Ended up buying the Nikon D3100 yesterday, $449. A few more bucks for a backpack, memory card and extra battery.
Took about 175 pics at the cookout today. Mostly multiple shots of the nieces and nephews playing on the slip and slide.
Camera is great. Right out of the box it's intuitive. Super easy to use and understand. Standard scenes and settings are great and turn out great pictures. So glad I went with this. Not ripping cannon at all. It was, literallya50/50deal.. Love this camera.
Thousand times easier than our old point and shoot. Though, I already want a zoom lens damnit
