I got my camera in January and have been using it frequently ever since. I am a snow skier and a scuba diver, so I also have the waterproof casing for underwater pictures!!!! Its a great combo!!!! Love the dusk setting...especially for snow scenes!!!! The underwater shots are REMARKABLE CLEAR!!!
Lot of camera for a reasonable price!!!!



5 out of 5 stars A great camera!   July 29, 2010

I bought this camera for my daughter's 15th birthday after many hours of on-line shopping. She took it to London for two weeks on vacation and it took great pictures in all kinds of lighting situations. The battery life is excellent - although we had a backup battery she only needed to use it a couple of times. This has to be one of the best point and shoot cameras available, and the price was amazingly low.


2 out of 5 stars Nice size, but picture quality is very poor   July 19, 2010

I was impressed when I first got the camera (next day using prime). I was a little bummed when I realized it didn't have any internal memory. Should have researched that more closely. No issue, I ran out and got another card. Once I started taking pictures, I expected that this easy to use camera would produce high quality images. Not so.

When set on Auto, conditions had to be perfect to get a good quality shot. It over exposed faces and objects in the sun and objects further away were grainy. When I changed the setting to "Kids and Pets" (the setting for moving objects) I was hopeful I could capture the kids in motion. All blurry. Not one came out clearly.

I'm just disspointed because I wanted a small, simple camera that would make it easy for my family to capture moments without having to lug around a larger camera with complicated features. I returned this camera b/c for almost $200 I believe I should be able to get a camera that can do that for me.

I'll keep looking.

So far the camera seems to be great. Had a few blurry pictures to start, but discovered it was my technique, not the camera. Would like to have a view finder, as high lighting can make the screen hard to use.

I have not used the audio/video feature yet, so I can't review that yet.

On the picture taking/quality etc., I was recently at my nieces wedding- after seeing the quality and ease of use with my Canon, everyone let me take the majority of the pictures and downloaded from my camera to their computers.

They were impressed with the sharp image, stability, color and so was I.

I think Canon got some converts.

This camera did not come with memory cards, and I did not buy them when I purchased my Canon, as Amazon had suggested. It would have been easier.

Also, this was my first purchase through Amazon. I was very happy with the process and fast delivery.
