Resolution: More the resolution, more the clarity and detailed the picture will be. But a 4 mega pixel camera makes a good quality print suitable for vacations. If you're not a better shooter, then you may need to zoom and crop some part of the images and in this case higher resolution might help.

Short lag time: This is the time difference between the pressing of the shoot button and the real shot. Shorter the lag time, better the shot. Imagine if it was 2 secs then you might have missed your perfect shot already.

SD Card slot: They have become inexpensive, widely available and industry standards these days. 1 or 2 GB card would be sufficient enough for a vacation.

Right size: Does it fit comfortably in your hand and in your pocket? Are the dials large enough that you can set them easily? Is the LCD large enough?
