With the G series you can add additional lens as well. It is slightly overpriced tho, did you look at the SD900 that just came out, slightly less priced but has the 10 mpx, with similar lens, similar ISO support, the shutter is just 1 stop slower. The flash is slightly better (the G7 does allow for external flash tho). But its so much more portable. Its like a little princess u’d have in ur pocket, ask 5watery
i am using kodak Schneider 5.0 and hell it got a very strong flash and a deep zoom .. but it gets beat by canon 5.1 (cant remember the name) .. but if you are really looking fwd to buy you a good camera with a good bargain ..
consider Kodak EasyShare V-610 Dual Lens Digital Camera 6.1 Megapixel
it has bluetooth and wifi to email and it also beat canon and nikon in picture to picture processing .. and its around 270 bux on retail.
