Sure we have all been there at one time or other the A200 is a great choice I had a sister camera the 7HI which was superb but my advice would be save up a bit more and get any of the new Digital SLR 's you will save money in the long run and have a camera you can add lenses that you will enjoy for years and only have to worry about all the better upgrades!!
