Comments about Canon Canon A1200 PowerShot Digital Camera (Silver):
I love the simple controls and the VIEWFINDER on this great camera. As a person who grew up with viewfinders, I find this essential when outside in bright sun. I use it for outdoor shots of little league and it works great. Best digital camera for the money.
