Hello all.... Im looking for a no nonsense camera for my grandparents... they are fairly computer savy but i want something brainless for them to use.... I have looked at the Kodak easy share cameras that come with a dock... is the software that come w/ it as easy to use as they claim... IE you push one button and everything transfers to a PC w/o any hassle... also im looking for something that is at least 4 mp.... any feedback on this would be helpfull!
 
Well I'm pretty sure most any digital camera can be set up so that pictures are automatically transferred to your computer when you plug it in (at least with Windows XP). As far as the camera, personally I would recommend pretty much anything Canon, probably the A520 is in the range of what you're looking for. And as long as you leave it on the preset modes, it's fairly straight forward and easy to use.
 
Canon IS S2. IS will help old people with shaky hands get non/reduced blurred pictures.
 
I think the S2 IS is a little overkill for a "no nonsense" camera. Pick up an A620, set it on "P" and it'll be fine.
