I'm in the market for a new digital camera. Can somebody help? It needs to be able to focus sharply on the little things up close, say a newly sprouted granadilla seed; big screen; and be able to withstand multiple accidental drops from say hip-height of a 5'5" person. Oh, and of course, it has to look good. None of that Harajuku Lover's HP crap.

I just got a point and shoot Panasonic FX01 in Black. It has a 28mm to 102mm Leica lens with image stabilization. No store had the black so I went to Amazon.Bestbuy has a silver you can play with.
I have a little pentax optio s30. I have had it for 1.5 years. they have released other little ones after this. Anyway it has cool close up settings for things like, food, art gallery (it turns off the flash automatically), etc etc (can you tell this is done by a japanese company?)
And it is tiny with all aluminium body so it still looks hot and slips into a pocket easily.
I guess the best thing about it is, it has an easy to use interface. I wanted to get another brand's cameras, because they were cooler etc but pentax was the easist to use.
I use a "cannon powershot 300." It is a 3.2 megapixel with picture and video options, digital disply lcd screen and an external memory card. ( I use a 1 gig card.) It takes amazingly good pictures and video and I have dropped it many many times from waist high(5'11) to the point that every corner is scuffed and scratched up but the camera still works fine. It goes for a little over $100 US at Wal-Mart.
check out the pentax waterproof 5.0 mgpx camera. it's supposed to work underwater which would be way cool attached to the underside of your board.
I have a Kodak V530. It's my second Kodak digital and I'm quite pleased with it. The reason it's my second is because I handed it down. I also like the software for editing, storage and photo sharing.
