The Casio Exilim is very nice; 7 MP, SD cards, slim, USB etc The Sony Cybershot's always get good reviews too. I also recommend grabbing a copy of What Camera to have a look at their buyers guide, and their roundup reviews.

Anyone got any recommendations or hints / tips for buying a digital camera. Looking at a budget of £100 - £150, for general all-round use - preferably fairly compact.
What should I look for when buying a camera for use with Linux? What are the main open source apps and what do they need the camera to support?
Is one that connects as a USB mass storage good enough? or should I expect more integration than that with the right camera?
Any recommended manufacturers which work best with open source software?
Amazon link recommendations welcome!
TIA,
Peter.
P.S. I'm running Debian Testing, if that makes a difference.
