http://www.canon.com.au/Powershot/Range.aspxI use the SX 110 for leisure and the SX1 for work.The SX110 (not quite entry level, but pretty basic) is basically as much camera as a chump like me can learn how to use, I can generally get as good a picture of it as I can out of the SX1, (which costs four times as much)The only problem with the Canon Powershot range is you need to use their proprietary software to manipulate photos on and off the Camera, which is a pain if you want to use it on someone elses computer. (There are ways around it, but it would be nice if you could just search through it the same way you do with any other removable storage device)The Lady uses a EOS 40D, but that's a bit like saying Schumacher drives a Ferrari - If it's what you do for a living, it's probably worth having something fancy.
