>>101233 The ELPHs offer basically no manual exposure controls. The PowerShot A-series cameras I have encountered all give you full manual controls.
If someone's not planning to take the effort to learn the technical side of photography and is just going to leave the thing on full-Auto the whole time (maybe switching scene modes or turning on the stupid special effects like sepia or selective-desaturation), the ELPH will be smaller, probably cheaper, and give you the same image quality as the A-series. If you want to set any of the exposure settings yourself, on the other hand, you're going to need an A-series.
From the description the OP gave, it didn't sound much like his girlfriend would mind the loss of manual controls.
