The DSLR cameras look really nice, but I'm not sure what to look for there's so many different qualities and brand names.


Answer
I would get a point and shoot. I have a decent one that I take some good pictures with. As for DSLR cameras though, there's a lot to choose from. Pick one you think looks good, or that you like, and look at all the modes it has. There's some good ones at Walmart :P Fujifilm is cooll.

I'm looking for features similar to that of the DSLR camera.
I want great focus, video capability, great resolution, good zoom, and advanced performance.
Also, which is best of these two choices that I've looked into:
samsung s850 ( http://www.samsungcamerausa.com/product/product_detail.asp?pid=242&category=19 )
or
canon powershot a630 ( http://www.usa.canon.com/consumer/controller?act=ModelInfoAct&fcategoryid=183&modelid=14108 )

i think the canon has more settings to play with BUT the samsung's movie function is impeccable!

Thanks in advance!



Answer
Before I opened your question, I was already thinking "Canon A630" and I see you are too. Here's my standard answer for the question about the best camera under $200:

I own a few Nikon DSLR's and I'd buy the Canon Powershot A630 or A640 for myself. These cameras have the larger sensor (1/1.8" or 5.2 mm x 7.2 mm) that is nearly double the sensor size you find in many point and shoot cameras and this translates into better image quality. They allow fully automatic use or total user control and offer several stages in between. The only significant difference between these cameras is that the A630 is 8 MP and the A640 is 10 MP.

If you're going to spend up to $200, look at a Canon Powershot A630. My son has had his A620 for over a year (May 2006) and we both like it. My brother has had his A630 for over a year and it's a very nice camera, also. You can get it at B&H Photo (available through Yahoo! Shopping) for $184.

If you can go to $300, look at the 10 MP Canon Powershot A640. This is an excellent camera. It sells for $260 and you can add a very nice memory card for under $40. The images from the A640 compare VERY favorably with the images from a Canon G7, which costs about twice as much.

For either camera, buy a 1 or 2 GB Sandisk Ultra II or Extreme III card. You will NEED the increased capacity and write speed to fully realize the benefits of your camera. The Ultra II would be excellent, but if you are really into video, you might prefer the faster Extreme III. These cards cost from about $25-45 at B&H and several other outlets.
