Canon PowerShot SX20IS 12.1MP Digital Camera with 20x Wide Angle Optical Image Stabilized Zoom and 2.5-inch Articulating LCD Review

I just traded in my Kodak V550 to get serious about learning how to take great photos, and I am so glad I did. I did a lot of research to try and find a camera that I could learn from and still took great photos, and the SX20 IS was the winner, even though I really wanted a DSLR. I made a great choice! I'm still getting the hang of the camera, but have turned out so many great photos that I could NEVER get with my Kodak. The HD video is a great feature to have with my growing toddler and my desire to capture her precious moments. The weight is fine for me and doesn't affect my rating for it's portability. I'll be travelling soon, and I am so glad that I chose this over the DSLR because of well portability! Can't wait to learn how to use this camera at its FULL potential!
