There are several pros and just a few cons to this camera.Pros:-beautiful, crisp outdoor pictures-hardly any shutter lag-easy to use for the technologically impaired-takes OK videos (for a camera)-doesn't eat batteries like Kodak-has lots of settings if you want to do it manually-takes great action shots; hardly any blur-big enough to feel solid and indestructible, but small enough to be compact-good zoom-pictures can be blown up and still look awesomeCons:-indoor pictures aren't too great; they either come out blurry or dark w/out flash or way too unnaturally bright w/flash-same with nighttime pictures-when using flash, shutter lag is much longer and is often inconvenientOverall, for the money, this camera is awesome. It takes better pictures than their slim, colorful ones ANY day.
The Cons list didn't affect me at all because I don't take indoor pictures or night pictures, and I never use the flash because I'm always outside. I highly recommend this camera.
I wish I could rate this camera as 4 1/2 stars. I'm sixteen, and a few friends have teased me about my 'old lady camera', but you know what.
I plan on maybe upgrading to a more high-end camera because I'm moving into professional photography, but I've taken some beautiful, crisp pictures with this camera, and I definitely recommend it, for families, kids, travelers, or anyone really. It's a bit above four, but it just doesn't quite make five for my standards.
It's nearly indestructible (I've dropped it about a million times, taking it horseback riding, shoved it into a gym bag that was thrown all over a bus, and carried it with me on numerous adventures while traveling in Spain).
I will not order from this person again. I was very disappointed with the camera, the battery holder does not shut all the way and it causes the battery to not last very long.
And the price was right. So far it has performed very well. It is not the best camera for a serious photographer, but it works great for my educational purposes. I needed a low cost, functional digital camera for my middle school science classroom. It is used by myself and dozens of students.
Really easy to put pic's on my computer and share them. It does use AA battaries but with 4 kids I keep a lot of those on hand. Also, I have been told that if I would use the lithium AA they would last longer. wow - what a great camera. I really like this camera. That is exactly what I got. The features that I wanted was EASY to operate, point and shoot camera. Just a great camera that fits in your hand, slides in a purse to go anywhere and be ready at all times to take great pic's of kids.
It has Canon's Digic III image processor.- Canon Genuine Face Detection Technology. Uses 2 regular double AA batteries.
- Fast startup. - Zoom is 4X.
Excellent entry level camera for your $. - Good in low light- Long battery life.
When you turn on the camera, you can almost shoot right away.- Huge 2.5 LCD screen + viewfinder- Manual control for ISO (80 to 1600)- Built-in speaker - Shoots 640x480 video with audioCons:- Feels small and awkward in your hands- Looks (Compare with Canon A590 IS before you buy)Pros:- 8 megapixel- Excellent image quality.
