performance would be good and I think an optical viewfinder would be useful as well (have heard that alot of lcd screens arent that visible in the sun).

    has anyone any ideas? Ive seen a few that look okay:

    Canon A520
    Sony DSC-S80
    Canon Ixus 40

    any more please?

    You can't go wrong with the Canon Ixus series. I am very pleased with mine and it has been going strong for a few years.
    Try em out in a shop, then figure out from there.
