(A rhetorical question, I guess.) I don't know much about the details of photography, but I would like to take some pictures more interesting than just family, friends, etc, i.e., I'd like something with manual controls in addition, perhaps, to some automatic features. I don't want to spend over 200 dollars. Recommendations? I've heard Ricoh, though mostly unadvertised, makes a pretty good line of cameras (supposedly they make all their own parts). -Rob
