Excellent choice fyi

thanks Kamal much appreciated, i beleive this is the one i am sold on.

go for a Canon PowerShot G7. 6 megapixel is dead.

like the G7, but i dont really think i need a 10 mgpxl camera tho. aside from the newest firmware in the G7 and the 10 mgpxl the s3 pretty much has everything i am looking for. the aforementioned on the G7 would be enough to sell me, but again dont really think a need a 10 mgpxls

i have been looking for a really nice digital camera lately and the Nikon D60 has spurred my interest:

im looking to spend around 500-600$ for it... looking for 10+ mp and highest quality pictures available.

any updated recommendation would be really helpful

@ ddr, since the D60 has been around for quite a while, you can find that for sub $400 with a lens if you do some digging.

On another camera, anyone have the Canon XSi? I've been interested in that one as I'm a big fan of Canon controls, setup, design, etc. That thing has dropped to around $500 for the body so it's getting more and more attractive.
