Canon - PowerShot S3 IS Digital Camera —
I bought this camera for almost a year. It's pretty good. I've compared it with a few other cameras (panasonic 32x zoom and sony 25x zoom) and the zoom on Canon seems to be the best although it takes awhile for the zoom to focus. It requires a steady hand, but image stabilization is a plus. The Panasonic zoom turns blurry after around 10-20x and no matter how long you hold, the image won't become clear. Sony is clear up to around 12x or soI've owned an old Canon SD300 from years back, however I seldom use it because the images are usually blurry when I take photos and the lighting is bad. S3 made most of my photos clear, but it takes a few seconds/minutes to focus at times depending how much zoom is used. And even night photos don't come out too bad. I highly recommend it for those who are looking for a camera with a large zoom size and clear photos (image stabilization). However night photos are a bit grainy.
I think maybe a Nikon would be my next purchase because it's hard to take motion photos with S3. The photos come out blurry.
