Quote: peggy "Could any of you suggest a decent compact digital camera, not looking for anything too clever. Currently considering a SONY Cyber-shot DSC-WX80 camera. Looking to pay up to £150.
I have had Canon cameras since I was a kid but the compact versions don't seem to have as high a value on megapixels.
Thanks'"
I wouldn't bother about megapixels too much, lenses and sensor are often what limit resolution more these days.
I have this Canon S100 which I use instead of my SLR, especially when hiking or any other time when I don't want to take a bagful of gear.
www.kenrockwell.com/canon/s100.htm
It may have "only" 12.1 Mp ... but it has a CMOS sensor and the resolution is marvellous.

| Thanks to you both for the replies, I'm also considering the Canon power shot SX260. Lower pixels but good sensor and 20x optical zoom extending to 39x. For the money it seems to be good value and sufficient for what I need.

Thanks, what a great website, not just for the colourised ones.

I love the "Old Gold" image, so much detail. Wonder if the colours in the ads are accurate. Thanks for pointing these out, kinda what I've been into for a few years. Did some for Neil Fox's bio but the final colour repo wasn't quite up to scratch.

| Anyone got a clue what this is?
I thought it was a Turnstone but the black head threw me a bit, it has orange legs too if you can't see them.

...and I thought they were a bird that winters here.
This one was competing for the pasty crumbs with gulls and starlings on St Ives sea front on Monday.

Winter migrants are arriving. Saw alot in Devon. Locally in Herts we're getting migrants passing through, as we are nationally.
The dark head you mentioned is part of the winter plumage.
