I am brand new to this forum so please bare with me. I just bought my daughter and her husband a OLYMPUS C-5500 SportZoom 5.1 Megapixel Digital Camera for Christmas. Actually I have it on order at Office Max. And let me get this straight about us, we know nothing about photography! We are just simple point and shoot kinda of people. As a matter of fact, I own a Sony Mavica FD 92, the kind with the floppy, if that tells you anything. So here is my question.

I bought this particular camera for them because it was inexpensive. For $200 plus tax, I am getting the OLYMPUS C-5500 Camera, AND a Epson Stylus Cx4800 printer.

Now tell me.....for someone who knows nothing about camera's, is this camera not a good one for point and shoot kinda of people? Is it too difficult to operate?

I almost got the HP M407 that came with the dock and HP Photsmart 8050 printer, for the exact same price, but the guy at the store said the Olympus was a better deal. But I failed to tell him we don't know anything about taking pictures.

Should I not get this one and get something easier? Keep in mind, this $200 price range is all I'm wanting to spend. And having the printer is nice too.

Oh, one other question....do these camera's usually come with a memory stick or will I have to buy that seperate?

Help! Hurry! What should I do????

Thanks in advance!
