I use a Kodak Easyshare DX3600. I find it incredibly easy to use, and the picture quality is superb.
How much video you can do depends on the size of your CompactFlash card, I bought a 128MB card with mine which gives me nearly 200 still photos on best quality, or something ridiculous like 800 photos on good quality! Best quality can store up to about 10 minutes of video, and good quality can store about half an hour or so.
The only issue to consider is that the movies tend to be quite large - I have one video that lasts abotu 1 minute 15 seconds, and that takes up 14MB on my hard drive! That's in Best quality, and obviously isn't appropriate for posting on a webpage. But in good quality, and for shorter durations should be ok.
Well that's my situation, I'm very happy with the camera, but it's a matter of deciding exactly what suits your particular needs best.
The camera cost me about AUD$600 and the 128MB memory card cost AUD$140.
Hope this helps!
