The low-light performance is not-great, but its biggest feature for me is definitely the compact size. It's smaller than my wallet; the light mass and slender bulk means I'm much more likely to have it on me at any given time. Even if the individual snaps are suckier, I make up for it in volume.</p> I bought another SD600, on Amazon.com.

I picked up a Canon PowerShot S60 there refurbished last term for around $180. You can get some sweet deals on cameras with larger sensors and stronger flashes if you shop around. The S60 for example does very well in low light because of its CCD size. If you want great video performance, a large LCD, or a snappy UI, of course, an older camera might not do.</p> Did you buy the camera at B&H by any chance?
