Hello all,
I'm trying to find a digital camera for my brother and can't seem to
decide on the camera. He's looking for the following/characteristics:

1. Accurate and quick autofocus
2. Image stabilization
3. At least 4 megapix (for 8x10 photos) - prefer more.
4. As much wide lens and zoom as possible
5. Excellent/Good in low light
6. High quality output (I know, a subjective comment, but colors
that are clear and accurate)
7. Ability to do sports shooting.
8. Not heavy (the 300d is too heavy for his needs).

Anything else doesn't matter (movie mode, storage media, battery type).

I've been considering the Kyocera M410R but can't find any reviews on
it.

Can anyone help me out?

Thanks so much.

When you find it let us all know where.

2 Very limited
7 Might rule out anything other than a DSLR
6 Not unless you use the RAW output format

Cheers,

Hi Paula,
There is a review of the Kyocera M410R at:
http://www.steves-digicams.com/2004_reviews/m410.html ,
and Minolta has just announced a 4MP Z3 with image stabilization:

HTH!
