Amazing Camera
on December 12, 2010
Posted by: NDSUBison4Life
I got this camera for my birthday and love it. I got the brown camera and love the color and size of the camera. It's the perfect size. The one thing that kinda bothers me is the wrist strip isn't adjustable, but that is definitely not a deal breaker. I would recommend this camera to anyone looking for a everyday type of camera.
Pros: good battery life, Good Low-Light Performance, excellent image quality, durable, Lightweight/Portable, easy to use
I would recommend this to a friend!

I like everything about the Canon SD/1300IS, with one exception.
I'm an older camera user and still like having a view finder, which this camera does not have. That said, I'm getting accustomed to the screen for my pictures.

This camera replaced a Canon Powershot A430 that was my first digital camera. I love the ease of downloading and it takes excellent quality pictures. It is very easy to use and I would not have any other brand.

Great Value!

I needed a small easy to pack camera that would take video as well as still pictures for our upcoming Alaska trip to catch Halibut. I have not only been pleased with the easy to use camera. But, also amazed at the quality and clarity of the pictures. I have already recommended it to everyone, after they saw the pictures of the big fish, and the beautiful scenery of Alaska. It is easy to charge, and lasts on a long trip. I love it being ready to go anytime I want to catch my grandsons in action, which is always. Would buy another, inexpensive too!
Pros: price is right!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Fuzzy for a 12 megapixel camera
on December 15, 2010
Posted by: Dave Esq
from NY
The pros - not a bad pocket camera for snapshots.
The cons - I had a 3 megapixel camera for years. I replaced that camera with this one and hoped it would offer much clearer images. I am sad to say the images are just as grainy and fuzzy as with my old camera.
The menu is also cumbersome.
Pros: Lightweight/Portable, easy to use
Cons: Poor image quality
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

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.
