Compact Digitals

[DenverGuy]

I have a nice Canon digital camera with all the "bells and whistles", but there are times when I just don't feel like dealing with it and would like to buy a compact digital camera for those times when quality isn't all that important. I don't want to spend more than $100, but could stretch to $150 without causing a divorce. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I know there are several threads on this subject, but I was hoping to get the most up-to-date recommendations. Thanks in advance.

Stretch it a bit more: Elph100HS.

If you can't afford an ELPH 100,
take a look at the Panasonic FH25.
It has a large x8 zoom,as well as image stabilization -
a pretty rare combination at the $150 price point.

Thank you very much for taking the time to post replies. Very good information and I will do a comparison of both today. Thanks again. Much appreciated.
