Great little camera for the price
[ Posted: 2008-10-10 ]
This camera is very small and light (a big priority for me) and easy to use. The pictures are good for a camera this size. I am totally satisfied.
Great Camera Easy to Use
[ Posted: 2008-10-08 ]
This is a great camera that as most everyone has stated is easy to use. It is very compact, provides great pictures, and feels very comfortable in your hands.
I bought this to supplement my Canon 5D DSLR for the unexpected point & shoot photo ops which always come up!
I also recommend that you get an extra battery and some extra SD cards if you don't have something with you to move the pics to.
This will fit just about anywhere.
The only down side is that you can't adjust the various settings for aperture & shutter speed. But that's why I have the 5D!
Canon SD 1100...great point & shoot camera
[ Posted: 2008-10-08 ]
I went from a Canon 60 to the SD1100. I am a novice at photography but this little camera makes it easy to shoot great photo's both outdoors and indoors. I just came back from a vacation in the Black Hills of South Dakota and took about 75 pictures. All of them turned out great! Even the digital zoom pictures I took of Mount Rushmore turned out great. I love the size (fits in a small case on my belt and feels when shooting and I have large hands.
Great camera!
Small, less buttons
[ Posted: 2008-10-07 ]
My SD1100 actually froze up and died soon after I got it. That's the first time in 4 Canon purchases that I've ever had a problem. I quickly replaced it (Amazon did a refund - very risky to shop for cameras elsewhere on line). The large display is great. As compared to my last pocket camera (3.2 mp Canon sd300??) some of the features I used quite a bit (panoramic/stitch) on the old one are a bit more challenging to locate on the newer cameras. A new learning curve.
I have a 30D that I use for "serious" photo work, the purpose of the sd1100 is that I'll always have a camera on me without a bag of camera equipment. If something should happen to it, I'm out $175, instead of $3k. I take this hiking, on the lake and climbing. For the dollar, the 8mp is MORE than enough. Paying more for 10mp just doesn't make any sense.
Outstanding for the price

Very happy with the purchase. Outstanding camera, for such a low price. Crisp images, nice LCD, load to computer with a click, great video. Pick up a 4GB card. The video takes up massive space. 4GB is 32 minutes of video.
