Why not give him that one, and get a better one for yourself? Seems a good way to keep upgrading cameras as they get better. Get a new one, and let the kids destroy the old ones, and they will if they are allowed to use it unsupervised.

Of course Bruce!  That should've been obvious to me, considering that THAT
is just what my boys were doing with my digicam when they took those shots
of me yesterday.  They took photos of each other with each of their toys, in
front of flowers, pics of each others ears, and even their left over lunches
on their plates!  I am looking into a digital camera for him right now...

I tried SLR's for my girls - now 14 & 16.  The cost of film/processing
was killing me.  They were very willing to shoot all the film I would
give them.  Most of it very exploratory.  Since getting them digital
P&S's, they have had much more fun learning and exploring and I have
had much more fun not paying for lot's of silly shots.  The bottom end
Optio (whatever that is now) would be more than adequate.  One
daughter has a Canon A10 (1.3MP) and the other has an Optio 230 (2MP).
You can get a reasonable 5X7 out of either camera.  They shoot to
their heart's content. You win all the way around.

Hey Sylwek,


Crikey mate, you don't need that flash on top of your MZ-S, just scrim
the old forehead down a bit with some black cloth - should work a treat

Cheers, Cotty (who does that all the time......)
