Ok, what's most important to your old man in terms of image quality, features, size, simplicity, build quality, etc?

It's a bit like saying 'I need a car'. I've got £20k to spend. What should i get?

[saint_stevo]

Image quality, not massively complex.

 

Ok i will try a different slant, if you had £250 which digital camera would you buy?

Apparently he is after something with better Zoom, of the optical kind.

 

He is looking at the Lumix Tz4 at the moment apparently...... http://www.trustedreviews.com/digital-cameras/review/2008/04/04/Panasonic-Lumix-DMC-TZ4/p1

I've got a DMC-FZ8 Lumix 12X optical zoom 7mp, amazing picture quality and top rated. you can get for £150 at comet (the cheapest) or the DMC-FZ28 with 18X optical zoom and 10mp(also top rated) for £208 on the net! Both have built in novice modes, and scene modes ECT!
