 Love this camera July 26, 2008
This is my first digital camera. It is so easy to use and the pictures are great. Wish I would have bought it a long time ago.

 Short bus July 26, 2008
After one day of use this camera started displaying "lens error" upon power up. Dealing with Canon customer service to get it fixed/replaced is a nightmare. I'd rather eat the $250. I think the EEs working on this camera rode the 'short' bus to campus. Back to Sony... and I won't be leaving again.
Yeah baby! That's what I'm talking about! July 26, 2008
I absolutely love this camera. I use to have a Nikon Coolpix 8700 which worked great for set up shots, but it was so complex and slow for point-and-shoot and also very bulky, I hated to carry it around. Canon, specifically this camera, really got it right with this camera. Honestly it's like having the best of both worlds. You can use the Manual function to lighten or darken a picture (change the ISO, etc) with such ease, or use the AUTO for quick point-and-shoot, or even use the set up functions like Portrait, Beach, Outdoors, etc. And even with the set up function it is easy to manipulate and change the settings.
Unlike the Nikon, all my pictures with the Canon turn out GREAT. There is no lag at all. I also love the video function and use it often. People have been complaining about not having a viewfinder but honestly, who the hell cares?
I strongly recommend this camera for amateurs, consumers, professionals, etc. This is a keeper, I bring it everywhere with me and have never been disappointed in the pictures nor the developed prints. I am definitely going to continue buying Canon products.
 fine prints July 26, 2008
It's a generally good camera.. which I won't repeat what other ppl say..
some perhaps unusual complaints
1. zoom during video capture is digital.. and it gets pixelated very quickly. You can do optical zoom before starting the recording, but once the recording started, the optical zoom is fixed.. i.e. you can't UNzoom the optical zoom. So the video capture still take some prior mental planning if you use the zoom a lot..
2. I have a 8GB SD card.. I always have problem copying off video clips longer than 1GB off the card through the camera.. don't know why
3. it's hard to play with where exactly you want to focus.. e.g. if you manually focus on a spot then move the camera for composition.. the focus will change.. haven't figure how to do that yet.. whereas my old Sony cybershot works perfectly.. not much depth-of-focus either..
Best camera I've ever had! July 26, 2008
I really liked this camera from the moment I saw it. It is not only beautiful, but it also takes great photos regardless of the shooting conditions. Love it!
