Best small camera?

  • Article

I've been on vaction this week, happily snapping photos with my old Canon PowerShot S110. This is a great camera, but I bought it when it first came out a few years ago and at 2.1 megapixels, the camera is starting to show it's age. So I think that I want to find something smaller, higher resolution, and with a really good video capability. Is there anything like that availalbe for under $400? Are the newer PowerShot cameras still as good as the S110?

    The only small camera I care about is my Nokia 3650 :) And soon my Nokia 6681(as soon as it's released and sold on ebay)!

    I got the Canon A75 a couple months ago which was for about $270 CAD. The quality is very decent at 3 Megapixels and also offers a lot of capabilites as it can be used in fully manual mode. I really love it.

    S1 IS is a little bulky compared to other recent models but you do get a decent 10x zoom (here's where IS really helps!) and nice 640x480 30 fps movies.

    I've had the SD100 and SD110, and they've both been remarkable cameras. I've taken over 10,000 clubbing photos with them and they're very durable. Unless you drop them in a lake or leave them at a bar.

    I'm going to get the SD300 because a friend let me borrow hers and it's just as good as the SD110, plus it has a larger screen and it's actually smaller.

    I've been VERY happy with my FujiFilm E550. It does 6/12 mp! 3x zoom, uses AA batteries, and is very fast. Downside is the LCD viewfinder is somewhat hard to see in bright light, and no low-light focus illuminator. However, if you want to do tight crops with no (visible) loss of resolution, 12mp has a lot going for it.
