Q. which one is better? olympus stylus 740 or canon ixus 65? I cant decide between these two. I like both designs! Help!!
Answer
Canon camera perform very well across the board.
Check out this review of the Olympus Stylus 710 (a very similar camera to the 740):
http://www.dcresource.com/reviews/olympus/stylus_710-review/index.shtml
Also, check out the user reviews of the two types of camera.
The Canon gets high marks from people who bought it:

The Olympus has several models of this camera that are very similar. Almost no one on that site bothered to buy and review any of them. The one guy who did, seemed to regret it (unfortunately, he didn't bother to mention why):
http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/read_opinions.asp?prodkey=oly_stylus750
If you muck around on that site and compare user reviews for people who bought Canons vs people who bought Olympus, you notice a pattern. The Canon people rate their cameras much higher (and there are a hell of alot more of them). Something to think about when deciding which brand to buy.

Canon PowerShot SD990IS Digital Camera Review?
Q. Is there anyone who could tell anything about Canon PowerShot SD990IS? I want to buy this digital camera but first I'd like to hear a couple of reviews
Answer
I got the early version of this camera in Japan, sold as the IXY 3000 IS and am head over heels in love; this replaces an SD800IS which was a long time favorite. The new one got my attention for the whopping 14.7 MP as I have been using this for taking panoramas on a GigaPan rig - [...]-- and more pixels count for much there. Plus there is the full manual (focus and exposure modes). And then there was the thrill of getting a new camera a few weeks before it was available in the US.
Mine is set up with an 8GB SD HC card, which feels infinite.
I've been very happy with the quality, and I do a lot of macro shots, posting hundreds on my flickr site [...]
The new QuickShot mode is nice- to shoot through viewfinder where you want the quickest response time. And a bonus is a long overlooked feature- an on screen battery level indicator. There is a small button where you can instantly go to view mode, rather than flipping the shooting mode. Face focussing is very handy. Video quality is superb. Having the camera stitch mode (used for getting good overlap for single row panoramas) on the presets selection is great. And w00t! It uses the same NB-5L battery, so I now have more spares.
My negatives are minor- the black style is slick, but the plastic shell feels a little cheap/flimsy, but the camera is sturdy. My biggest gripe is the latch on the battery/SD card compartment comes open easily in your bag or your pocket; the one on the SD800 never popped open on its own. The latch for the USB dock too is odd, it is hard to figure out where the hinge part is, and I always feel like I am going to do it wrong and break it off.
Spinning the lower selection wheel takes some dexterity; so setting the aperture and f/stops in manual mode is going to take some time to be a smooth process.
I've never bought a camera just because it has a large resolution, but I am shooting 4416x3312, better than my first generation Digital Rebel.
I am in love with this little camera!
