"Small and good quality, but not much difference from the past..."
Pros: Size, quality and functions galore
Cons: Poor manual picture quality
Summary: So I lost my Canon Elph S230 and had to buy a new one. It was a no brainer to pick up another elph, because I loved my last one so much. Low and behold my lost camera showed up on my doorstep and gave me a chance to compare the two. This new model is substantially thinner and a bit shorter (~1/8"). The shot isn't that much better though. I thought 6 megapixel would blow away a 3.2 megapixel camera, but when you zoom in on photoshop, the quality is hard to discern. Nice video options and I like the high ISO800 feature. If you don't have a camera yet, this is a sweet deal. If your looking to upgrade, I would hold off.

I'm curious why you would hold off if you are upgrading? Is there a better one coming down the pike?

Sometimes you need to change the resolution. High megapixel cameras let you choose how much detail you get in your pictures and your camera might not be working at full capacity. I upgraded from 3.2 to 7 megapixels and there IS a difference. Also check what the ISO is set at. High ISO's make pictures grainier, especially with smaller cameras. Check your settings. If you're still not seeint a big difference in performance, there's something seriously wrong with your new camera.
