Its discontinued.

I would suggest a Canon SX110 IS which packs in 9MP sensor along-with 10x optical zoom with optical image stabilization.

hmm...ya but i kind of had my heart set on sony w300...wat say bout this one/??

seems like most of u'll prefer canon over sony.....any particular reason???

@speedyguy......the thread is named that way bcuz i initially planned on buyin w300 or t90...but asked 4 suggestions...and so we all shifted over to canon as a better option.:oops:

I'm suggesting the Canon SX110 IS coz I own the Canon SX100 IS & am delighted with its performance. The SX110 IS is an upgrade to it so it should perform brilliantly since SX100 IS is a brilliant camera.

I've used canon sx100 is and older sony w series camera (w200 i think). Sony just cant match canon in quality . Sx100 is an great camera for its price and if you learn a little manual photography you do interesting things with this cam.

T90 is all about fashion and isn't really about performence . It cannot be compared to sx100 because both have totally different target market. If you want a good lookin cam then very few camera can match it.

The reason i avoid sony cams are high price of memory stick(can be 3x costly) and video records in format that is not very compatible for editing.

was a lil busy..so cudn't post my review...but here it is:::::::::::::::::::::::


IXUS 100.....great looks (i've got the red one...) nd greater shots...
pics of people or individuals...my lazy dog or a flying bird...
took pics even of fast moving trains & cars on the road...it just never fails!!!!

battery life is awesome too....<<touch wood>>
and everyone who sees it cannot help but praise.....

its so light nd slim that now whenever i see my old cam (wich was a cybershot btw..) i find it bulky....

nd no i am not advertising or anything(....cannon isn't payin me yet :wink:),..but its a gem...worth falling in love with!!!
