any Henry's... not as cheap as a big box retail store, but at least they won't cram an extended warranty down your throat. |

i'd also recommend the canon. Me, my brother, 2 of my sisters and 2 of my best friends all have the powershot sd400. i love mine. its easy to use, takes great pictures and video. its small, and pretty sturdy. i'm not known for being careful with my ..i don't put it in a case or anything, and its perfect (albeit wear and tear scratches).

Your are right to a point ..
In higher end D-DSLR cameras .. you want either the Canon EOS or Nikon D70+
Cannon and Nikon are where its at .. as for Point and Shoot .. I was not a fan of any of the Nikon cameras that i've used .. The Canon like everyone as said .. is one of the best P&S cameras out there..
the SD600 is an amazing camera yes .. my bro has it .. big LCD screen on the back .. and really nice pics ! |

I love Fuji for P&S cameras, Finepix F420 was my fav
Advice would be to go to one of the clearing-type places (there is one at College and Spadina) and get a refurbished one. |

Wow the 630 downloads pictures wirelessly and also takes pictures from up to 100 feet away from the camera. Now that is high tech. |

Have you noticed any issues with red eye? my SD400 gives everyone red eye even in red eye protection mode... I think i need to take it in to get looked at... |

Agreed. If you are downtown, Henry's has both an outlet store and a regular store right beside each other (Queen and Church). They've always got good deals in the outlet store.
Plus, I think the dude with the beard from the Canadian Tire commercials works at the regular store. It's probably worth the trip just to see him... |

that's not something that can really be fixed. it's just because it's a really small camera. the flash is too close to the lens, and that's why you have the red eye issue. |
