I am one of those who would go the compact route.Having had a Canon t 90 some years ago in the days of 35 mm I couldn't fault it.However it's specification exceeded what the printers could reproduce.And how many times did the perfect photo appear only for me not to have had the camera due to it's bulk.
My canon compact is 6.0 megapixel and has full manual overide.For an enthusiastic amateur it does the job.
