Which canon camera?

[frazze]

Im planning to buy my first digitalcamera soon. I am thinking about sd300 or sd 400. Is sd400 worth the extra money? Is there any other camera similar to this two that may be worth looking at as well?

I also wonder how big memory card i will need. I want to make some videos. Is 512 mb enough or is 1024 mb recommended?

Is it possible to zoom while making video with the sd 400?

I hope someone can answer this questions pretty soon.
Thank you very much

I have the SD300, which I felt was worth a small amount of extra money over the SD200. Is another MP worth it? Don't know, what are you planning on doing with the camera? I don't plan on printing larger than 8x10, and I use it mostly for web use, so I wouldn't go for the SD400 myself.

If you plan on a lot of video, get a 1Gig card. The difference in price is only $20-30, and you won't have to worry about running out of space.

If the SD400 is like the SD300 (and I'm pretty sure it is) you cannot use the zoom while shooting video. You can zoom to a desired level before starting, but once the video is rolling you cannot change.
