I'm actually in the market for a new compact as my 1.3mp Fuji has a sticky lens slide

might be something to do with the sand thats stuck inside :roll: I also have a £40 jessops funcam thingymabob that I keep in the car for emergencies and any amusing pictures.
The wife wants to get into photogrpahy tho so might end up with getting her a Fuji S7000 to play about with whilst I'm out with the 300D
