I bought a Canon Powershot A620 the other day and it arrived by courier today Fairly lower middle range, but it seems like a pretty good deal for the price (AU$539 incl. postage). I've been looking at the photos in this forum for a while, there are a lot of talented people on here! Anyway, this is the first camera I've ever owned, so if anyone has any very basic tips I'd appreciate them. Here are a couple of my first few photos...rather cliched subjects, but I don't have much else around my house -

1. my cat (note the poor use of focus and lighting)

2. close shot of some flowers out back because there's nothing interesting around here to take a photo of ffs!

Anyway, I look forward to (hopefully) contributing something more worthwhile in the future.
