My 2002 Canon PowerShot S330 has been become aged for 3 years and half today. Lagging shutter and cycle times. The longevity for the Lihon batteries has deceased - least two hours to use. It's time for me to look the new digital camera. Here are feature list I would like to see:
- excellent battery
- no shutter lag
- high-end digital
- Canon brand name
- Reasonable price
The result: Canon PowerShot S2 IS. Why Canon? I had to stick with this brand name because I had old PowerShot S330, which I do not want to confuse myself for using different software application for two different brand names (example, Kodak, Sony, etc). S2 IS and S330 supports the same software, ease for me to upload new images through same Canon application software on my computer. Lastly, I have waterproof case for S330, it is best one I ever had for all-weather, very dirty place (such as muddy and dust), underwater and protect from damage.
I have been watching this model for four months to research all over the most trusted reviews for PowerShot S2 IS:
Digital Camera Resource Page
Imaging Resource
Digital Photography Review
Lets Go Digital
Megapixel.net

Also, the most important thing for me to watch: S2 IS uses AA batteries. The reviewer said the 2000 mAh NiMH rechargeable batteries can run up to eight hours. 2500 mAh can live up to 10 hours. Impressive. This is the reviewer's choice. Made in Japan.
I made my decision: I bought PowerShot S2 IS yesterday. I toyed and experiment around with this new camera, and posted some of them in my Flickr. I am very satisfied with this. It's just one day, kid!
