I couldn't find a price on it, but is it a regular digi cam or is it a digital SLR? A buddy of mine uses a Canon (I have a Nikon), and they are both great cams. Sorry, no experience with this particular one.

it's essentially a point and shoot with a 12x digital zoom. i have a 350d canon digital slr, just looking for something simpler...less to carry maybe?
the price is anywhere from 350-450 depending on where you look.

I have two Canon cameras. One is a 3.0 meg point and shoot the other is a Rebel xTi. I like both.
Look at www.nopeople.com Stewart is my friend and he uses a Power Shot Pro 1. If you contact him and tell him you are from this web site and know me he'll give you more information than you want.
