So I have decided to treat my self to a camera.


I am looking in the 300-400 range.
I found the cannon G9 for 319 off of bizrtate.com when every other is like 450. Is that too god to be true?
Are there any other camera I should be looking at?
I want something that can take semi pro shot and allow me to grow as a photog.
Thanks Socttie

Check out this thread:

The G9 looks like a great top-end P&S.

Never buy camera equipment from a site that is ridiculously lower than all the other sites. If you throw that website in google; you'll see the reviews.

Thanks Vince that helped me decide, not to go with either of those due to price and size.
I want to get the A650is as I am happy with my a70, and just need an update. Its $285 at buydig.com w/ 100,000 positive reviews.

lol I just decided today, and I may have changed my mind again to the sd elph SD950is but I need to compare features, I just like the size.

Edit: forget the elf a650is it is...
