Ok so I need a new camera, which models do you suggest at this price point?

I was looking at the Canon Powershot,

the Sony cybershot and the

Nikon Coolpix http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-CA/product/nikon-nikon-coolpix-s3100-14mp-digital-camera-blue-s3100-blue/10164923.aspx?path=3659cf1f6959a9d35bca52a3ab7e4b14en02

Canon Powershot :)
I started in the digital world with one of those and it has a great image quality for the price ;)

My mom has a Sony and I do't like the quality of her pictures, especially for the price she paid! :o
My daughter has a pink Kodak that makes amazing photos!
Only problem with Canon Powershot, well, the one I had, is that the batteries wouldn't last... but my daughter's Kodak would last forever!

either the canon or the nikon
sony p&s cameras are overpriced for the quality etc

never seen a good kodak
samsung, no
olympus make some decent 1s

generally battery life is inversely linked to screen size/brightness, as i have been told bigger (and brighter) is better

Decided to buy the Nikon coolpix s3100

14 Megapixels

5x zoom

720p videos

for 120$ CAN

best quality price ration I could find!

Thanks for your help.
