Having tha above 2 cameras to choose from, but I don't really know which to choose.

Nikon 3100 -a little bit old, but I have 128MB CF memory here.
Pentax Option 30 - New and with 256MB memory it's the same price as Nikon (just a couple of dollars difference)

My choise would probably be Pentax + 256MB SD. Anyone having experience of those 2 and can give me some + and - for both of these?

Thanks for any help.

I do not have any experience with the Nikon.

I bought the Optio 30 because it looked like the best camera for the price. The image quality is remarkable and the features for point and shoot are convenient. The manual settings are limited, but more than other comparable cameras in this class. The camera is small, but feels good in your hand.

Good luck.

Joe
