Daughter Loves It!!!
on March 20, 2010
Posted by: AJ
from Hoover, AL
This was purchased as a Christmas gift for my 11 year old daughter. She has enjoyed using it, and has quickly been able to learn how to use most of the camera's features. Both the Quick Get Started Instructions and the bigger Instruction Booklet have answered any questions she has had so far. The quality of the photos she has taken have been great. So far, she has mostly used the camera in Auto mode. She has also used Night on a few shots. She hasn't had any problems with Red Eye on her interior photos. Overall, this has been a great camera for her to learn with, and to move forward with her love of photography.
Pros: Nice features/settings, excellent image quality, Lightweight/Portable, Simple controls/menu, easy to use
I would recommend this to a friend!

Might be a best seller

Camera has the potential to be a big hit. Can't find to much wrong with operations of camera. Photo download needs work on color correcting (fine tooning options). And deleating pictures should have been done off the download program not the camera memory.
Pros: easy to use, Simple controls/menu, Nice features/settings, Bright LCD, excellent image quality, Good Low-Light Performance, Lightweight/Portable, good battery life, wife loves the colors, view finder a plus
Cons: Complicated controls/menu, picture card delete on camera, options when correcting color needed
I would recommend this to a friend!

Excellent Camera

from Waco, Texas
This is my 5th digital camera. It is very easy to use. The controls are very simple to understand. I have no trouble with battery life since I use rechargeable batteries. The pictures are crisp and clear. Pictures come out great even in low light. The camera works very well and with ease when downloading into the computer. I use iPhoto and it quickly downloads the pictures there. Everything on this camera is a joy to use. I have had some camera's you needed a law degree to operate. But this one is a great.
Pros: good battery life, Good Low-Light Performance, Nice features/settings, excellent image quality, durable, Bright LCD, Lightweight/Portable, Simple controls/menu, easy to use

What a piece of junk
on September 28, 2010

The camera takes decent pictures but IT EATS BATTERIES. I average 6 to 10 pictures on a set of batteries. This is the worst Digital Camera I have ever owned. You have lost my business Canon.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
