 Excited and happy at first.... now very disappointed :0( June 30, 2008

I did weeks of research looking for a camera with a good zoom, a wide choice of aperture settings and good picture quality! I purchased this camera in April of 2007. It seemed to be working fine and I've taken hundreds of pictures with it. Now a year and 2 months later (2 months after the warranty expired) I went to go on a hike and tried to turn my camera on only to find that it was dead. We tried putting new batteries in with no avail. After returning home from my hike I started doing some research on the internet. I have found quite a few different posts that detail the very same problem as mine. One post mentions that a circuit board in the camera went out and it was almost $200 to fix it. I am a very disappointed customer at this point. I figured a camera that cost $ 350 would last longer than a little over a year. Canon has not issued a recall and hence will not repair it for free. I'm thinking I might need to look elsewhere for my next camera.
 Awesome Zoon June 4, 2008

Great camera! June 1, 2008
This is a great camera for a new camera user or one who is more advanced.
You can do so many things and get some great images. Love the ease of learning.
Canon S3 IS is a great camera May 30, 2008
You need to spend some time with the camera and the owner's manual before taking it on your next safari, but it has great flexibility and produces great shots.
I like the fact that the viewfinder is a small video screen so you can see exactly what is going to be in the picture as well as using it to review pictures.
Battery life was very acceptable using name brand rechargeable batteries that were slow charged.
