Best Camera i ever had
on May 22, 2016
Posted by: traveller

Had it with me on my year long worldtrip, it still works.
It felt down various times, Even out of the 3rd Floor onto concrete. It survived.
I went diving and it had no Problem until 15m meters deep.

Bought two, both failed to work very long.

We bought one of these for a trip to the Florida keys. I had read reviews that it was having issues with the LCD screen messing up or video footage having lines through it and being messed up, but I figured it didn't hurt to try since there were also great reviews.
Basically, while it worked, it was great. During our big trip to the reefs though, it started having all the same issues everyone else mentioned. It was such a bummer! That day we ordered a second one with overnight shipping so we could use one for the rest of the vacation. It continued to work for the rest of that vacation all the way through our second vacation 2 years later. By the third vacation though, it also ended up with the same problems.
This year we are again headed to the beach, so instead of buying this one, I am trying the newer D30. Here's to hoping it doesn't have any problems :)
My thought is that maybe the salt water causes problems that Canon hasn't thought of? If you decide to purchase the camera, just know that it would be good to purchase it with a warranty. The first one broke a few months after purchasing. The other lasted about three years and then started having issues.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Best little camera!

I've owned this camera for about 5 years and I have to say this is the Best multi use point and shoot. I can't even image going back to a regular point and shot (I hope I never have to). When I first got the camera, I did have a problem once with all of my pictures being erased after a fun trip to the keys snorkeling. So that was a little upsetting. But I learned my lesson to always download my pictures right away. However, I haven't had any issues since the incident. This camera is always in my purse, I'very taken it around the world. Its been in all kids of water including saltwater and now that I'm a parent, this camera is tons of fun with the kids in the pool. I would suggest this camera to all of my friends. I hope Canon keeps a camera like this in their line of powershots.

Worst camera purchase
on December 25, 2012
Posted by: Anonymous
Camera takes good photos if the LCD worked longer then a couple of months. Now the camera is worthless. Of course warranty would have fixed it but the long phone call wait time was not worth this horrible camera.
Cons: non working lcd
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

10,500 shots
on December 2, 2012

from Bay Area to Great Basin
After 10,500 shots I am ready to say the D10 works :). River trips, snorkeling, backpacks, camping, hikes, it did it all with no failure to fire. Nice colors, decent resolution. It outlasted three other small cameras. For GPS I just noted coordinates from a separate unit and added geotags later if needed. Some cameras won't work at low temps or even below room temperature but this one goes skiing and gets up early on hunting trips. I stepped on several other cameras and broke the lens covers, some fell off dashes, some dropped on pavement, but so what with the D10. Best is that it still has no dust in the lens where others have flare and spots from debris collected quickly. Nice not to fumble with lens caps in a hurry. I clean it with a shirt tail and no scratches or fingerprints that stay for long.
Pros: fast cleaning
I would recommend this to a friend!

Stay away from this one
on September 4, 2012
Posted by: Greg 83642

I bought this camera when preparing for a trip to the Caribbean. Everything looked great when I got the camera and tested at home. As soon as I got in the salt water the rear display quit working. I got back on the boat and tried a few things to determine that the camera was still taking photos even though I couldn't see them. This brings new meaning to the term Point and Shoot. After a day out of the water the display came back on but but quit again as soon as I got in the water again. I sent the camera back to Canon when I got home and they sent me a refurbished camera to replace my new one. The new D10 did work well on a trip to the Grand Canyon but it also died when I took it on a rafting trip in Idaho. I think I took a total of 500 photos with it.
Cons: doesn't work in water
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Works good

I bought this camera specifically for snorkeling because the disposable film cams are terrible. It works well for us! HAs survived two trips to Mexico with daily snorkel trips. I often dive to 15 ft to get pics and have had no problems with my D10. I've gotten some good pics with it form those trips. I was pleasantly surprised to find it takes nice pice out of the water too! FWIW, it's also survived a number of trips to rivers where it's been dunked repeatedly as well as a couple swimming pools. My only complaints were no HD video, and the body being a bit bulky. However, the bulky body does make it easy to handle underwater.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great camera in or out of the water.

Our family loves this camera. Took video while scuba diving (shallow dives), snorkling and playing in the surf. Takes great pictures under water or above. Have taken incredible pictures in the surf, in water caves, etc. that I never could have gotten with my 7D.
Pros: takes great pictures. excellent color
Cons: can at times be little slow to focus under water.
I would recommend this to a friend!
