The Cannon Powershots are good Cameras. That's what my last one was and I loved it. When I first got it I found it so much better than my previous camera. But I kept trying to do more and more and more with it and in the end after a few years found that I had outgrown it. I just hope I don't outgrow the new one too quickly, but I've got a lot to learn before that happens
