"GOOD ALL AROUND CAMERA"
NICE SIZE CAMERA IN BETWEEN MY SX 110 AND MY ...
EASY TO USE, BIG 3in LCD, GOOD TRUE TO COLOR PICTURE QUALITY, 6x OPTICAL ZOOM THAT I GOT SOME NICE BEAR PICTURES WITH IN CADES COVE IN THE SMOKY MOUNTIANS
THE ONLY THING I DO NOT LIKE ON THIS CAMERA IS THAT IN SMART AUTO MODE INDOORS IT LIKES 640 iso TO MUCH BUT IN ANY OF THE OTHER MODES 250 iso IS ITS STANDRRD. MY CANON SX 110 AND A 480 BOTH FAVOUR 250 iso IN AUTO MODE IN THAT SAME ROOM
A GREAT COMPACT CAMERA

Canon PowerShot A2100 IS
I just bought it. Love it for the pictures produce from this mini digicam. It is compact, but still easy to handle, not too small like some IXUS. So, it is replaced my 40D in some occasions when DSLR not suitable. And, yes, because...... it's BLACK :)
Maybe Canon can use better "plastic" to A-Series Bodies. Some material that Nikon used on their D5000, D90, will be pleased. Or metal based, just like Sony W2xx, Fuji F50/F60fd, that won't add cost too much
