Can't get more camera than this
Real value for money camera. A light, "small" compact that gives me some control on exposure when I'm too lazy to lug around the DSLR.

Pros
----
1. View finder - saves battery life
2. AA batteries - no extra camera specific charger; easy to find batteries in emergencies
3. quite small - still fits in a jacket/Bermudas pocket
4. Manual/Av/Tv controls
5. Cheap

Cons
----
1. Av does not blur background much - since sensor size, distance to lens is different from DSLRs, its effectively like 4 to 5x the aperture value. (ie. at widest of f2.6, its more like f13 or more.... )The background just does not blur out unless its quite far from the subject.
2. 35mm at widest and not 28mm which would be ideal.

Canon Powershot Digital A590IS
Ordered this camera for a backpack/motorcycle travel camera. I own a Canon Digital SLR also. This camera has been great so far. I don't have one complaint. It is easy to use, menu is very simple, lots of options. I have taken several pictures and have not had a bad one yet. Great camera for the price, body seems sturdy even though some think it is cheap plastic.

Digital Camera Reviews: Canon PowerShots SD600, SD630, SD700 IS

Hello! Today we continue with our Canon digital cameras reviews. But in this post we will dwell on another series: Canon PowerShot SD. If you are not against, we will act on our old worked-out scheme, i.e. compare several cameras of the same series but of different level of production, I mean features and capabilities. We will distinguish between their similarities and differences and note this down in 2 tables. (But if you have any objections, advice or wishes, you are welcome with them any time! I’ll be extremely happy to read and to take them in consideration, as well as try to fulfill.) And today we are going to have a look at Canon PowerShot SD 600, SD630 and SD700 IS that will be available in April 2006. To be more exact, now we’ll delimit their properties and next time we’ll discuss their features, all the pros and cons in a more detailed way.
