The Canon A610 and A620 have been getting raves by owners of the camera.
They have a 2.0 inch LCD that tilts and swivels.
If you want a larger LCD (2.5 inch), look at the A700.
That LCD does not tilt and swivel.
This camera has a 6X optical zoom.

Greetings,
I am planning to buy a new digital camera this summer. (My last camera is ancient and used film. SO you would be right in guessing that I am new in this) My budget is anywhere up to the 350s about. I would like something pocketable but doesnt need to be highly compact. I despise small LCDs and I want something with a good LCD with a optical view finder. I have done some research and found the best brands to be CANON and NIKON. Also would like decent features. Any suggestions?
