I was thinking of getting one of these to replace my ageing Olympus http://www.ebuyer.com/product/133118. Does anyone know if it’s any good (looks like a bargain to me)? If not can anyone recommend something for the amateur user that would be better? I was thinking of getting one of these to replace my ageing Olympus http://www.ebuyer.com/product/133118.

It's as hard to recommend a camera for someone as to recommend shoes. If you can, go to a local camera store and try them out. See what's comfortable for you, within your intended use and budget. I you are only going to take family shots for an album, almost any model you like will work.

One of my cameras is a Fuji P&S and I am very happy with it for the things I do with it. With the S8000 pictured sporting a 18X zoom you better also buy a solid tripod. High zoom is very difficult to hand hold. > > I was thinking of getting one of these to replace my ageing Olympus > >http://www.ebuyer.com/product/133118.

I've been meaning too get a decent tripod for ages so this will be just the excuse I need. > I was thinking of getting one of these to replace my ageing Olympushttp://www.ebuyer.com/product/133118.
