So i've had this Kodak V550 5mp point and shoot for a little under 2 years now, and i've decided that its time to upgrade to a newer compact/mid-size camera.

I was looking at this new Kodak Z1275.



~$250

Here are some basic specs:
-12mp (I realize thats way more than i need, but i plan on shooting at 6-9 most of the time).
-5x optical zoom, 5x digital.
-Pretty good lens.
-High ISO mode (but i've read that it gets pretty grainy towards higher ISO).
-Also, it takes HD video
-Takes AA's

Everything i've read about it is good except for the fact that it eats AA's pretty fast, as in 70-80 shots.

Anyone have this particular camera or want to suggest another?

I checked out a few Powershots, but they don't seem to have many manual settings.

I bought the z1275. It's ballin'. Get it if you're looking for a mid-size with alot of manual features.
