    You can take pictures from using the auto mode to manually setting the many picture technical parameters for a personalized exposure. A great camera.

    I was having a horrible time deciding between this camera and the Sony a line of mirrorless cameras. I decided that this seemed like a really good camera with a lot of functionality and it still had a view finder (I like to rock it old school sometimes, especially when it's crazy sunny) without paying a lot more. This camera takes AMAZING low light photos! I almost never use the flash, even when the camera tells me to raise it. It takes nice quick photos and is a great semi-compact size for a camera with so many features. I love it :)

    Superior in low light & continuous shooting are key. Purchased a LCD protective cover & molded hard case from Amazon for this special camera. It's my new go-to device & I own other cameras. Another win for Canon!

    I bought this for my wife, and this camera is great! It's easy to use and takes great pictures. It also focuses pretty fast and usually where you want it to. For a point and shoot, this is as good as I have used.

    If you like the larger Canon cameras you will love this one to carry with you everyday. Features are the same as the other Canons. Excellent zoom and photo quality.

    Good camera. Mainly use for a full working day, Monday - Friday. We did noticed, that after a few months, the camera has to be switched, since it looks like it gives up on the clearness, lighting of the photo. Normally used to take photos with white background.

    Nice camera, relatively easy to use. Flash is in a poor location, as your index finger on your left hand naturally goes to that spot.
