    This is a good camera, if you know how to use it. Don’t expect to purchase this camera and whip it out of the box to take an amazing photo, you will need to adjust the settings depending on the type of photo. For example, higher shutter speed (ISO) to take a photo of a moving object such as a waterfall. I researched this camera hard before purchasing and learned quickly that all the negative reviews were from people who did not know how to work a cameras settings, or had dropped it hard enough it stopped functioning. I give this camera four stars because I’m still learning to use it myself but am very pleased with it. Also, TAKE A PHOTO OF THE MOON FULLY ZOOMED IN!!!

    Purchased for our outdoor maternity photos. The pictures look great when taken indoors, we just need to get the hang of using it outside. Love the picture quality and ease of use.

    We purchased this camera to take on a trip. It worked great - we thought- until we went to use zoom. The screen was shaking and bouncing up and down side to side. Made us nauseous just looking at it to take a pic, well trying to snap a pic. We returned it as defective and got a replacement. Went outside and tried the zoom before we left the parking lot----No Bouncing, No Shaking, just pure sweet zoom! Thank you Best Buy <--- Amazing customer service. And thank you Cannon for manufacturing it.

    Exactly what my wife wanted. She has the larger one with all the lenses, but wanted one that would be easier and lighter to carry. This fits the bill!

    Great camera. I use this for my property inspection business. I take hundreds of pictures every day. I had the old 730 for about 5 years. So I was confident to upgrade to this one Even though it's older technology. I wish they would come out with new ones. People in my line of work love these cameras. The optical zoom is amazing.

    Bought it for my daughter. She likes the camera, it is easy to make adjustments and also take quick pics with 'auto' . A little on the pricey side but a decent camera.

    I purchased this item few months ago and I really like it!! I went out west for vacation and getting the rivers, snow on the mountains they look really great. I was driving one day in Wyoming and saw something from a distance and took a pic and used the 40x zoom and it turned out to be a large coyote with the zoom all the way up. The only con or reason didn't give 5 stars is because I took a night pic and the pictured turned out blurry (did it couple of times).
