I’m thinking of buying a Canon Powershot SD750 silver for my girlfriend as a surprise. She had told me a few months ago that she wanted one. I could buy it for her , but the price is kind of steep at $299. I was wondering is there another digital camera that is just as good but a little bit less pricey? It could be $225 or less. I know she wants a camera that is slim, and that can fit into a pocket. Also she wants one that has a nice LCD screen to watch the previews, and has different picture modes. Any suggestions would help.

The Canon Powershot SD750 and SD1000 are almost identical cameras.
The main differences (other than a slightly different body), are…
SD750…3.0 LCD, no viewfinder.
SD1000…2.5 LCD, has a viewfinder.
My pick would be the SD1000, because it has the viewfinder (which is invaluable to have at times). Plus, it’s in your price range ($200-250).
Both have the same high res. LCD screen (230,000 pixels).
The SD750’s LCD is just slightly larger and that’s the only real reason it costs more.
good luck…
