I am buying a digital camera for my partner for Christmas. Neither of us knows a huge amount about these, and the camera will be used mainly for family occasions, events etc.
I've read some of the posts on here, and have browsed pixmania and dpreview as a result, but having left buying till this late stage, I'm pretty much restricted to purchasing in a high street shop. Dixon's have a couple of offers on at the moment - anyone have any comments on these? (Suggestions of others I should be looking at in same price bracket are welcome!)
Nikon Coolpix L1 €289 6.2million pixels, 5xOptical zoom, 2.5" LCD screen but no viewfinder
Nikon Coolpix 5600 €249
Olympus FE120 €199 6million pixels, 3xOptical zoom
Thanks
