Jeff get the A80 instead. I don't think there is a huge price difference.

Canon A80 is a good camera from what I heard. I was deciding between the A70 & my current one - Sony DscP8 when I was making a purchase.

I'll just like to say that with Sony, you can use other memory disc by other brands as well. I've got a Lexmark memory disc and it works well. As long as it's a memory disc, i don't think it matters what brand it is. On the upside, Sony's memory disc works on all sony products, so if you have a sony mp3, you can share the memory disc between your digicam & your mp3 player. Just thought I add that piece of information.

if my Sony F717 is to expensive to repair (damn orangina and vodka) then i'll get a Canon DRebel. The Sony F828 is so sexy and tempting, 8mp wonder.

If you really want a good digital camera and just want to keep it simple and not go overboard money wise...then i suggest you get the Canon Powershot S400. I got mine last month and it's amazing, so many features yet so easy to use, and at 4 MP.


PS- unless you're a professional photographer i wouldn't go above 4- 5 MP

I've been meaning to get a digital camera myself. A friend of mine told me don't get it at futureshop or places like that if you want high end cameras. He told me to check out a place call Vistech (I think that's how it's spelt). It's located at Shumac (again spelling) and Queen st. E. This place cator to the industry but will be happy to help the small guy. They have excellent service and they don't need your money because of the previous sentence. Anyway I plan to go check out this place someday. My advice is be patience and don't rush (cuz I'm waiting for the 7 egapixels ) Goodluck

I'm liking the Canon 300D but they don't have video recording from what I was told so far

P.S. Does anyone have a DVD burner and can burn me some discs at a reasonable price?
