If you want to take good flash pictures, I would highly recommend a camera
that will take an external unit that can be used for bounce flash.
Bouncing the flash off the ceiling elimates ``red eye'', and can produce
much more natural looking pictures.

I really prefer the memory stick readers.  USB readers are generally
available for about $20.00US, they eliminate any camera interface problems,
and there's no drain on the camera battery while downloading pictures.
