Great products

I can not express enough satisfaction with ANY CANNON product, my first canon product was an all in one printer, did not have to break the bank to buy cartridges, that all printer still work after all these years of use. I had to get another one now but still canon... the reason i bought this camera is because my old 5 years plus canon camera unfortunately was broken by me... I dropped on the floor inadvertedly and even so still my camera was working, to my disblief after that episode my camera was still WORKING... that is why I LOVE CANON,ANY CANON PRODUCT just PROOF YOU ARE BUYING LOOOONG LOONG TIME QUALITY
Pros: good battery life, Nice features/settings, excellent image quality, Bright LCD, Simple controls/menu, easy to use
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great Value for the Price
on March 13, 2011

The Camera is very attractive, the screen is nice and large, The hardware is easy to install and use, however, when I plug in the camera to the computer to transfer the images, it takes a while to connect. I purchased the camera in October and now (March) the lens is broken and will not open when I turn the camera on. I need to call customer support and hope it can be fixed. Also, its easy to figure out except the size of the pictures, they're automatically largely pixelated, so, it takes a while to upload to facebook/ myspace and it takes up a lot of storage on my hard-drive, so I need to look at the manual on how to change that.
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
Cons: lens broke
I would recommend this to a friend!

This is my 4th Powershot!
They keep getting better!
I gave my older models to the kids, they are still working and take great pictures, but I like keeping up with the Newer features.

Erase All Option
on March 7, 2011
Posted by: VTRod
from Fort Myers
I previously had a SD1100 IS which I liked and was gifted a new SD1300 IS. The biggest difference btw the two is that the 1100 has "erase" picture options, such as by date, by folder,etc which is very very useful. But in the 1300, the only "erase" option is "Erase All".....Wonder if the firmware will ever be updated to re-include better "erase" options for this model (like in the 1100)
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Disposable Camera
on March 6, 2011
Posted by: Rich
Overall the camera was nice but it failed in less than one year with no notice. Construction or quality control is severely lacking. With no notice, one moment it's working then the next momenet (a few minutes later) when we try to power it up it will not, DEAD! The camera has been used to take just several hundered pictures and has NEVER been abused, it looks just as good as it did when I had pulled it out of it's box.
Pros: Lightweight/Portable, easy to use
Cons: Flimsy Construction, failure to operate
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Best Camera for the price
on February 11, 2011
Posted by: Spidermon1
from Lake Worth, FL
This camera has the best quality photo for the price that I've seen to date. I've used other brands but always had one family camera that is a Cannon. The close pictures come in so crisp, clear and clean that it looks like a professional photographer took them with a $10,000 camera. The only thing that I don't like about it is the low light distance pictures don't come out well at all. There must be a way to remedy that and maybe I'm doing something wrong.
Pros: good battery life, Nice features/settings, excellent image quality, Bright LCD, Lightweight/Portable, Simple controls/menu, easy to use
Cons: Poor Low-Light Performance
