Love the AA batteries and IS technology

Yes, it does make the camera about 50% bigger but I love the fact that it's powered by AA batteries and not lithium-ion.  If you use rechargeable batteries, it'll last you a good amount of time.  I travel to foreign countries a lot, so I find it much more convenient to just buy AA batteries than to find a power converter and carry a charger around. 

I also take a lot of nighttime pictures and I hate harsh flashes, so the IS technology is great.  It's not perfect (still a lot of blurry pictures), but a must-have feature.
