I agree with Cotty. A 3 Megapixel digital would be a better choice. Cheaper in the long run, even if she makes prints via a minilab.

On 20/11/04, Keith Whaley, discombobulated, unleashed:

In the meanwhile, who has an idea of a simple, 35mm film version, fully
auto P&S Pentax, with perhaps a 3X zoom lens.
Assuming all the Pentax lenses are of equal capability in that camera
line, does it all boil down to price?

You're giving her a film camera?

I'd go for digital. The film camera will get used on and off for a couple
of years until she gets a cameraphone, then will never be picked up again.




Cheers, Cotty
