Hey , where is Minolta ??? , anyway I got a Minolta D7hi , specs are as follows :
1) x7 *optical* zoom
2) 5.23 MP
3)....Well the specs would take too long , so just follow this link below :
http://www2.konicaminolta.jp/english/products/consumer/digital_camera/dimage/dimage-7hi/index.html

The price , was the highest i would spend , While i took some really nice pics I will post them soon .
I must admit , this is not a point and shoot [well they make it with a program botton so you have presets]
It has all the features of a highend camera and allows me to get into a new hobby easily.

HP photosmart 618 digital camera
2.1 MP
3x Optical/2x Digital zoom
Takes good pictures IMHO.
My next camera would more than likely be another HP or a Sony (I'm a sucker for Sony ::))
