Default What camera do you have?

I am doing some research on compact digital cameras. I am wondering what type you have and how would you rate it?

Are you looking for P&S or SLR?

I am looking for a point and shoot. I have a SLR and I am looking to purchase a compact camera that takes quality pictures.

I think as long as the P&S camera has a macro setting and a minimum of 8 MP you can get reasonable results.

I have had a few Canon S series P&S cameras and they seem to hugely exceed other similarly priced P&S cameras. I started off about 4 years ago with their lowest model the S100. It was great, but it was stolen. I now have a Canon IXY DIGITAL 55, which is the Japanese version of the S400. I bought it used off a Japanese guy for $200.

All the photos that you ever see me post are taken with this camera.
