New member Username: CmooersPost Number: 1 Registered: Sep-06 | Hello All, I am looking for a Canon around $300. I used to have an old Powershot 4 years ago until it took a swim in the channel just infront of the famous Atlantis Hotel!!!! Anyway, Other than it's Slim and compact design, what are the differences between the SD600 and A540.I do like the sound of 4x optical thanks |

Platinum Member Username: Project6Post Number: 12921 Registered: Dec-03 | Go to dpreview and do a side by side comparison of the specs. They are all great cameras. You should be happy with either the SD700 or the SD800. |

Platinum Member Username: Project6Post Number: 12924 Registered: Dec-03 | They are all great units. But when it comes down to it, get the newest one. They are pretty much disposable as soon as the newest one comes out, but you still get a lot of use out of one |

New member Username: Abhishek_kPost Number: 6 Registered: Feb-07 | berny.. i read some reviews about the ixus850 stating it being extremely noisy at ISO 1600.. so wil this affect it's performance in any aspect? |
|
Platinum Member Username: Project6Post Number: 12951 Registered: Dec-03 | It won't. A lot of digital cameras get noisy at high ISO levels. consequently, there are few point and shotos that can go that high. |
|
New member Username: Abhishek_kPost Number: 7 Registered: Feb-07 | berny..should i go for low capacity memory cards or higher ones(for ixus850)? |
|
Platinum Member Username: Project6Post Number: 13001 Registered: Dec-03 | Highercards but no more than 1 GB and minimum of 512MB. Better to have multiple low capacity than 1 big card. It only takes 1 bad fragment and the whole set of pictures are ruined. |

Stick to basics first. Have fun! |
