Canon PowerShot ELPH 135 Preview - Steve's Digicams

Canon has announced three new inexpensive ELPH cameras. The most affordable model, the PowerShot ELPH 135 is virtually interchangeable from the $10-more expensive ELPH 140 IS, save for color choices and one feature: the ELPH 135 does not have built-in image stabilization. Otherwise, it's the same features

The Canon PowerShot Elph 135 has an appealing price tag, but for just $10 more you can get an identical model with image stabilization.
