I'm looking at digital cameras such as Canon PowerShot SX230HS. I like the idea of a camera with good zoom, stablization, battery life, image quality, video with sound quality, etc. GPS could be handy.

Is this a good choice. Which other Canon or Nikon or Sony or major brand models are a better choice?

I'm not clear about the batteries or the memory cards.

Amazon has a package deal with 16GB for $268. My target is under $300 with memory and battery, but I could go higher if there was significant feature/performance difference.

Good info.

Any other suggestions?
