When I knew I wanted to get a new camera, I had to, first, decide on a brand and then seek out the models. I wanted a Sony for its lovely design but features still come first.
I had wanted a Sony T700 but it wasn't recommended by ***** (named removed to protect privacy)
Also, if I were to choose a color for the Sony compact camera series, I'd have chosen red! But horror horror, the above photo is the 'red' version for that series.
So I had to make way for Canon (being well-known (I supposed) for their cameras). I had to decide on two models which had the latest technology of DIGIC 4. Frankly, if you ask me what's the difference between DIGIC III and DIGIC 4, I absolutely have no idea.
I had to make a decision if I wanted to 14.7MP with 3.7x optical zoom or a 10.0MP with a 4.0x optical zoom..
Canon IXUS 870 IS equipped with 10.0MP and 4.0x optical zoom, oh and it comes with wide angle lens, which made it special!
When I went to stores to see the real thing, I was totally bought over by Canon IXUS 870 IS in Gold! It looks so fucking chio can!!!!!!
Furthermore, when Teck Wei knew I wanted a digital camera as a birthday present from em05, he recommended me Canon SD880 IS.
I was like "What Canon SD880 IS?! I've never heard of it! There's no such thing leh, only EOS, PowerShot or IXUS.."
Then he gave me a URL.
OMFG!!!! I'm so gonna get Canon IXUS 870 IS.. Have not got it from Sitex cos I figured (with consultation from Teck Wei) that the deal's not worth.. so I'm getting it from other sources within two weeks time (I HOPE!!)
Canon IXUS 870 IS... HERE I COME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
