firstly you must decide the type of camera you want. is it slim, compact, prosumer or dslr?
then we all can suggest you the recommended camera based on brand..

i like canon... but again... i dont understand canon 850IS. the pictures taken worst than my NIkon 4600

NIkon is sharper. But again... Nikon is not so user friendly... Canon is good with their Digic III

Sure or not ... or you dunno how to use the camera. As far as I know, the 850IS is far superior in terms of technology and functions.
