This getting to be a little tiresome, Canon. I don’t want to write about your new cameras anymore. Someone call the waaambulance. The PowerShot ELPH line is getting even better with the addition of the SD950 IS and SD870 IS digis. The 950 is a full-body titanium 12.1-megapixel stud with a 3.7x optical zoom and 2.5-inch LCD. The 870 can only muster up 8-megapixels, but it has a 3.8x wide-angle zoom lens and 3-inch LCD. Both ELPH feature OIS, Advanced Face Detection, and DIGIC III processors.

The PowerShot SD950 IS Digital ELPH and SD870 IS Digital ELPH Cameras should hit stores in September. The 950 is priced at $449.99 and the 870, available in black and silver, will retail for $399.99. They both include a rechargeable battery pack, battery charger, 32MB MMC memory card, and software as well as USB interface cable, AV interface cables and wrist strap.

Sexy cameras indeed, although I think I’m going to go ahead and stick with the G9 simply for the Raw. You think you might write about the new lenses Canon announced too? ;p j/k

I’m in the market for a new Canon point-and-shoot digital camera. I currently have an EOS 10D which I love and a S500 which is great except for one thing, the 4-second shutter-lag. It makes the camera useless for shooting anything other than completely immobile objects.
If you manage to get your hands on all the cameras you’re reviewing today it would be really helpful if you’d comment on the shutter-lag for each of them. For me at least, that’s the most important piece of information I will consider when buying my next camera.

You make me laugh. First you guys go on and on and on and on and on and on about the iPhone, but when Canon comes out with their new cameras (what like 3 or 4?), you complain about how “tiresome” is is to write about them. Call the Waaambulance is right! I realize that Crunchgear is written by several writers, and so I don’t even remember who said what, but let me make this very clear to your staff:
