I’m torn, and you have until Thursday to help me decide which camera to buy. The options are entirely equivalent, except for the following:
| Sony Cybershot W50 | Canon IXUS 60 |
|---|---|
| - Cheaper (by $50) - Sexier (in black) - Better day shots - Better battery life (390 shots vs. 160 shots) | - Cheaper memory (SD) - Better night shots - Fancier functions (Colour Highlight, Colour Swap, Stitch Assist) |
| Sample Images | Sample Images |
| Specs & Image of Camera | Specs & Image of Camera |
| Side-by-side Specs |
Choices, choices. I’m leaning towards the Sony because of the battery life and better day shots, as for really good night shots you’d need a tripod anyway. Buying the Canon would definitely mean buying a spare battery ($70), because 150 shots or so go fast with digital sightseeting.
Which would you pick?
