I bought the Canon sx230 recently...the flash hardly went off on automatic, quite a few of my picture came out dark..ex. on the porch or in a garage with the door open, where a flash was needed. I have 14 days to decide if I should bring it back. I thought about buying the Canon Elph 300, but really wanted a p&s with mega zoom. When I talked to the salesman he told me that Canon sx230 is much better then the smaller P&S, he said it has a very sensitive sensor & you shouldn't need the flash in those situations. He said and in those times they do come out dark switch it to P mode with flash.
For those of you who use the sx230 have you run into the same problems? I called Canon, before I return it, they told me to send it to them & they would take a look at it. In that case I might as well return it. Please tell me if you run into the same issues, do you always shoot in P mode when you need the flash? Thanks!
Also are there any other recommedations of cameras,p&shoot w/mega zoom,I should look at?
