I have a Canon PowerShot A60 as well, someone mentioned it. It has great options (a few i'm still finding out!) and even have video record.

My old camera which I LOVED way better than my new one was a FujiFilm FinePix 1300. I know a few Pet Talkers had bought one after I had got mine... Leslie(AdoreMyDogs) has one! She said she loves it, as well as I did.

I only got a newer one because I wanted to Recording option.

Both of my cameras were farely low price, both were under $300.
