 Son Loves It January 9, 2009
I bought this for my 17 year old son for Christmas. He absolutely loves it. This is his first camera although he has used my wife's, which is also a Canon. What else can I say. If it works for my son it works for me.
Great Product, Great Service January 9, 2009
This camera is very easy to use. I picked it because it was a little bigger than the slim cameras which are easy to drop.
Great Camera January 9, 2009
easy to use and understand, software is good.
comfortable to hold, view and shoot.
more options than standard cameras of this price range
love it
 point and shoot for grandma January 8, 2009
We have another model and bought this as a gift for my 80 year old mother who had expressed an interest in a digital camera. (And also purchased some rechargeable batteries and a recharger). It is not a pocket size, but it is pretty small.
It seems to take fine pictures for her purposes. With a short hands-on experience, she is comfortable with it. Despite a little arthritis in her hands, she can open the battery/SD card compartment to change batteries or take the card out for reading on her computer. We chose it because it had a view finder as well as the screen. (I appreciate using the viewfinder when I don't have my reading glasses handy since then I can't focus well on any 'screen'. I imagined that the same would apply for my mother).
It can be a little slow in taking pictures, but from our experience with another model, that will be alleviated when we get a fast (class 6) SDHC card for her. It came with a 512MB card that was nothing special. It would be sensible to upgrade that as soon as possible with something like a 4 or 8GB class 6 card and high speed card reader.
The only thing I do not like (perhaps I just didn't read the manual carefully enough to figure it out) is I cannot change the stored image names to a more unique and identifiable naming scheme that uses the date in the name. The best I can do is specify that it never reuse a number over, but it starts at img_0001.jpeg and goes from there.
Great gift idea January 8, 2009
I bought this item as a gift idea for my girlfriend who is a real shutterbug. I'm not very versed in the whole digital camera craze, but after reading the other reviews of this product I decided this was the way to go. The camera has proved to be easy to use and takes great photos. A larger memory card purchase has ensured this will be a gift that keeps on giving for years to come.
