 Battery Hog June 16, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I own a LOT of Canon products. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this one. It takes stunning photos and has a great LCD display, but it sucks batteries like crazy. Depending on its mood, I will only get a dozen or so photos before it shuts down. I have tried different brands of re-chargeables to no avail. Love my other Canon products, but this one sucks.
Too bad.
Good reliable camera June 16, 2008
I bought several of these for work. Good camera, takes good pictures. The only reason I don't give it five stars is that out of the box the clock battery was almost dead and it wouldn't keep the time in memory. I went online and Canon said that this was a problem - new battery for $5 solved the problem but shouldn't be required on a new camera. Why I like the Canon A- line and have bought about 6 of them in the last three years (A510, A530, A710) - 1) AA batteries are available everywhere. I use rechargables. 2) SD cards are inexpensive. If you get a camera with Memory Stick or XD, you will pay a lot more for memory. I picked up 2 GB cards for $15 each. 3) Good optical zoom of 4X. Digital zooms are essentially useless. 4) Good control layout and menus. Good grip on the camera for single hand use and they still have viewfinders which are good in very bright light. I would say I use the back display for about 80% of shots, but the viewfinder comes in handy.
The included 16 MB memory card is way too small to be practical, so budget for at least a 2 GB SD card. I carry the 16 MB for a spare in case I need to get about 5 more pictures (like the reserve in your car's gas tank, when you need it you really need it).

My second Canon Camera and it is perfect. I was looking for a quality, just above entry level digital camera and this was it. I purchased mine in December. So easy to navigate the features, and so many options and creative settings, that you can make some great photos. The video option is good enough for what little I do.
I loved mine so much that I bought another for my parents. They are not as camera savvy as me, but are able to use it effectively.
Biggest pros: big LCD, viewfinder, size, construction, picture quality, black and white setting, other color settings, software and ease of use, common sense menu and feature navigation, awesome photo previews after making settings, overall construction.
Cons: video setting is fine, but limited as to zooming distance. My intent was not to make too many vids.
Very satisfied. Will stay with Canon. I have a Rebel 2000 and loved that...same settings and options only on digital.
Well worth the price...blows away the Nikon CoolPix that I tried last year.
I love this camera June 11, 2008
I absolutely love this camera. The resolution is excellent! It is fairly simple to take pictures. The zoom is easy to use and takes close up pictures. There are many modes to choose from when taking photos, but the AUTO is normally the best. The camera does good on its own deciding the correct mode. Battery life is the only problem! I AM glad that this camera has the 2 AA option instead of the rechargable battery slot. At least I can keep a spare set of AA's on me so that I know I can always take pictures.
Great cam for amateur-intermediate, and semi-pro purposes if you really put the xtra effort June 10, 2008
It's great for purposes stated in the title of this review, I will anex pictures so they can speak for themselves, go look em up under my username. I also take underwater pics with it, I like it so far. When im ready for a 1,000 USD slr camara, I'll be very confident for i will have mastered the basics with this one. For the creative devourer in need to digest all around him/her, this cam rocks. PLus, the price is only 120 something, go buy a more exzpensive 300-500 one and see how the results are practically the same...
Seriously compare the pictures from other reviews of much more expensive cameras then come back and see how the difference is but a stark one...
I'll try to post more pics in time...
