I am still using my old Sony s50, 2.1 megapixels. It's a large camera, but it has certainly weathered everything. I like its clear pictures and ease of use. I don't want to change settings a lot in different environments.
The Nikon CoolPix s550 was too complicated for my taste. There were a lot of settings that I didn't know about. Even on easy mode, I could never get a clear picture. All were blurry. Even after reading the manual and trying different things, all the pics were blurry still. Frustrated, I sold it, and hopefully the person who bought it is having a lot better luck with it.
Basically, I want a point and shoot camera that's easy to operate. I plan on taking vacation pictures with it as well as pics around the house and yard. I like to take pictures outdoors of streams, waterfalls, beaches, and of course banana plants! I also want good pics of people and events as well. I just want an all around camera that produces clear, vivid photos.
