New Camera

After much deliberation and research (and quite possibly reading every available customer review on the internet), I have decided on the Canon S5 IS as my next camera. I thought, from the onset of my search, that this was the camera I would choose but wanted to make a semi-educated decision. I spent 2 hours last Saturday at Wal-Mart playing with their selection of cameras, four of which were on my "camera of interest" list. There were several features about each camera that I liked but the Canon S5 IS was the most complete package for my needs. The sales people at Wal-Mart were not very knowledgeable and/or helpful so when they were not willing to price-match, I thanked them for letting me play and informed them that I would be purchasing the camera from an online seller for $100 below their price. Since I paid less than I expected for the camera, I splurged and also bought a wide angle lens and filter kit to go with it. The hard part is now waiting for everything to arrive. I can't wait to start experimenting and playing!!
