I have owned a Canon SD400 for close to four years now and could never have asked for a better camera.  Not only is the size perfect because it is compact enough so that you can put it in your pocket, purse or any small space but it is so easy to use.  The features are outstanding.  There are special digital micro settings, black and white settings, sephia setting and my favorite is a feature you can use to pick one color and when you take a photo it only creates that color and the rest of the image is in black and white.  This feature is amazing for anyone who is looking to take there photography...
