    Same question as a recent thread yes, but slightly different parameters.

    I'm looking for one that is within the £120 limit. The Sony DSC-W210 is £109 but has a 12MP capability nonetheless. My friend says they get great pictures with the Fuji Finefilm which is about £89, but I'm not too sure about this claim. Those are about the only two that I know of really, within the £120 limit, what's my best bet?

    I bought a Canon Ixus 95 for £125 from Amazon. It's a Christmas present so no idea if it's any good!

    Quick thing to note, with the tiny sensor size on compacts, megapixel numbers are worse than irrelevant, bigger ones are actually worse.

    Canon have actually reduced the megapixels from 14.7 to 10.0 on their latest flagship compact link to increase image quality.


    It isn't anything to worry about, the main point I'm trying to put across is just to flat out ignore how many megapixels a camera has, and just consider the lens and price and other features instead.

    I've been nothing buy satisfied with my Finepix F31, but that was before Fuji stopped putting their most bestest sensors in compacts.
