The camera I am using now is a Fuji FinePix A310. It has been a great camera but is about four years old and about to give out on me. My husband has done some research on digital "point and shoots" for me and has settled on the Canon PowerShot A720 IS. He will be ordering one for me this week. I have been reading the reviews on this camera and they are pretty good for the price. eBay has some new ones listed for a little under $200. I especially like to do close-up photographs and the Canon PowerShot will handle close-ups well, according to what I have read.
I hate having to learn a new camera and I love my Fuji FinePix, but it is not reliable anymore. It is not worth getting it repaired, so I think it is time to get a new camera.
Thanks, MB! Do you by any chance know what the Zoom power is on the canon power shot? Don’t bother if you don’t know - as I will look into it, totally!
I would LOVE to take close-up shots like that!
I had a bob-cat looking in my sliding doors a few weeks back. The pictures I took were barely recognizable.
