Hi guys, I'm after some advice on point and shoot cameras. I need a decent pocket size camera for my mum, any suggestions? :happy2:
Thanks

Another vote for a Canon Ixus. I just gave mine to my mum, as i rarely use a camera any more (just my iphone 5 mostly). So it was unused.

This was the one i gave her. Cracking little camera.

If you want to push it a bit then Pentax Optio WG-2.
