Canon Power Shot S2 IS?

[cavallino333]

I apologize for makiong yet another camer question thread but I was just wondering if anyone has this camera and what they think of it. Seems to have pretty good reviews and the price isn't bad. I kind of heres a link to the camer on dpreview. http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/spec...canon_s2is.asp I'm also considering the PowershotPro1 but I like the larger zoom of the S2.

I play with it sometimes at work. (circuit city) Seems like a great camera but it has a crappy and small lcd screen. You may or may not care about the lcd but thats really all I know about it.

yeah the lcd seemed a bit small. Thats not that important to me though.

My Father just got this. Ive yet to play with it and try to take some pics. But figure its a 5megpix canon w/ manual settings, raw capability, and 12x optical zoom. Im sure it takes pics as nice as the old S500.

Sorry i dont have any examples, and i know he doesnt use the manual features.

Well I just bought it yesterday. Its a good camera I like it alot. You can put it on fully auto or you can use all the manual settings. Its good for a begginer who's trying to get into photography. I paid $389 for it which isn't too bad.
