I have gone through numerous digital cameras. Some are quite intuitive, others make absolutely no sense to me. I am currently sporting the latter -- Canon SX600HS. I cannot for the life of me figure out how to change settings, and end up calling their tech support for the simplest things. I do have to say they have great tech support. On the other hand, what is the use of having a 'flower' button on the back side that apparently does nothing that I can easily figure out (usually that would be the macro setting). Sheesh. I don't use a cell phone, so that's not an option. I'm ready to toss this thing out the window. On the plus side, it does take good photos when and if I can ever get the settings right. I usually just leave it on full automatic and 'point and hope'. I'm getting too old and cranky for all this technology angst... Rant over.
