Looking for a new camera(s). Until now, we've always used a standard point-and-shoot film camera. The Samsung we currently have is a piece of junk and 1/2 the pictures we take turn out fuzzy even though it's supposed to auto-focus. I'm ready to throw it in the trash.
I've considered buying a digital camera and am leaning towards a 3.2MP from possibly Canon or Nikon because I've heard their the best. What would you recommend in the $250 - $325 range?
Secondly, am I insane to think it's a good idea to also buy another point-and-shoot camera? I know everyone and their brother is buying digital these days, but there are also advantages to having a standard point-and-shoot. Quick picture taking, cheaper professional prints, and I find most of them, even good models, are only $100 - $150. I would prefer 3x zoom and want a date/time stamp option but those are my only requirements besides an excellent picture. Anyone got good recommendations for one of these cameras?
