Q. i am trying to but a digital camera. i dont what kind i should get. i like the ones that have auto face dection, red eye crop and blurr fix. I want to spend under $450. Where and which i should i get?
A. Please look at the new Canon Powershot SD850-IS. This is a very versatile camera that meets your specifications. It has a nice workable zoom range that will take you from broad scenics to decent telephoto views. Look at some sample images from the reviews on the SD700-IS to get the idea what this lens will cover. It has image stabilization, which really works. It is small enough to fit into a shirt pocket. It has a rechargeable battery that is good for 200-250 shots, depending on how much zooming and viewing you do or on how many shots use the flash. A spare battery is 1¾"x1¼"x¼" and the charger is barely twice that size, so carrying the spare is easy and packing the charger is easy. It has an optical viewfinder which can be useful when the sun is too bright to see the image on your LCD monitor. I could go on, but you can read some reviews and see what the pro's say.

Click on "Read Owner Opinions," which are mini-reviews by buyers. You can also read the full review on the SD700-IS by clicking on that option.
The upgrades for the SD850-IS are:
Canon Digic III image processor instead of Digic II
8 MP instead of 6 MP
Maximum ISO 1600 instead of ISO 800
Accepts up to 4 GB memory card instead of 2 GB
LCD monitor has better image
Face detection
I listed these in the order of importance, in my opinion. The first two are the ones that really count the most and the rest are just gravy.
B&H Photo has this camera for $310 and they will have suitable memory cards (1 GB or more) for $20-30.
Many of us trust and recommend B&H Photo. I have been using them for many years without a single problem. B&H Photo is available through a link at Yahoo! Shopping, www.bhphoto.com or at 1-800-622-4987. See also http://www.resellerratings.com/store/B_H_Photo_Video_Pro_Audio
Beach Camera is another excellent company.

What is the difference between a Nook, a Kindle, and Sony's e-Reader?
Q. And what about the future of the Nook with Borders going under?
Oops, but the question still stands, of all the major e-readers out there what are the differences?
