I purchased Olympus for years, and had a lot of problems, before my Apple Tech told me how Mac friendly Canon is. Features I like is the: larger LED over the SD1100IS that I have used since '07. My previous Canon has served me well and that is the reason I stick with Canon and it is very MAC friendly. Easy to download and great photos quality. I live in Branson and attend a lot of shows. The photos are not good in a dark theater from a distance. The downside is, I thought the battery and charger would be interchangeable with the SD1100. Not true. Canono changed the battery just enough where they are not compatible so I ended up buying another charger and spare battery which will come in handy. Also, I went for 8.0 Megapixels to 12.1 and that makes a difference. I will know more when I find a manual and learn how to use it. Happy shooting!Read full review
very clear photo ', the video you could record more then 15 minuets in one shot you could zoom the the video well it is recording I like it alot' thank you ebay I purchased this camera as a replacement to my old Canon . The main reason I chose to replace it was for the IS feature. When I purchased to my old it was on sale and the IS features on cameras were an expensive option on upgraded models. I have to say the feature performs as expected. Obviously it's not going to do much if there is a lot of camera shake, but it does the job for what it's intended to do. Picture quality is excellent. Low light does well despite the reviews I've heard. Manual settings do just as well as auto settings. I like the playback button that lets you review pics rather than having to switch the camera into another mode. When taking multiple shots the lag time between pics is minimal. Videos work well with it but there is that pesky no in and out zoom during a video. Sound quality was surprisingly good with video mode as well. It takes outdoor video well with little wind noise. I was a bit cautious about buying a camera with no viewfinder as my last camera had one, but let's face it, I hardly used it when I had it. Insisting on a camera with a viewfinder also significantly limited my choices for point and shoots. I'm satisfied with no viewfinder and this camera is exactly what I expect in a good point and shoot. I considered the SD1200IS since it was on sale and a little less expensive but I figured for a few extra features, it's worth the extra $50. Battery life is great! Even under moderate to heavy use it lasted all night and part of the next day. I'd suggest always having another battery pack as a backup though as you never know when you might need it. I would recommend this camera to anyone looking for a quality point and shoot. For the price I don't think you can ask for much more in a compact digital camera.Read full review
Great camera for a beginner. Very easy to use. The auto option allows the camera to do the work for you Ex: If the room is dark the flash will go on automatically. It also has face detection so if you are taking a multi-person portrait it will detect each face with great focus. If you do want to change the settings yourself there are many different options. I recommend this camera to anyone who is looking for an easy to use camera with good quality photographs.
The design of this camera is near perfect. The spacing of the buttons is adequate for even the biggest fingers. Yet the camera's size is small enough for pants pocket storage. It takes really good pictures with great detail and color with acceptable speed. The auto function is almost as good as the SD1400, which itself is spectacular. However, interior shots with overhead bulb lighting can be come out too yellow on the auto setting, so use the interior setting. That last is my only reservation. I believe that it is being updated 3/2011 by the "Elf 100". It will be the same but with a 3" LCD.
I have had several Canon Elph cameras through out the years and I can honestly say--even the very first one is still working great. If it wasn't for the picture technology getting better--you would never have to upgrade these cameras. I take more than 3000 pictures a year for my own enjoyment. I can't say enough good things about this line of cameras--they are ready to use, point and shoot and easy to get the pictures off of them to print or save. No matter if you are an experienced photographer, everyday person or first time user--you can't mess up pictures with this camera. I still have the Canon Sure Shot Elph models: 250, 450, 1000 and now the 1300. I have only had this one for a week or so--but so far I like it. IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A GREAT POINT AND SHOOT CAMERA AT A GREAT PRICE-BY A GREAT COMPANY--CHOOSE THE CANON SURE SHOT CAMERAS.Read full review
