Canon Powershot SD1200 IS Elph

[jcarter29]

I think this is the camera that I am going to go with unless someone can guide me otherwise.

And please don't direct me to dpreview.com...there is no review of it. I think it is pretty new to the market, hence no review.

I looked at several others and this seems to have the features I want (although now I can't remember if there is a fireworks mode) and the price is reasonable.

Can anyone comment on this specific camera or maybe the model before? Anyone compared this to the Sony Cybershot in real life?

Thanks
Kim

According to the Canon website it does have fireworks mode - my favorite thing on my Sony. I had a Canon Elph film camera and if the digital ones are as good I bet they're great. For me one thing it has going for it is it has a viewfinder. I just got a little Fujifilm Z33 WP waterproof camera so I can go on water rides and if it happens to rain and it only has the lcd - it's driving me nuts. I'm going to need lots of practice before September.
