I have a Canon EOS Rebel that dates to 2003. It barely works and won't even focus anymore with certain lenses. I own a Canon point and shoot as well and it works way better than the SLR or a Fuji mid-size I use once in a while. I didn't even bring my SLR up here this year.
I am trading them all in for a Olympus Pen camera next month. My husband has one. It takes the most amazing photographs and my husband has NO photography skills whatsoever. It is a nice mid-size camera that is easily taken just about everywhere. THere are lots of lenses for it as well.
I have to say, though, that the best pictures I have taken (outdoors during the day, anyway) were with my iPhone.
