I know there are some very good photographers on here, but I thought I’d see if there was any advice for low-end equipment for a low-end photographer. There is a ton of digital photography stuff out there on the web and it’s hard to sift through.
We lost our camera (Canon 790IS P&S) o nthe last day of our vacation and so I’m looking for a replacement – needs are primarily for snapshots of our daughter and vacation pictures. I’m looking for a new pocket/P&S camera. I know SLR offers higher quality, but I’m can’t justify the size – even an SLR doesn’t take good pictures when it’s at home on the desk.
I was pretty happy with the image quality of the Canon 790, although I hated the scroller wheel on the back. It also didn’t do very well with low-light/nighttime shots, but I gather that most P&S fail in this regard. In the Canons, should I go with something like the SD960 or SD1400? Or is it worth paying more for the S95? Anything in Nikon/Sony/Fuji/Pentax worth looking at?
