I Need New DigiCam

I can't take pictures this time because I don't have camera. Our Daddy brought our old one so I ended up taking pictures of Shiloh on my phone. I can use our video cam because it has still photo capture but I don't like to open and close it eveytime I am using it. It's a hassle. So now I am in need of a new digital camera. I am planning to get one early next month. Is there anybody who can give me some hints or pointers of what brand I should get. I prefer a small, handy one. If you are using one and you think it is very nice, easy to use and affordable please give me some testi. Thank you guys.
