Another Camera Thread...

[muck]

Im in the market for a new camera and am currently considering a Canon PowerShot Pro1 model. I have read the reviews at www.dpreview.com and done a fair bit of checking around but would like to hear some thoughts from those with first hand experience or with a fair bit of photography know how. Suggestions for other models instead would be fine too.

I'd love to get a DSLR personally but that will have to wait till further down the road. I need a camera right now that you can view the LCD to take the photo, have a decent macro mode, as well as be compact enough to take on a 5-week backpacking trip to Europe. Im leaning toward a "DSLR-Like" model but am not stuck on it.
