Our office is planning on purchasing a new digital camera for marketing purposes. The camera will be used to take pictures of buildings, both under construction and completed. Mostly exterior shots during the day, with some interior pics possible. The camera should also work reasonably well in low light conditions, since there is minimal lighting inside buildings that are under construction. SmartMedia cards and either included rechargable or AA batteries preferred.

USB interface is good, however since most of our computers still use Win95a a serial model would also be considered. No firewire, please.

Price range figure about $300-$400 US or $400-$600 CAN.

Somebody at our head office recommended a three-year old 0.5 megapixel model which isn't produced anymore so any recommendations based on your actual experience is appreciated.
