Great camera
[ Posted: 2008-12-02 ]
This is a great Camera, it not only takes great pictures, the movies are just as good. The only thing to keep in mind is the Transcend 4G memory card will not work with older readers...So my advice is to buy a Transcend card reader that costs about $15 and plugs into the computer via a USB port
EXCELLENT TINY CAMERA!

I just got this camera after my old one broke, and I really wanted a nice compact one. This camera is in fact very small, and very easy to use. I really love it. It takes excellent pictures, and has a lot of options for different settings, light, speeds.. You can see some pictures i uploaded using the "digital macro" option, you can actually see ice crystals formed on the grass, a rose, and another plant, on a frosty morning.
good gift choice for kids or grandparents

the order arrived pretty quick. The camera works fine as it should be.
One thing I don't like about this camera is the design of the 'mode switch' button (switch from photo shot, video and review). It is loose and looks really cheap. We haven't explored all its functions yet and will give more detailed review later.
Picture quality is excellent and price worthy

Pros: -compact and sturdy enough to hold and shoot without dropping.
-Ideal for parents/elders who are not camera savvy
-Excellent picture quality when compared to Nikon SD series and Sony coolpix series
-looks stylish,esp. the gold color.
-Image Stabilization really works! it is difficult to get a decent snap of my dog who never stays still and this time i got excellent shots with my cannon SD1100.
-Lithium battery life is good and lasts for around 200+pics
Cons: Flash setting are not accurate in certain light conditions. I ended up getting darker pics with flash on and vice-versa.(could have been my ignorance with the settings and I may have to read the manual again)
-Battery/memory flap is very delicate,needs extra care while opening and closing.
-takes more time to download the pics to the computer(I did not use the camera driver provided, I chose not to and it still worked)
overall a good product for the money and the deal with the camera+memory worked out excellent
Really good camera for the price

We bought this camera to replace an HP r707. So far, so good. The Canon takes a really nice picture and even the video quality is pretty good. One difference we have to get used to is that with this camera it's not so simply a point and shoot. You have to press the shutter button halfway down to allow it to focus for a second, and then press it all the way down to snap the photo. But it's really not a big deal. The nighttime pictures come out really good as well. The menu system is a bit more complicated than we were used to, and navigation isn't as straightforward. When shopping for a new camera, we used the reviews here and also at dpreview.com. On dpreview.com, this camera had the best rating in it's price range. Overall, it's a great camera and a great price.
