Could anyone recommend one that doesn't have terrible shutter lag in this price range?

What about the SD780IS?

Byte size: ZERO | Content warning: NOT AN IMAGE

(DUPLICATE IMAGE)

It's sleek and portable, has HDMI, very new-user friendly, nifty features like Blink Detection & DIGIC IV Technology...although it doesn't have the greatest zoom (I mean, it's a general-shooting camera, I don't see it as overly necessary).

My grandmother has it and thinks it's the greatest thing since sliced bread :lol:

Looks like Amazon has it for $199 with free shipping too.

The SX120 is a nice choice. Not too big...not too small....a nice range of features.
