I work at walmart in the photo dept. Based on what I see come back, this is where I stand on Brands.
1. Nikon, Cannon, Sony, and Fuji, are top grade cameras. I suggest these first. If I get one of these brands back, its usually been dropped or it's been operator error.
2. Kodak, Pentax, Casio, and belive it or not, HP come in second. These brands tend to come back once in while but not at a high rate. They're decent cameras and won't break your wallet. Granted, you'll find them priced from $100 to $300+ dollars, but the prices don't seem to reflect their reliabilty.
3. Samsung and Sanyo are the highest returned cameras. The only thing that's notable about these brands is that you get alot of camera from your money. They tend to come with a lot of features at lower price than thier counter parts. It's a crapshoot with these two. You may get lucky and get one that'll hold up for quite some time and also takes good pictures, but you could end up with one of the multiple returned ones I see.
