best compact camera for under $250 CDN?
What’s the best digital camera I can get for under $250?
Last year, I purchased the Canon SD1000, and I was really happy with it, but I lost it!
I’m looking for something similar. Easy to use, can fit in my pocket and take great pictures.
What do you recommend, and why?
Thanks
