P&S camera question...

[Rhinotherunt]

I am a DSLR guy, but I am getting a P&S for my GF. She wanted something small that would fit in her purse. I looked at the Canon Elfs, but was able to get more "bang per buck" with the Kodak v610. Anyone use one? What are your Pros and Cons?

i used to have a really small samsung one. got some good 8x10's out of it as well. cant remember the model number though but if she wants a small one that would be ideal!

That would be a thought, but I purchased the v610. Just wanted to hear some user comments. Thanks. :)

No worries. LOL! I did not plainly state that. ;)

You're on a CANON forum telling us you bought a KODAK camera.
What do you expect?:)

I've never heard anything good about Kodak P&S, I have 2 friends who bought about 3 years ago and both cameras are now dead. Hope you dont have that experience. Sorry I don't have better news. :cry:

Hey, my DC290's still going strong when called on (which isn't that infrequently) to immortalize the family dogs.

Thanks! We have a crop of them, all different.
