In the market...

[acerate]

I'm starting to compare information, features, details and price on digital cameras. I'd like something in the 6-8 megapixel range (middle range size) and don't want to spend much more than $350. Less is better. Aesthetically, I like my cameras to look like cameras. Not the sleek and slim little boxes. But I won't be too picky about this. I don't really have any interest in video capabilities. Just good automatic capabilities as well as manual abilities. Good low-light focus quality is a must, and the longer the battery life, the better.

Anyone out there have any opinions or input? I don't need shopping or review sites (I can find those on my own). I'm looking for personal experience.

Anyone? Anyone?

I appreciate it bunches.
