My Polaroid PDC640 died.
From experience, we're going to take 10's of pictures per year, practically all of them will go on the web or otherwise be displayed on a computer screen. I think I've made one paper print from a digital picture in the last five years, and
I didn't take the picture (
lsanderson did) - so I'm not especially concerned about that.
At this point, small and cheap are going to be the defining characteristics of what I'm looking for - the Altoid tin sized cameras are ideal. They're small enought that I'm actually likely to
carry them! My
very limited in person shopping so far indicates that the current crop of Casio Exilims and Pentax Optios are running the form factor I'm interested in.
Cheap is on the close order of $100. I can't justify spending more than that right now.
So, recommendations? Suggestions for sites that would have recommendations? Anyone have one they're interested in getting rid of?
