We have a Canon Rebel XT with a telephoto lens which has IS (Image Stabilization). I'm not the most steady hand so having IS is a great feature. I like using the telephoto lens since I then don't have to step into the garden beds to take pics. I'm still trying to learn all the bells and whistles the camera has on it. I really like using it for the daylily photos.

We also have a Canon Powershot with IS which is my point and shoot, no fuss camera. Small and convenient.
