        If I were lookin' for a good camera to mainly shoot stuff for ebay ads, I'd likely consider picking up an older dslr like the Olympus E10 (4.1mP). $207.00

          BestBuy has the Olympus FE-110 on sale. Newest model 5MP point-and-shoot, flash, zoom, etc. I grabbed one for $179.99 last week.

              man the E-10 has come down in price. I bought mine when it was like $1,900, I still have it and its what I use. Great camera.

                Ditto here. Goin' on 3 years use and it still shoots a tremendous pic. That's what I had in mind earlier when suggesting it.

                  Yeah, I forgot to add that one of the biggest criteria for me was small size which is why I picked the one I did. Some of the larger ones are probably less expensive

                    Shoots a nice pic, no doubt there. But its still just a point-'n-shoot. For a few bucks more he could go with a full dslr with all the handy manual settings and options a PnS doesn't have. That way, if he wants to shoot more than just ebay pics, he's got a versatile camera for other stuff.

                        best advice in this thread if you are looking for best image quality for lowest price.

                        the compacts cannot shoot in low light like the E10.

                          Here is a pic I took of my dog the other day with the E10, I was messing with it trying to make the background blur and the object (my dog) in focus
                          I think it turned out pretty good.

                              Check this one out:

                              http://cgi.ebay.com/Fuji-FinePix-Z1-...QQcmdZViewItem

                              Less than an inch thick. Easy to carry around. Great price. Good quality.

                              Here's a CNet Review (check out what the camera owners wrote too):
