So i'm looking for a camera and 200 dollars is my limit. I'm looking for a camera with good picture quality (for the price) that has the ability to take video w/ sound. I would prefer a camera that has or can be upgraded to a lithium ion battery but not necessary. I plan on upgrading the memory card.
Here's what i've found so far: kodak easyshare m1093 IS canon powershot a590 IS Any thoughts on these or if you know of a better alternative feel free to post. This will be my first camera so any other advice is appreciated. Thanks. |

ok well I was just about to purchase the SD790 when my friend told me about his A480, they just came out. He's very happy with it and recommended it to me. It doesn't use Li ion batteries but it does have very similar specs to the 790 and is $50 cheaper. It also says it has motion detection, is this comparable to optical image stabilization or is one better than the other?
