    Oooooo thanks for the posting. I have just come to the conclusion that it wasa time to replace my 3mp Canon Powershot as after a long time of excellent service, the picture quality is looking a bit dated. Camera seems a good one!

    Don't agree that either of these are "bargains".

    If it were the A150, yes.

    If the camera worked with rechargeable lithium batteries, maybe.

    Nothing out of the ordinary to my eye.

    JMO.
