what's the best affordable still picture camera??

Affordable to me might not be affordable to you. How about giving us a price range.

like $200

If you want a great camera taht is water proof get this one! <BR><a href="http://www.fotoconnection.com/p58925-pentax-optio-w30-7-megapixel-digital-camera.html" target="_blank">http://www.fotoconnection.com/p58925-pentax-optio-w30-7-megapixel-digital-camera.html</a> <BR> <BR>and for the price you are wanting to pay that is perfect. And it is completely waterproof. There are a few of us who use them when we go whitewater paddling. It also takes really good video for a camera. I am waiting for a video to upload but when it does i will post a link so you can see the quality.

that sounds great but is there anything else you would suggest for a little cheaper?? and on the camera you suggested whatis the difference of w30 and w20?? <BR> <BR>(Message edited by wakeboarder46 on July 15, 2007)
