Well, depending how much money I have left after fixing my car (seems to be an ongoing proccess this year) and paying off some debts would anyone have opinions on:

Minolta Dimage 7 (leaning more towards) and the Nikon Coolpix 5000 (Olympus is just too damn $$).

I was looking at a Nikon Coolpix 885 but since it's roughly $800 with many less features....

Nikon Coolpix 5000! You wont regret it. Stop by Visco's store (The Photo Experts) at TD Square, he'll be more than happy to help you out. Tell him you're friends with rage2 and you'll probably get a good deal.

Olympus something....it was pretty cheap. 4megapixel camera for a little under 900 I think. It was between that and the Coolpix885. The coolpix seemed expensive comparatively. Bought from Saneal Cameras on 11th ave and 14st SW.
