Excerpt: I'm an amature photo shooter and I use the digit camera mostly to record daily life. The S80 from canon is relatively big in its body and heavier than the ELPH series...

Pros: Underwater mode & you can video underwater
Cons: Zoom - The many modes you have to go through and then the picture that you wanted captured is gone.
