    I typically rely on my phone for taking pictures, but I am going on a 2 week cruise and wanted more functionality in a small package. This camera gives me everything I was looking for! Takes great pictures and easy to use.

    This camera is another of Canon's great products. It has shown great focus, even at it's amazing zoom. It's light and compact. It has fun features to make taking pictures enjoyable and entertaining - mini size, toy camera and vivid. It's a great camera and is going for a decent price.

    Easy to use and takes the most beautiful pictures. I wanted something not too big or difficult to try to manage. I also wanted the lens to zoom in very close. Both features I was looking for with the right price

    We got this to replace one with a smaller viewfinder. This one has a larger viewfinder and takes great photos. It has a lot of features we haven’t used yet. It has a different battery than the previous model we had but it charges very quickly and lasts much longer than our older model.

    I bought this camera to take shots of the products I sell in my Etsy shop. The camera is easy to use and takes great pictures. I didn't want a more expensive or complicated camera so this one really hits the mark. The pictures are sharp and the color is great. Highly recommended.

    I LOVE LOVE LOVE this camera!!! I had a Sony that I absolutely loved and we were on vacation and the Sony, after several years of faithful service to me (!!) wasn't working right. I wasn't able to see pictures I took on the camera, so we went to Best Buy to see if they could fix it. They couldn't and said I should buy a new one. After looking at several cameras, the salesman (who was great) suggested this Canon. It was $379 and I debated spending that much but sooo very glad I did. I LOVE the camera, I LOVE the pictures it takes.. I keep it on automatic setting and it takes fabulous pictures!! We took well over 2,000 pictures on it since buying it on August 6th... The pictures I took of the Grand Canyon, and Arches park, etc came out great and clear.... the pictures I took of sunsets came out great. I am very happy with this new toy of mine!

    Good Camera - Small and Gets Job Done

    We needed a small but good camera for a trip last minute and was able to get this at a good price. We like that the camera is small enough to fit into our pocket/purse and easy to carry around. The quality of the pictures are very good and the zoom is awesome. We brought 2 cameras with us on our vacation but ended up loving this one more and using this camera the whole 2 weeks.

    This camera takes really nice photos. The zoom range is impressive and maintains the integrity of the shot. I have only used it in auto and continuous shooting modes so far, but I look forward to exploring the other settings. The camera is comfortable to hold. A great buy for the price!

    We wanted a point and shoot for ease of handling and weight and the Canon xs720 had more zoom than the Nikon Coolpix 900 it replaced. Happy so far with the pictures we are getting (primarily wildlife and birds). Would recommend this camera

    This camera is excellent. The zoom feature is incredible and the camera is very easy to use. I have had various cameras over the years and this one is by far the best. If you want a point and shoot with up to date features, great optical resolution, and quick focus, you can't go wrong with this camera.

    I bought this camera right befor a cruise to Alaska. This camera lived up to my expectations and more. I was able to get the shots that others were unable to without out the big DSLR with telephoto lenses. The clarity and ease of use are superb. And it fit right in my pocket. I highly recommend.

    This camera is a great deal for beginners and more experienced photographers. I got it because I was looking for the convenience of taking a camera with me everywhere instead of my bulky slr. I’ve shot on manual and automatic and have been happy with both. One of the most remarkable features for such a small camera is the amazing zoom levels.
