im not sure on specific models right now but sony and panasonic do some great cameras. im currently looking at 3 models the pana tz10 - the pana tz20 and the sony hx5v which ive played with in store before i go find one of them online and there all killer cameras but slightly over your budget i think if your buying in store but you may be able to find the model below or last years model for a lot cheeper now. whatever you do dont get a kodak - the last 3 me or family have had have all broken withing 6-12 month

thx i don't like kodak anyway i took 3 back once to currys 1 lens was out of place and the other 2 was returns that was broken.

i could go abit higher on price but depends what it has with it and if its any good

i need a camera for my kids birthday plus need best pictures i can afford of my grandad before he passes unlike my family im willing to pay for good stuff as i dont have any pictures to remind me of him in any way.

the cheepest price i found so far for those is online at  http://myworld.ebay.co.uk/digigood/    but with those you cant swap lenses.  you will struggle to get a camera with swapable lenses for #150

thx for the help

ive been offered one for 170 but nothing with it but due to that i said no it was a Nikon but dont know the model number

Stay away from Nikon coolpix s, bought one for my grandparents and it was god damn awful pictures taken on my phone were far far superior.

I agree with Mac Panasonic make great cameras, my family have had a fair few over the years (not cos they break but cos my dad loses them, so we have to buy a new one nearly every time we go away lol) although I cant say I've ever tried macro shots with them, but for general photo taking they're awesome.
