If one was in interested in purchasing a camera, what advice would you give?
I think it would be good to get one, and i want it to be capable of being 'experimented' with, but it obviously would not need to be over the top.
How much was yours?
BTAW.

I think the most important thing is to have some idea what you mainly want to do with it. In that price range, you'll have to trade off something for something. I wanted a good zoom, for example, for taking photos of birds & things a long way off. You might be more concerned with the speed (digital cameras often have a noticable delay between pressing button & shutter operating, it can be frustrating) or resolution (esp. if you want to print them in larger sizes), or camera size (having a camera that fits in the pocket of my jeans is very handy).
Seen a lot of waterproof digital cameras around lately. I'd certainly look at getting a weatherproof one next time.
