Re: No manual control

Well I can still adjust exposure, ISO, color, white balance, so its not a deal-breaker. It would be nice to have manual control, Canon could have easily made a 330HS with Tv,Av,& M, but they knew it would hurt the premium lines and thats where they make more money. But I do have the SX260 for the manual control, while not quite as sharp as the 330, it's still pretty decent. Its too bad I can't recommend the SX280, it does seem better IQ-wise but that battery problem is a deal breaker since I do shoot video. I'm hoping the folks at CHDK eventually come out with a version for the 330HS, so I could control shutter speed. But you can control it with ISO, if I want a slower speed I'll just keep the ISO at 80, which works great on blurring moving water in the shade. For times when I want a faster speed, I up the ISO to 800. Its not as good as Tv but it's effective.
