Very helpful tool :D

advice

Okay, so I'm thinking about buying a new digital camera. I kinda don't know what to look for though. So just a few questions to help with my confusion:
Is 3x optical zoom good? And what's the difference between digital zoom and optical zoom?
I've tried looking it up, but it's really confusing me more than helping.
Also, does anyone have any suggestions? Like, what are some good brands for under $200?

Thanks a bunch in advance!

ok, I got a Sony Cybeer-shot digital camera and it is amasing. The SOny cameras are very good. I have had good experiences with them and they really come through.

here is one i found for you that is $129.99

3x optical good is good! 3X optical zoom brings distant subjects closer to help you capture sharp, detailed long shots and quickly frame images for better composition -- great for family sports, outdoor fun, and travel photos. The link has a 3x optical zoom.

here are some others
