I'm also looking for a new digital camera. I currently have The Olympus D-520 ZOOM 2.0 MP Camedia camera. (haha, I don't know what it's called so I just listed everything on the camera).

I got this as a HS graduation gift in '02, and while it was great at the time, it's... not so great right now. It's a bit bulky and only takes pictures when it feels like it. If I'm in very bright light it works great, but in iffy lighting it might not take at all or I'll have to stand there for 30 seconds waiting for it to take. VERY annoying when taking a group pic. It also eats up battery like crazy.

What I'm looking for:

- SMALL size (my friend has a digicam that she stores in an altoids box)

- takes CLEAR pictures in ANY lighting (not just outside in bright light)

- it'd be great if you could turn off the flash, not sure if any digicams let you do that

- not too many settings -- I take a lot of digital pictures but I dont know a ton about photography. However, right now mine only has zoom.

- not too expensive

any suggestions?
