My wife and I are looking for a good mid-range camera for my MIL. She has always taken beautiful pictures and we think she has an eye for photography. We are looking to spend between $300-$500. IS this a good choice?

Canon PowerShot SX20-IS Black 12.1MP Digital Camera, 20x Wide Optical Zoom & 2.5" LCD

We are looking for something she can grow into but still has a beginner feel.

I feel she has great potential. She took this photo of my daughter with a $30 camera. (I get to show off my daughter and I am biased)



What would you recommend?

Thanks,

Glen
