[pct-l] saving your pictures

[pbaily at webuniverse.net (Phil Baily)]

The Canon A520 is a 4 megapixel camera that fits in my pocket and uses AA
batteries. It has lots of options to set if you want to get into that; I
haven't yet. I was very happy with photos I got hiking in New Zealand in
February. (It may have been replaced by a newer model.)

> Which cameras to people take on the hike? I have a Canon 350D (aka Rebel
XT), which takes nices pics but is far too big and bulky. I'm looking for
something lightwieght, at least 4Mp and can run on regular batteries that I
can buy along the way. Suggestions?
