Best quality posts,
freshly delivered
Could one of you enthusiasts give me a quick breakdown on the significant differences between the SD4000IS and the SD1400IS? Obviously there is price and MP (I realize it's essentially insignificant.)

The most significant thing to me seems to be the low-light performance of the SD4000IS is superior to the 1400. One question I have is I noticed the high fstop on the 1400 is 5.9 vs only 5.3 on the 4000. Will this result in better performance by the 1400 in very bright situations? I live in the desert and the sun is absolutely brutal, so good performance in extremely bright situations would almost be preferable to good low-light performance.
