I recommend a Canon Powershot G2 or G3, and you should have change back from $200.
Both have RAW format and a hotshoe.

Hi, that would be the little mounting bracket thingie on top of the camera you stick the external flash on. :)

'Moe, I'll second the motion on the Canon G series. I picked up a clean used G7 for just $225 a couple of months back, and I'm loving it. IMHO, you can't find a more capable, flexible camera for the money.
Now I just need to save a few bucks for off-camera flash.
P.S. Would you consider editing your profile here to add a Real Name? It would be nice to be able to address you more personally.

Chris, thanks for the backup, I think I nicked him on my last comment. Don't
see him anywhere, probably ran off into the brush....think I'll go home and have a beer.;)
