I've seen a lot of deals lately on the digital rebel. I'm a Canon lover and suggest you to go with a Canon, of course.

My sister just purchased one of the new Canon S2 IS cameras at Circuit City for under $500. It has a terrific zoom and uses SD cards for the media. I did a good bit of research before recommending that camera for her. She wanted something to take on vacation but also wanted to have zoom capabilities.

The other camera that I liked was the Canon SD400 (which is 7.1 MP, I think) or the more expensive SD500.

Onecall.com and bhphoto.com are both reputable online camera dealers. My sister purchased from CC because of the ability to bring it directly back to the store if there was a problem (which there hasn't been one).

I'm seriously considering getting an S2 myself so that I can leave all my bulking pro camera equipment home while on vacation. My pro stuff takes up an entire backpack and is a pain when flying.
