 Good and Easy July 28, 2010

Perfect product.. Canon make picture taken way too easy. Auto, point and shot, that's all folks
Great camera for the price July 24, 2010

This camera has great features and it is easy to use them. I have learned to use the auto setting with the flash off and for most situations with decent light (direct/indirect) the picture comes out very good. the flash does suck the life out of batteries. We traveled to the Grand Canyon took 500 pix with rechargeable batteries (once recharged)and now we have memories that will last a lifetime
 Picture quality is fantastic... Battery life is pathetic... Win/Lose Situation. July 23, 2010
Erika Weber (Cincinnati, OH)
I bought this camera last October when my purse was stolen and I lost my Nikon camera. I had heard so many great things about the picture quality from Canon cameras and figured, why not, I'll give it a try. I got it on sale and couldn't pass it up. Oh how I wish I'd just gotten another Nikon.
The battery life on this camera is absolutely pathetic. I have to change the battery every 3 days or so, and that's when using the camera sparingly. I don't take a large number of videos or keep the camera on for long periods of time. In fact, I try to rarely use it now BECAUSE of the battery life. I take a picture or two, turn it off. The batteries in my Nikon wouldn't need to be changed but once every few weeks if that, and I was using that camera nonstop at that time.
For that reason, I give it 1 star... the only reason I upped it to 2 stars is because the picture quality IS truly great. I can't complain at all about the quality of the pictures or videos that I've taken. Normally that would out-weigh any other issue because I bought it FOR the quality of the pictures, but the battery life is so bad that I have to make sure I keep 3 and 4 sets of extra batteries for times where I MAY want to take a ton of pictures or long videos. I took it to the zoo on new batteries and was out of a camera within an hour of being there. That's is unacceptable in my opinion. I will likely be getting another Nikon by Christmas-time. If all you care about is the quality of the pictures, this camera is for you. But if you need a user-friendly (interface, battery life) camera, I don't suggest this one.
Nice Camera July 20, 2010
Carlyn Miller (Bloomfield Hills, MI)
This camera gives you excellent pictures for a point and shoot. Easy to hold and zoom. I really like Canon, I have several of the A80's and A95's that when we had a problem with them Canon repaired them at no cost. You can't say enough for a company that stands behind their product like Canon does.
Get it while you can! July 20, 2010

This is last non-SLR digital camera available with a view finder (that I'm aware of). Everyone complains about how hard it is to see their photo subject on the view screen of digital cameras, especially in bright sunlight. Despite this, camera manufacturers have removed view finders from current models. I bought this Canon as a gift for my non-technically inclined sister and she loves it. She calls it her "duh" camera. She says it is so intuitive and easy to use that you'd have to be an idiot to take a bad picture. The view screen is large and easy to see indoors ... and for outdoor shots she has the beloved but endangered VIEW FINDER. Buy this camera before it's history.
