Canon Ixus New
should i buy the new sony w200 or the canon ixus 900ti digital camera?

The main difference according to specifications is that the Sony has image stabilization. Gotta love it. Go here and read the owner opinions. Be aware of the “absence of fine/standard mode at 12 MPixel but this seems to be the norm today with Sony compacts,” says one user. I don’t exactly understand what that means, except it appears you do not have full function at 12 MP.

You can also read the review of the Canon, which is the camera I bought for my own pocket camera about 6 months ago, by the way. And I love it… It does not have “IS,” though, which might make for sharper pictures. I can’t say that I’ve missed it at this point, though. It’s not like there is a huge telephoto and using the viewfinder instead of the LCD makes for somewhat less shaking.

Go to my Flickr site http://www.flickr.com/photos/samfeinstein/ and click on “Tags.” Then click on “SD900″ and you will find a few pictures made with the camera. Click on “All sizes” and then “Original” and judge for yourself.

Canon Ixus New

the canon ixus 950, ixus 80 or nikon coolpix?

i’m looking for a new digital compact camera. i have used canons a lot and have narrowed my choices down to:
Ixus 950
Ixus 80
or
Nikon Coolpix S700

They are all fine cameras, all use SD cards … the S700 has the highest ISO setting (3200) and some new features, like face recognition and D-Lighting which rescues dark or backlit pictures .
