I found a deal on a S1 IS and got it.Should be here next week.I'm not going to keep it as long I did my last one.I figure I'll keep it a while sell it and upgrade to a dslr.Unless the S1 turns out to be a better camera than I expect,which is possible.Still technology goes up and prices go down,so who knows.Maybe when they replace the eos 300 I can find one cheap.I'll post a review in a few weeks and some samples.
