My last SLR is/was a Pentax MS Super (Camera of the year in 1983 IIRC) and since then it's all been point and shoot.
She Who Must Be Obeyed has decreed that we should buy ourselves a "good camera" for Christmas this year. She spotted this at Costco (same deal is available on Canon's web site).
I guess the questions I have are
1. Is this a good deal
2. Is there anything better out there in the same price range (<$1000).
Is this a better choice
I intend to use the camera for mostly family stuff, but when I was younger (ME Super days) I liked to think I was pretty good at shooting old cars and the likes.
PS I still have the ME Super, but it hasn't taken a shot since I bought my first digital (Nikon Coolpix 990) back in 2001.
