What digital compact camera? £170ish budget

Only comes with a 16MB card though.

Think i'l pop into No competitors, Big Kev on Saturday and have a look, i'm definately leaning towards to the F11 though.

No competitors, Big Kev do pretty good after sales service but are rarely the cheapest, you could try an Internet search using one of the shopping search engines. Price runner etc? Have the prices to hand when(if) you go to No competitors, Big Kev and bargain, bargain, bargain!

But take note most users are recommending Canon!!

I've read the Fuji can make the best of poor light but it generally inconsistent other wise. I guess for me it would come down to the samples.

don't want to be the damp squid, but you are mentioning a competitor and your posts maybe edited or you may want to edit them!

I bought the Canon A620 as a walkabout camera and am very pleased with it. Still on my first charge on my batteries (2500mh) and taken nearly 200 shots - a lot with flash. I have a 300d as well which I still use for 'serious' stuff.

My only minor gripe is it uses SD cards and I have a load of CF cards for the 300d - still, I got a 1Gig card for £20 ish so can't complain too much.
