I haven't been able to post pictures of my gardens yet because I am in need of a new camera. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I want something easy to operate that will take good pictures of my flowers. Thanks for any suggestions.

All my cameras are older now, but there are a few minimum requirements I'd look for in a new camera. The low end would be a 4mp camera, and it should have at least 3X OPTICAL zoom. If it doesn't have optical zoom, don't get it. It should also have a macro setting, especially for flower photos. Most cameras do. I've had both Canon and Fuji cameras, and both have worked fine.

We have a Canon that our son sent us for Christmas last year. It's called a power show A 400. It is easy to use. He sent us a canon printer with it. Dooley.

I saved up my pennies(exept the one's We used on Pianoladys penny ball)and got a Canon Powershot A75. It's great though they probably have a newer model now.
