<p>Yes, another camera thread! My daughter’s camera broke again and it isn’t worth fixing it a second time due to it’s age. She and I have the same camera, a Canon PowerShot SD870 IS and have been very happy with this camera; much better than the Nikon’s we have had.</p>
<p>Costco has $60 off the Samsung WB210 starting later this week, but I can’t find a review online at my normal review sites. It is a touch screen camera and looks cool, but my concern is how clear the pictures are. </p>
<p>Before our current phones, we always chose a Samsung over the others as we had great luck with them. I am hoping Samsung cameras are made as well. Does anyone have good luck with Samsung cameras?</p>
<p>canon cameras almost always have the best picture quality for the money you spend. samsung camera picture quality is good. sony cameras’ qualities is good but you can get it for cheaper if you buy canon. just stay away from olympus point and shoot because those cameras have slow shutter speed which lead to poor picture qualities. touch screen can be a problem because its a camera so you have high chance of accidentally pressing something you dont want to.</p>
<p>I plan to take a look at the Samsung at Costco this weekend; it isn’t in the store yet. I will also see what is available in the Canon with the features and price I want. We bought the last 2 Canons at Costco, and will find a camera this time around from their also. It is usually my goal to buy electronics and high ticket items from Costco whenever possible. If I purchase the Samsung and we really don’t like it, back it will go!!</p>
<p>I just bought canon PowerShot ELPH 500 HS. It took me more than 2 hours to research and compare it with Nikon COOLPIX S9100. Both have HD 1080p movies. I chose canon because it has better pictures and movies in low light. Canon has 18x optical zoom but I guess I don’t use this feature often. Canon has touch screen and I don’t have to remember how to use the control knobs. I used to have a sony and the control knob was hard to turn, especially when dust or sand settle in. I don’t worry much about the damage of the touch screen. Most of the cell phones have touchscreen now and it seems to be OK.</p>
<p>^Correction: Nikon has 18x optical zoom.</p>
