If you are looking for a relatively inexpensive digital camera then the Nikon Coolpix S220 could fit the bill. This is one of the smallest and most lightweight digital cameras around. It is only 18mm wide and weighs 100g without batteries or a memory card. With the Coolpix S220 Nikon has produced a camera with a fairly standard design. It has a rectangular shape with one end being given a gentle curve. The edges are rounded slightly to stop the camera looking quite so boxy. As is now becoming typical the camera comes in a number of different colours. These are plum, warm silver, aqua green, smooth magenta, cobalt blue and black. Quite a choice!

The Sony Cybershot DSC W210 packs plenty of power with its 12 megapixel sensor. This camera is small enough to fit into most pockets. It is available in silver, dark grey, pink and green. The Cybershot DSC W210 has a 4x optical zoom lens.

For most purposes you are likely to find the 12 megapixels overkill. Even if you are looking to make large prints you should find 6 to 8 megapixels plenty unless you are looking to go up to poster size and beyond. If you were planning to do that then the likelihood is you would be looking to invest in a more expensive and better quality camera anyhow.
