The Canon A70 or A80 is a great choice. I have the A70 but am eyeing the A80 b/c of its swivel screen. It give you the possiblilty of taking pics in every angle imaginable. |
One question, about the battery life, what batteries are you using and how long do they last you???
Because I went to Best Buy and asked them to show me the best batteries they had which were the "Enegizer REchargable" and the guy told me they would last me ONLY 60 shots with the Canon A80, so I said screw that and didn't buy it...
I had read reviews that for the A70 and A80 you can get decent batteries and they can last you a while but I dunno how long they really last...
What batteries are you using cuz I know that camera uses 4AA batteries... |

I have a Canon A40.
Battery usage all depends on the numbers of shots you use with Flash. I find a set of 4 AA NimH batteries can last 100-150 shots, using Flash in moderation. |

I use ANSMANN 2200mAh NiMH batteries with a MAHA charger and seem to get over 200 shots with flash (over 500 shots without) after every complete charge. I definitely recommend these 2 brands but any NiMH batteries with a high mAh value should be good (I think 2200mAh is the highest you can get atm). You can buy MAHA batteries and charger from http://www.radioworld.ca Price list |

I’ve had several digital cameras.. But I just splurged and bought a Canon Digital Rebel SLR. It’s 6.3MP and it pretty sweet. I especially like the fact you can buy any Canon EF lens and they will work just fine with the D Rebel.
The only down side to this camera is since it is an SLR it can not take movies and you can not use the screen as a viewfinder..
Other than that sweet camera! |

I've always wanted an SLR camera. 6.3MP sounds pretty damn good too! |
