My Canon SD400 does this and I imagine other Canon models have the same
capability.

I'll probably take this camera to Philmont this summer -- it's extremely
small and light and takes pretty good pictures. The only downside is it uses
a proprietary (and expensive) battery, and it bothers my thrifty side to
have to buy two or three extra batteries that I may never use again. I'm
half tempted to buy a less-expensive camera that uses AAs, just to take to
Philmont.
