With its low starting price, the Coolpix L22 digital camera from Nikon gives beginning photographers a nice starting point ... both in the L22's feature list and in its price.
The L22 offers 12.1 megapixels of resolution, a 3.6X optical zoom lens, VGA video, and an impressive 3.0-inch LCD screen. Although I'd like to see a larger zoom lens, few cameras with a $129.99 MSRP offer such a large LCD screen.
In addition, the L22 runs from two AA batteries, which are convenient for replacing when you're traveling. The L22 is currently available for sale in four body colors: Black, blue (pictured here), champagne silver, and red. (Compare Prices)

This is a useable beginners camera because of its simplicity and, like Kyle says, its got a handy good sized LCD screen.
I use one of these as a pocket camera and normally take it on nights out for the freinds photo and facebook updates typeshots.
