    Hey, i'm a 16 year old student that wants to start minor photography as a hobby, with ofc, a digital camera. My price range is about £120 max. And i need a camera that is going to do a good job, and hopefully last a while too.

    Through my travels around the net, i found:

    Samsung NV3

    which i thought and looked quite good, it also plays mp3 and some video files, which could come in handy. But i guess i've got a phone for that....

    next i found the:

    Nikon Coolpix S200

    Which my uncle strongly reccomended compared to the samsung, for the reason of it was a '' nikon '' which is ment to be a better camera manufacturers....

    But is there any other cameras ( or the cameras i've linked ) that you could reccomend to me? in my price range?

    Cheers a bunch :] - jake
