I own the Canon SD 200 and want to caution you about an issue with this series of cameras. I bought my camera this past summer specifically for a cruise. Half way throught the week, the LCD screen just broke for no reason that I can discern. Within a day, the whole camera completely died. Canon insisted that I must have damaged it somehow, but I can't for the life of me figure out anything that would have caused the screen to break. I was not happy about this especially when it caused me to miss out on half a week's worth of family vacation photos!
After doing some online research I found that this is a common problem with the Canon SD series of Elph Powershots. After talking to two different Canon customer services reps (who both insinuated that I dropped the camera or something) I sent the camera in to their repair facility. I was surprised when I received an email back saying that they would fix the camera for free. From what I had read online they usually charge about $150 for this type of repair that is NOT covered under the warranty.
When I got the camera back it "seemed" to work but then I had memory card issues...many different types of error messages coming up. I re-formatted the card as I was told after calling technical support and even tried using a different card. Sometimes I could actually take a photo but then when I would try and download it to the computer all I would get was a thumbnail.
After several calls, Canon agreed to pay the shipping costs for me to send it back to get repaired AGAIN. So far the only cost that I have incurred is the shipping fee to send it in the first time. However I am irritated that I have had the frustration of trying to deal with this. I just sent the camera back yesterday so I'm waiting to see what happens now.
I love the camera when it works...it takes great photos and is so small that it is easy to carry. However I must caution you that the Canon reps told me that it wasn't intended to be carried in a pocket...you "MUST" carry it in a case they said! Now doesn't that defeat the purpose of having a "pocket sized camera"???
