Summary: Great Point & Shoot Camera
Comment: This camera is a great point and shoot camera. It is small, compact yet solid. It takes great pictures with little effort and allows immediate feed back on each picture. It has very little delay in the first shot or subsequent shots which was a significant issue with our first digital camera.

Summary: Some good, some bad
Comment: As much as I hate to give a positive review to a canon product, this really is an excellent camera. It is very easy to use and understand and is very small (easily fits in a pocket). This camera also uses SD cards which are easy to collect and exchange as needed. Additionally, the camera produces good IQ for a P&S. The camera is also fast to take a picture, it isn't like some other P&S cameras that flash orange lights and pre flashes for 30 seconds before actually making the exposure.
As for the negative, the software that comes with the camera is quite mediocre and difficult to use. If I didn't have a card reader I'd be pretty upset about that.

Summary: Great Point and Shoot Camera
Comment: I bought this camera as a replacement for my Panasonic one after reading great reviews and being on top of most products reviews. It is definitively as good as the reviews promised.
8.3 megapixels with optical image stabilization. It can detect up to 9 faces in a scene and use them to set exposure and focus. It also uses face detection to remove red-eye automatically and to calculate white balance for better skin tones (that said some night indoor images seem too orange/yellow, but it gets corrected if you select night mode).
The Motion Detection Technology also uses face detection if the subject is moving and adjusts settings to prevent motion blur.
The lens (38-114mm f/2.8-4.9) is not as wide as the 870's (28-105mm f/2.8-5.8), nor its viewfinder (2.5-inch LCD) as large (3-inch LCD), but is definitively sleeker, more technologically advanced (the 870 does not have the face detection features) and cheaper!

Summary: Very simple to use, not for the power user.
Comment: This camera is the perfect point and shoot. The menu's are extremely easy to use, the pictures come out very good and the camera will focus and shoot a picture faster than any camera I have ever used. The drawbacks are the slow flash recharge time and the 3x optical zoom. The screen is a good size, although the newer models have a slighly larger screen. The memory slot will take a 16GB card. I found this out after I bought it and was surprised to see at the highest resolution (8.0 megapixels) you get over 4500 pictures on a 16GB card. Most people probably won't need more than a 4GB card for all their movies and pictures unless you aren't able to get to a computer for a VERY long time. For the price (got mine for $150 on amazon) it is a really good deal for a mid-range economy camera.

Summary: Love the Canon...Love the COLOR!
Comment: I bought this for my daughter in law....and she loves it. I too own a Canon SD "older" version....that was the reason we chose this Canon. Mine is still going strong after 3yrs of constant usage and takes super pics & video. This newer model does even more, cost MUCH less and now even comes in great colors! Way to go CANON!
