SD700 IS vs. S3 IS?

Hello, I currently have an sd700 and I'm thinking about getting an s3. The question about the s3 is, will I have manual control over the apertures and shutter speeds? Thanks.

Yes.

Yes.

Thanks, I see you have the s3 and an sd series camera. Which do you prefer?

I've had both and you can't go wrong with the features on the S3/5, as long as you don't have to put it in your pocket.

The S3 for sure just because of everything you can do with it and that 36-432 reach. But I find myself using the SD more and more simply because it's so easy to carry around - just drop it in my pocket and go. If you end up getting an S3/5, keep your SD700 around and you'll have all the camera you need (short of adding a dslr).

i have used both. the s3is is better then the s5. i have seen a lot more noise with the s5, the s3 in my opinion is superior

My friend has the SD850 IS and my S3 is still far superior in my opinion. He does have higher resolution but the S3 still does great in that department and has much more atristic freedom. I'm getting a DSLR soon but will still never get rid of my S3.
