Anyone use one of the canon camera\'s, like a a630 or a700? My Nikon broke and I\'m considering one of those for mini photography as well as general family shots.
I bought my wife the Canon A520 Powershot. It is great for travel - portable and takes nice landscape and portrait shots. I haven\'t tried it for mini photography, and am not sure how good its macro function is. I use a Canon Digital Rebel with a macro lens for mini shots.
I use a Canon A75 - several years old, and it takes very good mini shots. Lots of features too, I imagine the newer ones are a lot better!
My advice: take a mini with you to the camera store, to test the various cameras\' macro abilities. Apparently lots of cameras claim to have macro but it\'s quite poor.
