Hmmm, looks like I don't have a picture of this one, but my first P&S was a Canon A60. I loved it to death from May 2003 when I got it till it fell to its death in Vienna.

I then bought a Casio EX-Z10 as a temporary replacement. It was then when I discovered how much better Canons were. AF and everything just wasn't nice.

I promptly sold it and purchased a Pro1. I love this camera but am selling it to cover my first lens (50mm f1.4).

I now have a 20D on the way and will be getting (probably) an A700 for my next P&S.

Lumix LX1 is still getting lots of use.

I just can't seem to get the courage to take my 5D away on trips abroad, it stay’s home in the Dehumidifier Cabinet when ever I go traveling.

Heck I'd be more leery of leaving it at home with me far far away!

Had to borrow the Nikon picture.

Don't laugh. It was actually a good camera (at the time). I think I paid $999.00 for it brand new. Amazon has them for $189.00

I'm not laughing i was using the DC260 before going to DSLR. for a camera just over the 1 megpix, it took fantastic shots.

Canon S230. Loved it, but had absolutely zero control and tonnes of redeye (with flash). However, I did some non-flash photos and fell in love with available (not so lit) light photography. Some poking around and somebody showed the way to a Rebel and 50/1.8 =)

Used it for quite a while though, 2-3 years or so? Still loving it.

Mine was the Sony Mavica CD 1000......a huge camera by P&S standards - to be fair, it had more controls than a typical P&S.

I paid more for this than for my 2 DSLRs Now sits in permanent cold storage waiting to increase in antique value.

And yes, the best part was the 256MB mini-CD which captured the images. It cost less than a buck per CD - when CF cards were still very expensive.

2 more images of the camera...

As you can see, walking around with a DSLR with a fairly big lens is more discrete
