Today, I was shopping at or local Costco and noticed they had a Canon SD940 IS (black model, never opened still sealed in plastic) in the camera section marked last one for only $99 (regular $199).

My wife has been wanting a pocket camera when we don't have our DSLR with us, so I thought nothing to lose so I brought it home (90 day return policy). I'm very impressed with it so far, seems built very well, pretty good ergo for its tiny size, HD video and 28-112mm FOV zoom with IS and very good 2.7' LCD.

It even has a decent amount of user control, although not full manual. It even came with a 2 GB SD card and 100 free Costco 4x6 prints, so for the $, I'm pretty happy with the purchase.


Sony A1, 24-70mm f/2.8 GM II, 70-200mm F/2.8 GM OSS II, 200-600mm f/5.6-6.3 G OSS, 35mm f/1.4 GM, Viltrox 16mm f/1.8, 1.4X TC, Flashpoint flashes

I'm a big fan of those little Canon's.... I bought a 1300IS for my fiancee a while back, she loves how tiny it is, I love that you can still get a damn nice picture out of it :D Enjoy!

Good price, spent about $180 for mine more than a year ago, ended up getting particles on the sensor (somehow, vietnam was dusty), ended up disassembling it, breaking it and used it as a CLP trade in, good story right...

I gave the camera to my wife this afternoon; she was happy. Here is a test shot of our Labradoodle with direct flash, SOOC other than reduced the red-eye a bit.
