    Digital Still Camera under $200

    Hi,

    I'm currently in Iraq and am trying to find a good digital still camera so I can send pictures and video home. I was hoping someone here who knew more than me could help me find a good camera under $200. Here's a few things I'm looking for.

    *It'd be nice if the lense had some kind of cover that slid over it (think the old 2.0mp cybershots or something) to keep dust/sand out. Preferably no retracting lense (donno the name for that, where the lense moves in and out?)
    *640x480 video, limited only by the memory card size
    *Fast off to picture speed (i.e. the time it takes it to turn on and take a picture) so I don't miss out on things
    *At least 4.0mp

    Those are the 4 main things I want. One camera I was looking at was the Sony DSCS40. I don't know much about this one, but from the reviews I've read it looks perfect except for the lense cover. Thanks ahead of time for any suggestions
