    I'm in love with a swivel screen but she's getting old

    Hi Everyone I have a Canon Powershot A630 and I really love the swivel screen for photographing flowers without lying flat out or snapping from angles not possible without the swivel. My camera still works well but I have been thinking of upgrading to a newer model with maybe a few more...
