...so I went for the Konica Digital Revio KD-310Z Digital Camera.
The KD-310Z satisfies my demands well, bringing ultra high-resolution 5-megapixel performance in a compact, lightweight, and easy to use body.

The high-performance, 3X optical Hexanon zoom lens and true-image zoom viewfinder give you professional performance results. The ultra high 5.23 megapixel CCD resolution ensures crisp, clear picture quality, even when you make enlargements.
Okay, so I finally got fed up of having to buy new film for my camera, taking photo's that didn't resemble what you saw through the viewfinder, having to take photo's of your dog or granny just to finish the film off and then losing your film, and to top it all off nearly getting run over whilst walking out of Snappy snaps looking at your holiday snaps.
I went digital.
I didn't want to buy a cheap digital camera as I'm expecting to have it for a while so I went for the Konica Digital Revio KD-310Z Digital Camera. The KD-310Z satisfies my demands well, bringing ultra high-resolution 5-megapixel performance in a compact, lightweight, and easy to use body.
They tell me that the KD-310Z is one of the world's smallest camera in the 5megapixel, 3X optical zoom class. Its classic dark grey stainless steel alloy exterior with a green LED indicator provides a contemporary appearance. The camera's ultra slim profile is just right to slip into my Fendi handbag, while a sliding lens cover protects the lens from all the crap in my handbag and enhances the camera's visual appearance.
The high-performance, 3X optical Hexanon zoom lens and true-image zoom viewfinder give you professional performance results. The ultra high 5.23 megapixel CCD resolution ensures crisp, clear picture quality, even when you make enlargements.
Operational recording modes include single, continuous photo, red-eye reduction, flash on, macro, night-view portrait, flash off, landscape, self-timer, 3X digital zoom, movie, sepia, and black and white. Night Portrait mode uses a slow shutter speed and slow sync flash to capture a picture of someone at close range without losing a dimly lit background.
This camera also has new key custom modes and It also offers manual settings for exposure correction and white balance, which are easily engaged at the press of a button. I can't really comment more on these features being a novice (but well informed) user. Other added features include monochrome photo and continuous shot functions. The Macro mode allows shots as close as 6cm from the subject. Meanwhile, performance has been further enhanced, with only 2 seconds between shots and a 3x digital zoom.
In addition to recording images, the camera is able to record and playback short AVI video "movies" with sound, as well as voice memos. The camera boasts a full array of functions that can be tailored to specific users, from first-time digital photographers like little 'ol Katie here, to the pros.
This camera also memory card and memory stick card slot to increase the number of pictures you can store. Other highlights of the camera include: LCD monitor, flash, USB interface so you can shove it straight into your computer, rechargeable lithium-ion battery with recharging unit, AC adaptor and stylish blue LED indicators.
I still feel I have alot to learn about this camera and as I do the quality of my photo's will get better, but I'm glad I bought it rather than a cheaper one with less features as I'm sure that I'll still have this camera in 5 years time which is amazing for me! Overall I'm impressed with the camera as it is definitely an improvement on my old traditional camera.
It's not cheap though...I bought mine for £260 but it is definitely value for money considering the features and the humongous amount of pixels! Hope this review helps, happy snapping!
Advantages: Compact, resistant, powerful, easy to use Disadvantages: Comes with little memory
I don´t happen to be a computer nor a photography freak, but I manage well with both disciplines, and I had had previous experiences with not-so-good digital cameras whose quality was not by far comparable to my good old optical one. But as finally digital cameras started catching up I decided to go for it, and try to get hold of a moderately good gadget.
After annoying a poor sales assistant for more than half an hour trying to make him explain ... ...of every camera offering around 3 megapixels and maximum price of around 400 pounds, I decided on this one... and have never regretted! By then, February 2003, I paid around 300 well-spent pounds for it. The characteristics that made me decide for it were several: the main thing was, of course, image quality: it´s 3.2 megapíxels, but apart from that, its definition and quality are outstanding; I was lucky enough to be able to see some prints coming ...

...Olympus and Canon and at Konica and Minolta. The chap in the local camera shop showed me examples of photos he'd taken of Ramsgate Harbour and the amazing thing was that the realistic quality of the reflections on the water from the boats was far superior for the Minolta and Konica than for the mainstream equivalent models.
Armed with this, it was down to design and the cigarette packet size of the Konica sold me on it.

Advantages: strong casing for safety and good picture quality Disadvantages: delay in taking multiple pictures
A great camera that can withstand a variety of knocks and bangs.
I've had this camera for 5 years now and never had a problem. It takes good clear pictures which are easily viewed on the camera or transfered to the computer.
Probably the most annoying thing is the delay between taking several photo's. If you want to capture a second photo you have to wait several seconds which is often too long. Also the time between pressing the button and the ... ...have to time it well! Saying that once I'd got the hang of it it was fine.
After 5 years the battery is beginning to lose its charger quicker so we are going to buy a new battery, but I feel that's a good life for a battery. ...

Manufacturer's product description
In digital cameras, 3.2 Megapixels takes you to a level of resolution where the results at popular print sizes are virtually indistinguishable from film. And yet you get all the benefits of digital: the ability to instantly select and reject your shots, to edit your images, to view them on a large screen, to email them or put them on your website - even to print them on your T-shirt. However, the Revio KD-310Z is in a class of its own, thanks to its Dual Slot memory. Its ability to accept both SD Memory Cards and Memory Sticks doubles its versatility. For a start, you now have a choice of recording media - and that gives you more than just extra memory. You can choose to use each one for specific purposes. You can copy files from one to the other. You can also choose from a much wider range of compatible devices. With the Revio KD-310Z you can even choose to shoot everything in high resolution. A built-in resizing function enables images to be directly converted to VGA or QVGA for Internet or e-mail use. As if all that wasn't enough, the Revio KD-310Z is packed with useful features and functions. For example, the three most popular - Play, Display and Delete - can be directly accessed by control buttons. Exposure, focus and white balance are all automatic. You also get a 3x optical zoom lens, a Macro facility that takes you down to 10cm, a range of flash options, including Night Portrait and Red-eye reduction modes - and the ability to record 15 seconds of movie too!
Easy to use, Good amount of mega pixels for personal use, Diverse features
