Hi, I've been thinking about buying a new camera. My main annoyance with my present camera, a Canon Powershot A400, is it's long shutter lag. I could also use a better zoom range. A bit of googling led me to the Canon Powershot S5 IS (http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/canons5is/). It seems a reasonable compromise of price and performance. It also looks like something I could use to improve my photography skills with.
Any suggestions for something better that would fit my needs? -- b
