Hello,
I am getting ready to buy my first digital camera. The two finalists are both Canon, the SD800 and the SD950. After looking at them in person, it turns out the optical viewfinder is a requirement, which these both have. Now the differences as I see them:
The SD 800 has 7 MP, a 28mm wide-angle, and is more of an "auto-shoot" camera. It also has a metal/plastic body. It's $300.
The SD 950 has 12 MP, a 35mm wide-angle, and has more manual settings, if wanted. It also has a titanium body. It's $400.
As this is my first digital camera purchase, any recommendations/suggestions as to which one to get? I mostly would use the camera for vacation/get-together situations, but I also camp so nature shots would not be out of the question.
I won't hold anyone to their opinions, but any info given will be much appreciated. Thanks,
Morod
