    Good all around Point and Shoot camera. Image Stabilization is great.

    Newegg had this a couple of months ago for about this same price including a 2G SD card.

    Have been happy with mine. Pictures are not quite as good as with my Rebel XT, but my IS lens on the XT cost more than 3x this entire camera.

    Often find the flash is weak. Weaker than the built-in on the XT. Much weaker than my external Canon 430-something flash (which once again cost more than this entire camera).

    Just for fun I kept the free included batteries in the camera until they were not usable. Got just under 100 pictures at max resolution, often using flash.

    I've bought several things from ABT over the years, never had a problem. Good brand names, US warranties and good prices.

    Try some good AA rechargeables. They do last much longer than alkalines for cameras.
