Hey Chris, thanks for the reply. I have just visited Amazon and found that someone reviewed the camera and rated it 1 star with the following comment...

'Firstly I have to say I am a Canon girl. I would always buy Canon, but this latest purchase has made question that. I bought this camera to replace my old Canon 'point & press' which was 3 years old (what can I say I love cameras) The A3300 was very slow to take a picture (slower than my old camera) and the quality was not anywhere near as good as my old Canon. We took over 100 pictures trying various different settings to try to improve speed/clarity but nothing worked. As I said I was very disappointed and have returned the camera within hours of receiving it. '

The only camera I have previously owned was a small point and shoot with no more than 5 megapixels and no real redeeming features and now want to get a camera for my travels around Europe and for starting university. I was really impressed with the features and stats listed with the Powershot A3300 IS but I don't really know what is best bang for the buck. Should I still make the purchase, as there are no real professional reviews, or find a camera in the same price range?
