Hi Hannah .. I am also a newbie but .. bought a G7 in 2006 and took it on a holiday with me and took about 9000 photos with it .. and was really pleased with it. They have a new point and shoot out the G9 and it has shooting in RAW capabilities. Most photographers will tell you go and try it out, hold it to see if you like how it sits in your hand .. etc. .. More and far better photographers .. that have far more knowledge then I do .. will be around .. later ... Looking forward to seeing your photos ...
Cheers
Else

Hi Hannah, you know the EOS 1Ds MkIII is on that list, wish I could have one for £300 lol.
Seriously, Else is right, it's good to hold the camera first and make sure it's comfy, I was lucky as I got to have a go with my Grandad's D80 before I got mine. If you're worried about the hard sell, just don't take your money with you to begin with 
Do you need a compact camera? The reason I ask is that any DSLR performs well, even the cheapest ones, there are loads of great photo's on here taken with Nikon D40's and Canon Rebel's and they have auto modes to use until you get more confident.

Hi Hannah, there are also some good secondhand cameras out there. As Else said the Canon G7 or G9 has auto point and shoot plus plenty on manual settings.
