The Canon Powershot SX130 is a pretty good camera with a whopping 12x optical zoom, as well as manual exposure controls. It costs $194 right now at B&H, which is, by the way, a great place to buy (if you are planning to buy online).

If you think your dad wants something more "fashionable" or whatever you'd like to call it, the Canon ELPH 100 is a good camera for the money. It comes in multiple colors and is thinner than the SX130. It costs $170-$180.

The PowerShot SX30 IS lets you record video in beautiful high definition (1280 x 720 pixels). The camera also makes it easy to enjoy HD videos (and still photos) on your HDTV with a mini-HDMI connector for direct connection to a high-definition TV monitor. You'll enjoy the HD experience with no degradation of image or audio in the signal, plus the ability to display up to 130 still images at once.
