Tech: Canon SD600

I bought my first digital camera, a Canon SD600. This is a 6 megapixel camera with a decent array of features - 16:9 support, ISO800-level sensitivity, 30fps 640x480 video. Intended as a midrange point-and-shoot/ultracompact camera, the SD600 takes pretty good pictures, though the ISO settings take some futzing around with to get good results. The video is very good, too - good enough to make internet pr0n.

The tiny viewfinder is pretty useless compared to the good 2.5" LCD, so if it's available, you might wanna spring for the slightly pricier SD630 (the SD630, BTW, is "Maria Sharapova's favorite camera" - until someone else pays her more money to endorse another camera :P). Here's a sampling of random pictures (they've been massively downsized in terms of jpeg quality, but you get the idea).

Taco!
