Canon SD1100 vs Kodak m1033 Preview
So, today I went to staples to print my last project of the semester, and while waiting, I was looking at cameras. I’ve been wanting to buy a camera for Europe, and I have been having some trouble when it comes to choosing what to buy. I want to buy a small camera, but something of decent quality. There were two cameras on sale that both fit my requirements better then others, and I couldn’t decide on what to get. When the Staples employee told me that you had 30 days to try cameras out, incase you don’t like them, I jumped at the idea and bought both. But, I am going to return one eventually, the question is, which one?
Canon Pros — Better aperture, faster startup time, and well, its a Canon
Kodak Pros: Bigger Screen (3″ as opposed to 2.5″), HD video recording
Looking at both the reviews, they have both gotten solid reviews, so really, its going to come down which one I like better, usability wise. They are both about the same size, size was a big factor for choosing my next camera, but it doesn’t help my decision between these two.
My next post will go into detail, and have some side by side comparisons of the two cameras.

For what it’s worth, I have a Canon SD 800 IS (which I suppose is a direct predecessor of the 1100). I like it a lot.
It takes really nice pictures: the image stabilization and colour reproduction are both good. The autofocus is probably as fast as my SLR.
If I was buying another compact, it would be Canon.
