Can anyone recommend some decent makes and models of digital cameras? The wife would like one to record her art show.
(And I wouldn't mind having one so I can do important things, like put up new pictures of Galen.)

I'm looking around at well. The intersection of everyone's advice to me has been the reviews and comparisons at http://www.dpreview.com/ (at least, as a resource guide). Beyond that, it depends on several factors. Are you looking to be uber-camera-geek or click-n-shoot? Does the size/weight/bulk of the camera matter? How many scudi are you willing to put down for it?

At the risk of saying, "me too", blkeagl seems to have nailed the salient points. One other piece of advice I've had given to me concerns "hidden costs": consider the storage media (price, how standard/easy to come by/memory size) and the battery (composition, life).
