I want to buy a digital camera for my birthday, but I have no idea what type of camera to get. My budget is up to $ 200, but I would prefer to have it be around $ 150. I don't know anything about the best brands, the number of pixels it should have, etc. Any recommendations would be much appreciated!
I think I want a camera with a rechargeable battery made specifically for the camera, it sounds like the best option.
I want a digital camera that can take good-quality video with sound, and a big screen. Does Nikon make those kinds of cameras?

First, don't worry about how many megapixels it has. That stat is over rated. You will most likely be viewing it on a computer screen. I have a 10 year old camera that is 3.34 megapixels, and I have yet to see any real difference in quality against a 10-12 megapixel one. Any camera you buy now will have more than enough so don't concern yourself there.
It really comes down to price and overall ease of use. While there are many good brands out there, I personally like Nikon. Long established with high quality, easy to use and good prices.
Consider whether you want to have to recharge a battery pack (which is cheaper in the long run) or buy AA batteries (which is more convienent especially if the battery pack is drained).
Some cameras will have more features than others, ask yourself if you really need or would use those features.
Nikon is my advice, but there are many other good choices.
