Customer Ratings & Reviews

Blurry Photo's often. I sometimes take 50 photo's a day. It may be the screen on the camera is not high quality and it mostly looks like blurry photo's.

This Camera stopped working less than a month after it was purchased and can't return it to Best Buy. Now I have to go through the whole Cannon Repair policy which takes time.

The salesperson said it had internal memory even after I asked him if I needed an SCard. ..not! I lost several key shots on Christmas day.

Not able to access the download file. Ii can't upload my photos because of the vague details on the web. I've had other brands of cameras that provided an Installation disc that made the Installation easy. I don't plan to use this camera very often

Camera is not very good the color quality is poor and does not match actual colors. Also no port to download directly from camera

Camera was over priced. Doesnt focus alot you must turn power off and on when this happens. Very fragile.

hard to change Pixel size and save. Direction for camera not good to change and keep Pixels smaller

I have owned several cameras of the same size and this was the worse. Pictures were blurry and the battery indicator was unreliable. Much better cameras for the money.

this product is still being tested. it is working really good for the purposed.

Have owned several previous Elph cameras, but this one consistently produces unsharp images.

Didn’t have gray resolution. Was a bit unsteady compared to iPhone that I took with me.

I don't find this very easy to use, but then again, I am low on the tech scale

This camera does not hook up to your computer, You must remove the sd card. What a pain I returned it and purchased a Nikon

I got this doing inspections for a backup. Nothing great about this camera

I can't get help with my newly purchased Canon Power Shot ELPH 180!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!! I have ONE simple question about this camera and CANNOT get through to ANY Best Buy store to speak with someone, a LIVE body and NOT a recording!!!

The quality of the camera feels cheap. The shutter was slow to take pictures and the pictures were very blurry in all types of lighting. Felt more like a camera from the early 2000's. 8 megapixel phone camera takes clearer shots.

There's nothing complicated about this camera and it does a fair job.

Too many blurry photos though I followed instructions. Very poor images

Ok camera for beginners but some of pictures were fuzzy

I purchased this camera about two weeks ago and have been putting it through a daily pace of photographic assignments. First of all, let's get my biases out of the way. I've been an avid amateur photographer for over thirty years and have always loved doing it my way; that is figuring out f-stops, shutter speeds, light meters, bracketing exposures...the whole nine yards, both in filmand digital. But I needed a fairly basic point and shoot following a recent trip to Fort Lauderdale, FL, so when I got back, I purchased the Canon Elph 180 and saved my digital SLR for the more serious stuff. So let's get down to facts: The Good: The Canon 180 is a good starter camera for the person who just wants to simply take pictures, which is what it does. 80 percent of the images I took were of good to excellent quality. 15 percent were slightly or greatly out of focus, either due to me being to close for the autofocus to work or from slow shutter speeds. Once I learned to back off and zoom in to frame the picture, the autofocus did its job fine. Some of the images were a little undersaturated, but any good photo imaging program can remedy that. The 5 percent were low light shots that were grainy due to the high ISO speeds, probably some camera noise, some jpeg compression, and low light conditions. The Bad: Often times when zooming in, like close-ups of flowers and small objects, I noticed the image in the viewfinder moves quite a bit with the slightest bit of camera movement, which makes it hard to frame a shot. I don't know if something like image stabilization would help in this situation, but seeing this is a beginner's camera, I'm a little puzzled why Canon didn't incorporate this into the 180. Also an aperture priority/shutter priority setting vs. the Program mode would have been nice. The Ugly: Canon, don't be so chintzy. Make the box a little bigger and enclose a REAL instruction manual instead of having to download it off the internet. If you're home with your camera, fine. But if you're on the Appalachian Trail, hiking, and you need to refresh your memory, it's hard to deal with a pdf file while lugging your 80 pound backpack in the backcountry. Yeah, you can say, "Print it and take it with you." but who wants to mess with a bunch of stapled together pages vs. a nice compact manual. 'Nuff said! Conclusion: The Canon 180 is a good starter camera for those who want to take just family and vacation pictures. It's not exactly "perfektion und qualitat" and it won't make you the next Ansel Adams, but for the average person who just wants good shots, the 180 will fit the bill.
