Just pre-ordered the new Canon PowerShot s200 digicam!

Just pre-ordered the new Canon PowerShot s200 for $280.43 with free overnight shipping and no rebate hassles.

This will replace my pathetic Kodak DX3700 digicam which I picked up from Circuit City for $169.99 last month.

<--- Hoping I don't get buyer's remorse.

Sounds sweet...



<< CeBIT 2002: 0600 GMT: Canon has today announced the DIGITAL IXUS v² (EU name) / S200 DIGITAL ELPH (US name). The DIGITAL IXUS v² has the same 2x optical zoom, 2 megapixel CCD as the previous Digital IXUS (S110 ELPH) but now has a revised stainless steel body design, an orientation sensor, improved navigation controls, selectable ISO, spot metering, better Direct Print (CP-100, CP-10 and BJ S820D) and EXIF Print (EXIF 2.2) support. In addition there's also a new waterproof casing (WP-DC600) which enables the IXUS v² to be used at depths of up to 30 m (100 ft). >>




I had the original s100... but sold cause I wasn't satisfied with
pic quality...I've seen seen pics taken with a s110 and think they're alot better..
Hopefully, this one will be even a nicer improvement.

One of my biggest gripes with my Kodak DX3700 are how indoor pictures look and the SLOW shutter speed.

I wonder how slow/fast "15 - 1/1500 sec" is for the Canon s200?

If I had the money, I'd buy it cause I've been wanting to get one of these. Too bad I'm broke:frown:

ive got the original s100. i think its a great camera outside of the focus lag. I mean its pretty fast focus lag wise relatively, but thats the one thing i miss from fixed focus digitals.
