Mientras los telefonillos lo permitan las compactas sencillas aún tienen derecho a la vida, aunque el asedio es continuo, continúa, y continuará.
Hoy, Steve’s Digicams publica su análisis a fondo de estas sobrevivientes. Se trata de la Canon PowerShot ELPH 130 IS que se puede comprar por unos 200 dólares. Hey, es sencilla, pero es Canon, lo digo por el precio.
