    I bought this for a trip and I have to say that it took great pictures! It was also convenient to carry as I was limited with space. The video quality was really good too.

    I bought this for a trip to Vegas and it did not disappoint. I'm no photographer but the quality of the photos and videos were amazing and it was small enough to fit in my small backpack without weighing it down. I love the color too!

    This camera is so easy to use. It takes great pictures and is easy to upload to your computer using the wifi connection. I had a Powershot before and this model has more features. Great camera for the price

    I bought this camera for a trip to South Africa, specifically for the 40x zoom feature. Mostly, I use my iPhone for pictures, but I wanted to get close-ups of the animals on our game drives. I am very pleased with the quality of the shots. Very clear, great color. There are a lot of features I may never use on this camera though. Canon could make a cheaper version that doesn’t have so many bells and whistles, and sell it for less. As I said, the key feature for me was the zoom. The one thing I don’t like about this camera is that you can’t transfer pictures to a computer using a cord. You have to use Wi-Fi, or have a computer that has an SD card slot. Setting up Wi-Fi transfer was confusing, but worked well once I figured it out (hours later).

    Great camera to take along where larger DSLR are cumbersome. Excellent quality of photos, more features than I expected. Very simple to connect via wifi to my iPhone to share photos.

    I bought this camera to bring to concerts where my other cameras were not allowed. I chose it because of the long zoom. I used it for one concert so far and got some decent pictures. I used the low light setting. This setting uses a high iso but most of the pictures were not too grainy. Some of the pictures were worth keeping and others were not. The next concert I will use either the manual setting or the aperture priority setting. I also bring this camera with me during the day in case I see something worth shooting. It's still early, but I am enjoying this point and shoot.

    I needed a small compact camera to take on a trip to Europe. I normally use a DSLR but needed something lighter. I was delighted with the quality of the photographs and ease of taking pictures.

    The zoom is easy to operate and takes very clear pictures. The controls are similar to earlier models. The battery life is longer, but the battery charger and the battery are different sizes from earlier models, so I had to scrap my old accessories.

    This Canon is a full power camera in a compact package. The quality of the photos is equivalent to any dslr unit but at around 300 dollars and palm size is far more convenient to travel with.

    This camera is wonderful. It will take some getting used to if you have an older model of a similar canon but it is great. Picture quality is very high and it is easy to use to get those great photos. Small for such a high zoom.

    Purchase this camera out for the Zoom, it does have a very far zoom, but the clarity at the highest zoom is not as great as I had hoped for a. But still very good for the price. Light small enough to carry specially when traveling.

    Compact and powerful. Recently discovered the "creative" shot and am having fun with it. Bought for concert photos since my larger Sony point and shoot kept getting turned away as being too large. Several concerts later, have had no issues passing though security. Love the photo quality.
