I have been using a Canon S50 for the past year (5 megapixel) and love it. They are now down in price to under $600Cdn. The new S70 is coming out now, and offers 7 megapixel resolution - its initial pricing will be in the $700-800 range.

Digital cameras - advice?

A woman friend of mine is intrigued by wetlook and wants to model for me (my first wetlook shoot!), so I am all of a sudden researching/shopping for my first digital camera.

My fundamental question: how good is good enough?

I know that you need at least 12 megapixel resolution to equal the resolution of 35mm film (my benchmark), but that still seems to be in the realm of rather pricey pro gear. Unfortunately, I'm more or less budget-limited to consumer-grade equipment.

What are folks using these days (brands, megapixels) and what sort of results are they getting (any samples I could look at)?
