For years I have been taking pictures with Canon pocket cameras. Although I do my serious shootings with Nikon DSLR cameras, I use point-and-shoot Canons. They produce very good image quality, very responsive and feel just right for my hand.
Another reason why I use the Canons is that the camera I have right now is my third pocket Canon camera and I am willing to stick to it. Perhaps I am just too used to this brand. Canon A series cameras usually have good internal processor that gets your images just right. Since I tend to buy “prosumer” models, they have a lot of controls to play with, which is fun.
Additionally, Canons use regular AA-size batteries, which makes it easier to keep to one type of power source. All those weirdly shaped proprietary rechargeable batteries are a bad idea. Unless, ofcourse, you want the camera to be as small as possible.
Currently I am using Canon PowerShot A720 IS and I have found this offering on Amazon for Canon PowerShot A720IS 8MP Digital Camera + 2GB Deluxe Accessory Kit
