I have a A95 I still like to use and I think the wife has the A85. We have the underwater housings for them which makes them handy for some places we don't want to take the DSLR's. Also if I'm out just with friends or family carrying all my kit sure can be a pain so it's nice to just have something you can throw in a pocket or handbag.

I have an old Canon A300 which works great for videos :)
It uses CF cards, AA batteries and its small so it still comes with me. It even has been dropped into a lake and still works 2 years later (got lucky).

Old Canon G3, which I had before dSLR.
Don't really use it, but it works as backup in case something would happen to my 20D.
Uses same batteries, memory cards, etc. than 20D.

We have the Canon SD700 IS. My wife couldn't stand how big the 20D is. She carrys this one around in her purse. It's kind of nice because we always have a camera with us.

No. But I wish I did. And if I had a choice, I would pick something along the lines of a Fuji F31fd. My current DSLR is not exactly something I can carry with me wherever I go.

I find it nice to be able to use the same software (Canon) with all my cameras.

I have a Canon Ixus 55 cos it is so small you can just pop it into your pocket and not even notice it's there.
