betteroff withe the s5500. there is a new model coming out so if your prepared to wait you'll get a good deal on one

i like the look of this one

any good

the area im most interested in is pornography, so i need one that'll zoom into all sorts of areas, without steaming up.

ill try that one though for sure

the camera does not make the shots the person does. what kind of photography do you want to do. get a camera that has a thread onthe lens so you can fit filters. fuji s5500 springs to mind

i need a new camera, whats best for my budget, dont want/need one TOO fancy, but want a good one that'll allow me to take some decent shots etc

let me know some decent ones :)
