Okay, my current (4 yr old) digital camera is being problematic and I need a new one before my next holiday (mid August). I have some very simple requirements:

1) I want a 'point a click' without too much technical gubbins for me to think about;
2) I need it to be bullet proof;
3) I want to be able to take amazing (award winning) photographs, without really trying;

Any pointers will be well received!

I have a Samsung NV10 (10 megapixle) (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Samsung-NV10-Digital-Camera-Optical/dp/B000H0DLJA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1217237862&sr=8-1). I have had it for a good while and i can recommend it. It has a good Auto mode, and if you want to get into the nitty gritty its easy to navigate all of the different options. On the back it have a row of buttons which are touch sensitive and pushy to get trough all the options.

when i got it i paid about £200 for it, and now its £125.

Oh and its a metal case instead of el cheapo plastic, which feels nice and strong
