Which Canon Digicam shall i buy??

Yvisg · 26th December 2002

Hi,

I cant decide which Canon Digicam should i buy??

Budget: less than $1k

Prefers shots to be sharp, clear with high resolution.

Nite shots to be sharp n clear too.

As i m a beginner, i prefer auto than manual cos i do not know to use manually.

Thanks for ur help!

S30 ~ $750
S45 ~ $950
Ixus v3 ~ $680?

Budget 1K? Based on ahguan's prices, go for the S45. It will offer you better control over exposure, etc and last you longer than the lower end models.
