Point and shoot

Hasselhoff

I'm looking for a decent super compact point and shoot digital camera. I have a Nikon D50 for the good photos, but want something I can carry around for all the other times. Two that have caught my interest are the Nikon S3 (black of course) and the Canon SD450 Digital Elph. Does anyone have experience with either of these? I know either should be a fine choice. The guy at Ritz said that if I have a D50 and am just looking for point and shoot, the Nikon S3 might be a little better because the Canon has more features and can get a little muddled with options, where as the Nikon is quicker to the preset modes. But I know Canons are really good (my last one recently died however).

i have the canon sd550. i'm pretty happy with it. i have heard stories of it having a brittle screen that cracks, but i have not had any problems.

If i were to buy a digital camera today i would look also look into the panasonic Lumix series with the leica lens. Apparently they're great.

fuji e510 wide angle (28mm) little less than a pretty look. i use it all the time to picture buildings and interiors. @ 150 $, it ain't that precious either. garpike has one too. 2 AA batteries.

I have a dsc-W1 that has treated me right for the past two years. I would take a look at the newer versions of the same camera.

I found a sweet deal on the Canon SD450, $256 with a 1GB SD card. I guess it's a slightly older model, but like I said, just looking for something for the pocket. I can't find any reviews of the Nikon S3. It did feel a little small in my hand though where as the Canon was more tactile. But damn, the S3 is sex.
