What is your fav. point and shot camera??

[pigletto]

My daughter is in graphic design and swears by Canon for picture color and quality for her at home point and shoot. We just helped her grandmother pick one out, her main objective was taking pictures of the wildlife in her backyard so wanted a good zoom. We ended up with this one:

THIS ONE!!!
I got gift cards for Christmas and wanted a new camera. I posted here and combed through the recent threads on several boards for reviews. The picture quality is incredible and people comment on it all the time. Price point and ease of use were perfect for me, and I love the 20X zoom. Seriously I can give this camera a ringing endorsement.

ETA) It says what it is in the Amazon link.. but to put it in the thread ..it's the Canon SX260HS

I should have researched her first. Just bought a Coolpix today and was very disappointed. Any one have model numbers of the cameras they have?
Thanks

What model did you buy? I just bought the Nilon Coolpix S6500 at Costco for $179. It shoots pics and HD video and has a wifi setting so it uploads pics to my phone and ipad and I can upload to facebook. I need to experiment more with it, but so far so good.

I've been using Sony Cybershots for years (have upgraded several times) and I've always been very happy.

Sony Cyber shot waterproof. It is drop proof and very durable.

The first point and shoot I ever purchased was a Canon Elf. Didn't last very long and was just okay. After that I got a Sony Cybershot. Again, just okay. But now I have the Nikon Coolpix s8200 and it's great. Easy to use, compact and takes great pictures.

I have the coolpix S3500. Pictures are blurred and color isn't acurrate. I thought I was getting a good midrange camera but I think I'm going to step up to a better one.
