An improvement over the SD1000

I bougth a SD1000 last year for my wife, but our daugther basically take it for herself, so I need to buy another camera for my disatisfied wife. I was happy with the SD1000, so I choose this model thinking it will be more of the same, an I like the new colors too.
After some weeks of use, I could say that this is a better camera, it feels more solid, with better materials. The photos are better, not only because of the IS, but with the overall quality (I have made some prints and I think all photos look better).
I don't give it 5 stars because of the limited manual controls. It is a very good, may I say excelent, point and shoot, but if your'e interested in experimenting with your photos, you may want to buy another model with more manual controls.

Great Purchase

We have a Nikon D40x that my wife finds difficult to use and bulky at times. This camera is great for her carry in her purse or pocket and takes excellent photos! We have had no problems at all taking pictures of progress on a house we are refurbishing and also snapping GREAT photos at a SEC outdoor Football game. So far have had no problems. The inside photos were not as great as the outdoor, but I feel like this was from the difficult lighting. Would purchase another. My wife is very picky and so far she has had no complaints!

I really debated about getting this camera. The example pics didn't seem great. There seemed to be other cameras that had the same options but for cheaper. I decided that there were tons of good reviews for a reason and boy was I right! I bought this to replace my Kodak Easyshare (that cracked way too easily). I love it. I was looking for a simple easy to use camera that takes great pics. That's exactly what you get with this. Very easy to use. Very easy to download pic and video. Small. I'm sure there are many more functions this camera has but I haven't needed to use them. The image stabilization is automatic and is a must have function.

I love this camera! I can be over whelming at times but a couple of extra minutes and exploring and you can figure many of its awesome features. There is so much this camera offers that you can edit and send straight to printer. This is even easier since I have a Canon Pixma IP4500 that allows direct connection with the camera through pictbridge feature. All these features and so much more packed into a nice compact package.

Excellent quality camera!

This is an excellent camera and very easy to use and get adjusted to. Also makes viewing pictures very easy. I like how it is so compact and fits snugly in a small camera case. Also, I love having a chargeable battery as opposed to a camera run on batteries, as this gets tedious to replace etc. Definitely worth every penny!
