Just would like people's views of the A710 IS and A640, especially from people who have had experience with Canon cameras. Currently shooting with an Olympus C8080/Inon D2000 but would like a more compact rig.
I've also heard that the shutter lag for Canon equipment is much better than Olympus. That, and the focus, which I have had to work around a lot.
Have a SS200 that I've only used with my Nikonos and am wondering how best to sync it with digital. Was going to try out the Ikelite slave unit and set the flash to slave. I can do this with the C8080 but would like to know if it can be done with the Canons.
Appreciate the advice.
ps. Any recommendation for a good Elf series? My spouse has an old 3.1 Mp Elf, is more into taking uw snapshots and I'd like to get her something better. Reason - I hate to admit, but some of her shots are better than mine. She has a good eye for framing.
