Re: In the market for a new camera
i love canon cameras. this is the one i have right now
Canon PowerShot A720 IS Digital camera reviews - CNET Reviews
it’s definitely in your budget. along with the things that TLK mentioned, a great feature to keep in mind is image stabilization, to reduce the blurryness when you take pictures. i’ve also heard that while canon’s other thin cameras are good, the picture quality doesn’t compare to normal sized cameras. IMO you can’t go wrong with canons.
sony’s are also good, but tend to be a bit pricier. and they really want you to stick with sony’s accessories, like memory stick and battery packs. also for some reason the picture size is small if you’ve selected smaller pixel size. i find it very annoying. i’ve seen nikons, and their regular point and shoot camera (coolpix) pic’s quality isn’t that great when compared to sony and canon.
