Not an expert but we have a couple. The Canon Power Shot @ 4 meg is great for detail - but my lady needs that for photographing fine lace detail, particularly Milanese. It"s a couple of years old now and has been under-utilised, as most of the knobs, dials and switches are rarely used and most shots are taken at much less than full resolution. My other one is a cheapy which I can slide in a pocket, takes good "snaps" and is perfectly adequate for most things. For arranged shots of tractors, most any good camera that you like will do. For that odd shot at distance, where you need to electronically enlarge a tiny portion of the frame, say, for that beaming smile of the driver, extra pixels are a must. As said below a good optical zoom is just as, or more, important than pixels. The thing I would look for is a short a "lock" time as possible - the time from pressing the button to it actually taking the pic - digi cams are not a patch on the old film cams for that, but you can, of course take a whole sequence and then immediately discard all but the best.
