Yeah, you can zoom optically in video mode. I do in this video. Max zoom photos aren’t as high quality as photos taken at a normal zoom, but I never actually expected them to be. However, I still find them to be pretty good as long as you keep a steady hand–otherwise they may be a little blurry even with the image stabilization.

Also, how big of a SD card will this camera take and what type exactly is best?

If by “how big” you mean, how much space can be on the memory card, I don’t think it matters. Mine is only 512 MB, but I know for sure you can use ones with plenty of space. If you mean actually sizewise, it just takes your standard SD.

I meant size as in GB’s. I just read online at Cannon that its 2GB SD, and up to 32GB SDHC.

Oh, I’m not sure. My advice would be to listen to what Canon has to say, since they’re the experts.

Yeah, I have the same problem with mine. Quicktime pro lets you convert the videos to avi or something else that you can use with movie maker. There are a bunch of videos that explain how you can get it for free

Can you put the movie directly on to youtube after loading it on the computer? or do you have to change the format?
fivecentlemonade says:
February 23rd, 2009 7:13 pm
You can upload it right to youtube. You only need to change the format if you want to edit it in windows movie maker.

can you take pictures while recording a video ?
fivecentlemonade says:
April 22nd, 2009 8:56 am
Nope, unfortunately it doesn’t. That’s really one of the only things I don’t like about the camera. You have to convert to .avi or something else before using movie maker.
You can do it with Quicktime Pro. There are a lot of videos on youtube telling you how to get it for free if you want.
