Cool! My new digicam will be here tomorrow!

Bought it on Saturday night from buy.com for $179 - 6% coupon = $169 w/free shipping and no tax.

And, amazingly, buy.com shipped it today, and it'll be here tomorrow!

I might be a little slow on the digital bandwagon (this is my first digital camera 😱), but I like the idea of only 2 AA batteries and SD instead of CF media (I already own a 256MB SD card).

🙂
 
It looks like a great camera. I bought my dad the A75 and wish the A510 one would have been out a couple of months earlier.

I got the same camera for $161 with a free ($70) Canon printer last week. You lose.

I don't need a printer 🙂heart: my Epson RX5400), but where'd you get the camera, out of curiosity?

Helped a buddy select a camera last week, all the new canons have small sensors.

Less battery consumption, smaller size, I guess?
 
Well I think the sensor size is the same in A75 and A510, but like you said it uses 2 instead of 4 batteres, which makes it a much nicer weight I think, 4 is a little heavy. Maybe Dad is better off with the A75 afterall, since the CF card is a little easier to handle than smaller SD.

 
Got mine at J&R. Printer from Newegg. Rebate on printer from Canon. I just stole the UPC's and gave both the camera and printer to a half-sister of mine that just had a kid.

A75 has a 1/2.7" sensor while the A510 has a 1/2.5" sensor, they actually increased the sensor size.
