Hummm, I have the A700, my gf has an SD30 Ixus, and my Mom has another Elph (not sure which one) and they all work almost exactly the same. The only real differences seem to be in how to get to the menus, but the menus themselves seem to be pretty much the same. What all do you want to know?

I have an Ixus 750 and a Powershot S3 IS, both excellent cameras for photographing fish.

well i just wanted to know if there were any manual settings that work best. i tried a few, some look better than others but not great yet. i'll keep on tinkering w/ it, it could be the lighting as well.

akskirmish, you have some really nice quality photos as well... im guessing it is really my lighting then since we have basically the same cameras.

Just give me a sec...
