An oldie, but goodie!
I have had my Canon Powershot A610 for a VERY long time, since maybe 2005. It has held up amazingly, from Alabama to Indiana to Texas to Florida and many places in-between, it has always done me well. I am not a camera guru by any means, I do not know what all of the settings are used for or how to use them, but I have taken many great pictures just on the auto setting. I am a HUGE fan of the swivel screen! It makes self-shots much more efficient (no more cropped heads or cutting people out). I also like to use the self timer feature. Using rechargeable batteries makes this camera extra convenient. Today, my camera bears a good bit of cosmetic damage. I did not take as great of care of it as I should have. It still works almost perfectly though. The only current problems I have with it is I occasionally get an error, do not recall which one but I do believe it involves the shutter not being able to open properly. The middle "ok" button also sometimes does not work correctly. I will probably retire this camera soon, and plan to upgrade to another Powershot. Had a great experience with the A610, I can only imagine how great the more current versions are! Battery Life With rechargeable ones! Portability Mine has lived in my purse for years
