Hi Sniper, is Canon SX260HS is upgrade of Canon SX230HS ? I'm new to camera too and been travelling a lot so decided to buy new cam for very newbie like me (easy to take photo at any situation especially during night time). GPS is the thing actually attracted me and if SX260HS is an upgrade for Canon SX230HS, i would get SX260HS instead. Would like to ask for you and other sifu bout this cam as it's new model, dont want regret later hehe. Cheers~
