For example, the positioning of the buttons around the dial changed quite a bit.

Would you see the benefit of the zoom or would you prefer to keep the pixel number higher?

Now I wonder if I should send the 960 back and get the 970 instead. The price is mostly identical, my SD card works anyway. What I found in the stats: 970 has more zoom (5x instead of 3x), less MB (10 instead of 12), smaller CCD sensor, and some other weird stuff I don't what its about. More zoom: Good Less Megapixel: Well, 12 is too much anyway, good. Smaller sensor: Bad, in theory, not sure if it actually matters Anyone any experience with those two? Is it worth switchting (as long as I get my money back for the 960)? I bought the IXUS 960 IS last week, not noticing that the 970 was out.

Smaller sensor: Bad, in theory, not sure if it actually matters

Anyone any experience with those two? Is it worth switchting (as long as I get my money back for the 960)?
