what is the best digital camera with brief movie option, to buy ( $250-350)........suggest me brand and model name please

you can check www.cnet.com and read reviews and spefications for digital cameras.(menu on left side)

When it comes to point N shoot camera, i am always in to Sony brand. I have been using these brand whole my life. Just a month ago i accidently jump into Lake with my DSC-P100 in my pocket, after couple days of drying, its working as usual. If i have to buy one right now, i will buy Sony Cybershot DSC-W70. Movie on cameras are just for fun, hey but its better than cell phone, just make sure u buy bigger size memory stick (At least 1 GB). Good luck for finding one.

i would suggest a sony cybershot also. Thats a one i got and it works wonders. Also, get a memory card with 1GB and u will be all set.

try this one makes searching better,

if you just want to take general picture then go for compact sized ones, you can step up your choice to a Digital SLR,

Remember you need atleast 3X optical zoom, and i would go for 5 MP or grate,

Sony is good nothing special, but the hassle is with its expensive memory sticks, i like cameras with SD cards, you can get 1GB SD card for less than 20 bucks

The best digital camera is cannon. It has a better consumer rating than sony. Buy any cannon, I am sure you'll be happy with the pic quality.

This one is great ...... offers movie recording as well in 'cinema format' (24 frames/second instead of 30 frames/second offered by TV format camera)

Heheh Khaobaadi, i don't know about movie... but its nice camera to own. U know these (Lecia, if i am right) camera sells for thausands. Do u have it? Or it's just cut & paste.
