I remember a Kodak film compact, (I used it as late as 2006 during military service), simple camera with no electronics.
HP photosmart 435 - (ate batteries like crazy)
These were the cameras my family owned when I was still young, so I had no choice.
My own first camera was Olympus Mju600 digital point and shoot, bought it used from a friend of mine, and after a week I longed for some manual control.
Then my family bought Nikon Coolpix P80, I had some say in choosing the camera. It is still in use by my family.
I began using Pentax in 2009, when I bought my first new camera - the K-x. At that time it offered the most "bang for buck" and was a bit ahead of its time compared to rival entry-level DSLRs. I have not regretted my choice.
