I am replacing a lost digital camera. I have done a lot of research and narrowed my choices down to the following three:

Canon A720
Canon SD850
Sony DSC-W90

Your reccommendations and comments are appreciated.

I suspect you can't go wrong with any of these cameras. I used the Canon SD800 on my recent trip and loved it. I really love the small size of the SD series. They slip in a pocket or are easy to carry in a small pack or purse. They are quick and easy to use. And they take great pictures.

What brand of camera do you currently have? If you have used Canon before, that might be an advantage since I've found it operations similar between the different Canon series.

Here are links to reviews on the cameras you are looking at. It might help others to give feedback.

I also noticed that all of these have image stabilization which I think is a great feature in these small cameras. I also have an old Canon G2 and I found the IS feature on the SD800 really helped the clarity of my pictures.

Thanks for your suggestions. To answer your question, I had a Sony DSC-P200 which left on a bus in England. I liked it well enough; they don't make them anymore and I'm happy to upgrade from 7.1 to 8 MP, I do enlarge my pictures quite a bit.
