 A lot of Camera for the price February 19, 2008
I just started getting into digital photography about a year before I bought this one. My first digital camera was a little Kodak Easyshare C533. I'm not really sure how to compare the two camera's. The Kodak was very easy and sorta intuitive to learn how to use and was/is a great starter camera. This Canon PowerShot Pro is soooo much more! I love the image stabilisation in it! That was the main thing missing in the little Kodak. And the PowerShots 12x zoom is great for pulling in those long shots and still making them nice and clear and sharp.
There is so much that this camera can do that I will never be able to figure out on my own. I need to find a course someplace to take on how to use it. Or it would be nice if Canon had a instructional DVD on how to use this camera. This camera is definatly not for the beginner, but with a little practice I'll get it. So far I'm very happy with it.
The 4 battery pack gives it enough power to take lots and lots of pictures before you need to change and recharge them. The Kodak needed the batteries changed after 150 shots or so.
The video function on the Canon is nice too. I like the instant video button that you can use at any time while taking photos without having to change any settings. The color swap function in kinda fun to play with too. All though I haven't got the hang of that yet.
Over all this is a nice camera that I think I will get a lot of use and fun out of. But I wouldn't recommend it for any one that is tech or mechanically challenged.
Good camera February 15, 2008

It's been a great camera for us. Good collection of features, good pictures, easy to use. Love the image stabalization - seems to make a huge difference, especially in zoomed in or low-light situations.
The felt ring on the lens cap came off, but Canon promptly sent us a new cap. So I was pleased with the service as well.
But, it's kind of bulky for day to day use. I ended up buying a little camera my wife could stick in her purse. And the pictures from that camera look just as good to me (to my untrained eye, that is). So in retrospect...we probably won't get a ton of use from this camera. But it does live up to it's description.
Great Camera February 13, 2008

I always do a lot of research before I dive into any purchase. One of my friends has this camera and really liked it. I like the fact that it has the features of a 35MM but the convenience of a digital camera.
There are a lot of features that I don't know how to use but it takes excellent pictures in my opinion. I have done a lot of experimenting with the different settings to figure out what works best.
The zoom is really great and I love the flip out window to get a better view of your shot.
The one thing that I would definitely recommend is that you purchase at least one set of rechargeable batteries -- it goes through regular alkalines pretty fast!
 shipping and condition perfect February 8, 2008
i use this camera daily. it is a solid modle and worth the money for sure.
Great quality, dependability and features February 8, 2008
This was my second Canon digital camera as my first one took an unexpected dive in the lake. From the wide zoom range to the video capabilities, this camera has more than enough features to keep me happy. I primarily use the camera for action shots and video and couldn't be more pleased with the camera's performance. I would higly recommend the PowerShot Pro S3 to potential camera buyers.
