So Tomorrow I am going to possibly buy a new camera.
I have narrowed it down to the A570 or the SD1000
Any suggestions Pro or Con ?
Both are approx same price around the Boston Area.
thanks in advance.

SD series is the way to go for an easy to use camera that comes with a charger and rechargable battery. Also nice the SD models started coming with hard plastic lcd windows molded on the cover, kind of a must with the increasing sizes of the screens. Hope that helps and enjoy

Often a problem is as simple as the camera using too slow a shutter speed so the picture is blurred. Jon

EXIF data : http://www.flickr.com/photo_exif.gne?id=1600820718 As you can see I shoot mostly at night but the day photos come out great as well. As you can tell by the EXIF data longest exposure for the P & S is 15 seconds wish I had longer but that will come with the DSLR I buy eventually. in a few years ha ha. Any ?? and comments about the photos are appreciated. Overall I am very satisfied with my purchase.
