Default camera

The big question is what kind of photography do you want to do? Do you simply want to put pictures on your computer so you can look at them and email some to family and friends? Do you plan on editing and possibly do more with them with a software program like photoshop?
There are some great point and shoots available for everyday use and they're small and convenient.
Are you alone using the camera? My wife curses my DSLRs and won't even take the few minutes to learn to use it even in an automatic mode. My first dslr was a Nikon D3000 and it takes great photos. It was an inexpensive starter and there are lots like that on kijiji for cheap. I'm currently using a D90 but have my eye on an full frame for near future upgrade.
You can rent cameras from Vistek and they're fairly reasonable. That will give you a good feel for the type of camera you could be interested in.
