Anyone have any opinions on the Canon A650 (or even 620-640)? Specifically the 650 since it has the Digic III processor instead of Digic II. I realized these models are discontinued. There's not much info on dpreview.com. I am looking to upgrade from the A95.

seems to have decent reviews, but it's old and clunky. For Canon P&S, I've got the 880IS, and I highly recommend it. I think it can be gotten for $200-250. It has the DIGIC 4.

I can deal with old and clunky. I currently use the A95, which fits that description. I really like the screen that swings out and tilts. As far as I can tell the A650 was the last model made like that....plus it would be an upgrade from Digic I to Digic III. I don't really want a newer model...although the 880IS looks really nice. I'd prefer something older that I don't mind if it gets a little beaten up.

thats the camera I have. its over 3 years old and takes good quality photos. Reviews back then were very good
for video though - its not that great
