I am a very frugal person who needs to research everything before I commit to something just to reconcile myself that I am getting the best VFM. I want you to get the best VFM too and hate to see people getting ripped off. Let's help each other, eh?

Bought this after much research when looking to upgrade and it seemed by far best VFM for features and price. Got it from Jessops while Canon were doing a cashback promotion and worked out around £105. Optical zoom is great for this price and addition of viewfinder is massive bonus. Looks a bit more like SLR than most compacts so may appeal more to men than women without cost implications. Has very simple menus and pre-set modes. Battery life is very good considering screen quality. Sharp pictures with good colour depth and clarity. I use Extreme III 4gb SD card and response time from shutter to capture is excellent. I like it because I can play around with the settings a bit and the wife loves it's point and shoot simplicity. Couldn't find a competitor to it in terms of VFM with 6x zoom and viewfinder. Can't recommend it enough.
