Have a look at the CX7330. It's inexpensive, small enough to fit in a handbag. It offers excellent color
reproduction and 3x optical zoom. 3.1 megapixels is more than enough for the 4x6 photo paper typical
of Kodak docking stations. Internal storage is 16 megs, but I'd add a 128 meg SD card (about $25).
How's the photo quality of a low-buck Kodak? How about these examples? My wife shot these with
her CX6330. For the small investment, it even has a macro mode.
My regards,
