If you are going by price, it is not a bad camera. Regular day to day shooting in a pinch, it will do the job, its like the old instamatic cameras. But the lens is a piece of cr@p, too much chromatic abberation and not very sharp at all. Get something with a Canon or Nikon lens.

My previous post still applies no matter the megapixel.

What is your photographic experience? This question matters, because it will determine how well you will like the transition from film to digital.

If you are the occassional picture taker used to disposable or instamatic cameras, then this camera should serve you well.

If you really want a nice little point and shoot, look at the Casio Exilim series. Better lens, better controls, takes great pictures.

I am probably going to get the Casio Exilim EX-Z57 digital camera. Is $263.99 a good price

I believe that to be a better choice than the HP. Take a look at the Casio EX-Z120. Well within your price range. Updated camera and newer model.
