Cheap digital camera that can save images uncompressed.

Need a digital camera for holiday photos and other miscellaneous stuff, the one we have at the moment can have some awful jpeg artifacts so im looking for one that can save images as something uncompressed like bmp. Must be at least 3Mp and have a cf slot.

If you're looking for a camera that's 'at least 3mp' I'm presuming that the one it'll be replacing is around the same - in which case it's more likely the low mp you're noticing rather than pixilation due to it being a jpg.

Its definatley the compression because it only shows up on certain surfaces, and Im not even looking at the image on a big monitor.

Your probably right. Another thing I need is a good optical zoom, the one I've got at the moment only has 4x but I've seen some camcorders with 33x. I don't want a big camera though. A 16:9 ratio or wider would be nice to.
