Old Canon Powershot S3-IS?
I have an old Old Canon Powershot S3-IS. In the last few months I have noticed that I am getting noise on the photos. Can you wear out these cameras? Time to upgrade?
Thanks to all of you who know so much more than I do, and I love looking at all of your photos.

Check your ISO settings via the button on the back. It's probably set to 800.

Yes they can wear out, but it's usually dead pixels you'll start seeing. Checking the ISO setting sounds like a good suggestion to me.

BTW...I don't know how close you are located to the Cape? Our DS goes to the Mass. Maritime Academy. He is loving it. Good college for him.

I am about 2 miles from MMA. Glad he is liking the school! It seems like a great place for kids to earn a degree and get some nice travel in as well.
As far as the camera, I have no idea. Just wanted to chime in on MMA. I had an old S2IS and it still takes great pics but after only a few shots it says the batteries are dead when they aren't.
