3. If you can't find the WR, then the Optio WP is the next best thing. Smaller, more zoom, better screen, faster performance, and is even more rugged and waterproof than the WR. And lens quality? It seemed just as good as the WR. We make 12"x18" prints from every camera we get in, and if I

Marnie, I bought an SV last month for $260, $210 after rebate. It's a bit bigger than the S5 or S4, but may suit your needs. Regards, Bob S. On 9/4/05, [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > In a message dated 9/4/2005 4:54:36 PM Pacific Standard Time, > [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: > Hope t

Gave one to my wife last Christmas. She doesn't use it much, but our son does. It gives nice images in normal light outdoors, or indoors with flash. He keeps trying to use it in museums w/o flash, so the shutter speed is too low and he wonders why the images are blurry. Use it in decent light and

Seems like I can pick one of these up for a decent price, used. The s4i is hard to find. The s5i, used, is a lot more expensive. It's a little bigger than the smallest optio, but not by a lot. Anyone have one of these? Your opinion? Is another 4mp optio better? I've had lots of opportunities

Hi Marnie - I bought S40's for my kids last Christmas. (What a grandfather will do to get pictures of the grandkids!) The cameras work well and I am being supplied with lots of photos. The camera is well suited to their needs. Lithium AA's last a long time. Photos are relatively well exposed i

I bought my son an Optio S40 this weekend. It's quite a nice little camera and he loves it. Just right for a 13 year old that likes whiz-bang gadgetry... he is constantly reporting what new functions he has learned in the manual today, and it has renewed his interest in photography...
