The Casio Exilim EX-Z1080 offers over 40 "best shot" scene modes, including a digital anti-shake mode (which somewhat compensates for the camera's lack of optical image stabilization). The 10.1 megapixel sensor and 3x optical zoom, housed in a metal body, are both relatively standard for cameras of this size and price range. Facial recognition software can be taught to recognize and prioritize specific faces, so your familys smiles are in focus rather than the bystanders around them.
