3 out of 5 stars Save up and buy something slightly more expensive   August 18, 2010

The overall quality of this camera is good, however, I have had nothing but frustration since I began using this. First of all, with nearly every picture that you take using the flash, following the actual picture taking, the LCD display goes black for several seconds and gives you a message that it is charging the flash.

Second, the camera will take its time focusing in and finding the right levels of focus and clarity for the picture that you are trying to take. When it does allow you to take your photo, a review of the photo on both the LCD and later on a PC will often reveal that the picture you just took is blurry and out of focus.

In conclusion, this camera is too much high maintenance for a simple point-and-shoot camera. I have two small kids, and when I want to catch them at a particular moment to take a picture, every second is essential. Between waiting for the flash to charge and then the camera to focus, and then followed by pictures that come out with little quality, the money spent on this camera is not an investment in memories as it should be, but rather an investment in frustration.

We purchased this camera for our granddaugter to take on her trip to Colorado. Canon cameras take very good pictures. This camera is small and compact and very easy to use. You can navigate through the menu easily.

Very good value. Reasonable price. Our 1st digital camera & we wondered why we waited so long. Extremely easy to use, even for the novice. If & when we need to buy another, it will likely be a Canon.

Sorry to say, this is my 1st negative review of a product on Amazon and I hate to do it, however I would not be able to recommend this camera model to anyone! (I have had Canon Powershots in the past that I loved, too.)

I bought this camera and immediately fell in love. It was easy to use, took great macro and regular shots, and was just an overall wonderful camera! That was until the batteries started going out after about taking 50 shots with it. No flash was being used at all, it was only in macro mode. And this happened repeatedly no matter what batteries I used. I have at least 4 different sets of rechargeable AA's that I have used successfully with my other camera. They would last forever in that one, but not in this camera! You get about 50 shots and that's it. Basically this makes this camera completely USELESS for me. I have an online business that requires me to take many shots to weed out the best ones to use - and needless to say after going through 4 different sets of batteries within 15 minutes time after time has made me furious. I am going to return this camera today, garbage!!
