Default In need of advice...

Hello All

It is Christmas time, and my first Christmas with my new bf.

I have decided to buy him a point and shoot camera and trying to figure out which would be best.

I am going between the:

casio exlim EX-Z350

Olympus X43


Does anyone know which one would be the best option?? Your advice here would be extremely appreciated!

Thanks!

Bianka

I briefly looked at both cameras and the Casio looks a bit better to me. It looks like its a bit more user friends with a nice sized screen on it. When I looked up the Olympus one of the first pages I found were people posting problems they were having with it so I would say out of those 2, I would pick the Casio.

Thank you both!

The Casio will be easier for me to get hold of, as its sold at the office across the street.

If anyone else has any input that would be fantastic
