While a decent camera, I wouldn't recommend the A series to meet his needs.
-requires AA batteries, he's looking for rechargeable
-twice as heavy
-half the LCD
-manual focus/aperture/shutter options (read: buttons)
-larger form factor
-the IS versions tend to be more expensive than SD series

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth

No longer onyachin.
So it's the SD870IS. Does anyone know of any smokin' deals. I don't want to buy locally and have to pay sales tax. Buydig.com has the best price so far at 255
Two feet.
Buydig has free shipping too and Amazon's free shipping can lick my balls. I would rather pay the 5 bucks and have it in my mitts within a few days.
Two feet.
I get most amazon free shipping in 3-4. :dunno:
Never heard of Buydig but that doesn't mean anything.

Good tip on the SD card. I'll get that. I've only ever ordered books from Amazon maybe the literati are lazy fucks :dunno:

Ironically, I've never ordered a book from amazon because I only reads t3h internets!
They have 2/4/8 gb versions so which you gets depends on your budget. I'm a bit paranoid about losing all my photos (although it's never happened) so I prefer to spread things out a bit. (2x2 vs 4x1) Note that memory cards have come a long way in the last few years and that's a completely irrational fear.
edit: I just went back and looked, I've had 104 orders from amazon over the last 10 years. A lot are gifts but a lot are also multiple items per order. :oops:
