Help my girlfriend choose a camera, please :)

[Steven001]

Hello,

My girlfriend is after a compact camera, looking to spend £120 max and is wanting the best camera for her money. We've looked at: Samsung ST50 (Tesco are selling it for £119), Sony W210 and Canon PowerShot A1100 IS - which one of those (or any others) would you recommend?

Thank you,
Steven

I am sure I could help her...now if she would just accompany me into this here Janet Reager shop I will put my mind to the task of choosing the right gear for her.....

I know the panasonic tz6 and tz7 have fantastic zoom range, might be a little out of budget though, still. One of the things that annoyed me about most compacts - even before i knew what an slr was - is the low zoom range. The tz6 and tz7 have 12x i beleieve, and use leica lenses.
