640 vs 560: Can anyone give any advice on whether or not buying the Cannon Pixma 640 is worth the extra money over the 560.

I was wondering the same thing so did some digging and found this in one of the reviews "The main difference of the MP640 over the MP560 is a larger 3" LCD, Ethernet connection and print speed."

Their pretty much the same....just that the sd600 is rechargeable so that means that you pretty much need to buy a second one if you are goin to travel or just take a bunch of pictures. Secong thing as you mention is that sd600 is slim...so is more portable.The other one just needs AA batteries..I went to walmart and bought a duracell recharger with AA bateries and it charges for 15 min. and you are ready to go....Bottom line....if you want more pictures, go with the a540...cheaper...same as the sd600

The 550 is 30000:1, The 650 is 50000:1 There is a big difference in PQ of these two sets.The 650 being better.

I bought one yesterday. Will post a review in a few days once I have tried everything out. So far, works fine out the box printing from a camera memory card. If price is everything to you, get an iP6600D at the closeout price.

I have had the e-510 and now the e520 and im havin trouble with it too. Just seem to be soft and not vivid I think the e-510 took better photos.

I've never owned the 110 so I can't compare. I use my 120 mainly to take pictures to use as backgrounds in studio photos that I take and so far it's working VERY well. It's fast, has a ton of features to make it fun, and I use it in the manual mode most of the time so I'm setting my own speed and aperture. And I bought a few spare batteries because everyone said they don't last long. I have yet to have the indicator come off full. Oh, and I've started doing some behind the scenes video and the stabilizer is a joy to see. Make the video so professional looking without the jiggle.

Actually I gave my wireless Canon Pixma MX340 away - As often as our internet goes down, being wireless & all, I couldn't use it when the internet was down, so I gave it away & opted for one that isn't wireless so I can still use it for photoshop. Sorry I could not be of more help.

i own both a coolpix and a canon 590is. Both are good and reliable, but I'll take the canon over the nikon even though the nikon costs $200 more. Why? the canon is easier to use, has manual contols and a viewfinder, The nikon LCD is almost impossible to see in bright sunlight. However nikon photos are sharper especially when enlarged. Canon batteries last longer.

I've had both and like the 520 better. It has more zoom and a nice squared off retro look. Also the buttons on the back of the 520 stick out so you can actually press them. On the 110 the buttons are flush and you have to look to find them and possibly use your fingernail. The 520 comes with a bigger battery, 870mAh while the 110 comes with a 680mAh battery. This camera is just plain more fun to me anyway.

this question is a very hard to ansewer , there is no much diference of the image quality between the two,the 50D has 5 more mp but it won't make huge dif. un less you print all your pict. poster size ,the ergonomics are very similar as well, at the end is the price who makes the diference, at this moment the 40D is a better deal, You can get one for less than 300..if you want to spend more, try to get the 60D instead.

the 5200 is has more features, & does more for you. I would have bought that one if I'd done some research. However the 3300 is a peach of a camera for me. If you are a real photographer...get the 5200.

I would go with the sd940 it seems to have the most bang for the buck. For only $20 you get a wider angle and faster lens (lower f-stop better for low light conditions). Considering that these are generally the 2 most expensive upgrades with point and shoot cameras (usually about $100 per f-stop) I think its a great deal right now. From what I've seen the image quality isn't as good with the sd960 as the sd940 (its an earlier model, maybe because of different lens of sensor?) Hope that helps

Balancing price and performance I went with 32GB 600X cards from Lexar (both a CF and SD). They have sufficient speed and I have the option of using one for backup or video on one with stills on the other, etc. Going to more GB gets very expensive and there is plenty of capacity with the 32GB. Transfer speed of the 600X is also more than adequate unless you plan to run off tons of pictures contiuously and overrun the buffer.

I recently was faced with the same decision. What I basically found through lots of research is that they are both very good cameras. Each has some features that are slightly better or worse, but they basically balance out. Based on the specifications, I had made up my mind to go with the Canon. However, once I got to the store, I found it did not 'feel' right in my hand when I tried to hold it. The Nikon, on the other hand, felt perfect. I ended up going with it and love it. I had a little trouble learning some functions, but was able to read the manual and get it figured out. It also came with a learning DVD. I know several other people who got the Canon and love it. Both have simplified the learning process as much as possible, but you have to be willing to do a little bit of reading or working with someone who owns one. So, you will be fine with either. My suggestion is to just try before you buy, to see which appeals to you more. I think you will LOVE either one. I have been amazed at how much better my photographs look now than ones I took with my older point and shoot.

For the little differrence in money the a55 is a much better buy. It is not just the 2 mexapixel differrence in the sensor, many feature are on the 55 that are not on the 33 . Besides the 10 fps which you do not need their is a bigger buffer to hold more pictures before locking up, much better image quality, gps which is nice when travelling , and much more. The sensor in the 55 is the same sensor in the 5000 dollar nikon body. Besides that they about the same sort of like a Honda civic is sort of the same as a Rolls Royce as thry both have wheels

"Falling apart" is rather vague but I'm on my third "130", the first eventually two developing lens problems - not opening up fully, not zooming out fully. This is what happens when one uses a camera a lot in the outdoors, especially with fine dust and salt air (I live on the CA coast) being almost constant factors. But I have liked this camera so much - with its two AA battery set-up - that I have ordered, through Amazon, two "like new" replacements (both in the $75-$100 range, about the same cost, or less even, as a cleaning/repair these days). You could buy one of the newer models in this series as I believe a "150" and a "170" came out more recently. You could look at the specs to see any differences - no doubt the newer models have more megapixel at the highest setting, like maybe 16mp instead of max of 12mp with the "130". (I have done most of my shooting at the much lower M2 setting, which is 2mp, 1600x1200 to conserve my Rayovac rechargeable batteries and because I only email phos and do digital album folders, no large prints.) By the way, I believe the "170" (or maybe "160"?) switched from two AAs to the more common flat rechargeable. Finally, if you find that you have to keep resetting the date/time, that is because your separate little battery, the CR1220, that powers that function, needs replacing. I have seen that question/problem with this camera come up on this Amazon forum before. (You can get a replacement at Walmart, some jewelry stores, some camera stores for about $5.) I love both the Canon Elph series and the PowerShot series but heavily used cameras of any brand develop problems. Consider buying an extended warranty on the next Canon, if you, buy new! Good luck with your photography....

I have to agree with A. Geib I bumped up the phyical memory, used quality paper printed at the highest resolution and got very good resultsIt is abit slow on the first thing printing and sounds like a jet when I turn it on, but it was worth the money so far, I also have a Brotherat work and its a workhorse.I've used HP's Lexmark, Cannon, Epson it compares to them all, the interesting thing for me is watching the sell price move up and downI may start tracking it for fun.
