Hi, we're going to Haiti for a month and need a digital camera that has a strong zoom, costs $150-$200 and has great memory and re-chargability.

This will be our first digitital camera and, again, the main focus points are a strong zoom, memory storage and re-chargability. We're not interested in any other functions but pictures (i.e. movies, etc.).

Sid,

You might try the Panasonic TZ1 at $199.99. The 10x optical zoom, long lasting lithium ion rechargeable battery and ability to expand the memory into memory sticks (I would get at least a 1G or 2G stick for the trip) all fit in nicely to your specs. Other niceties of the camera are the ISO 80-1600 range for bright to low light settings, as well as the 4.41 x 2.29 x 1.58 inch dimensions for easy portability in a pocket. The 5 megapixel resolution make it just fine for prints up to 13x17 inches. Good luck and have a safe trip.

Andrew
