    Absolutely love how the photos come out and how easy it is to use. I dont use the bluetooth feature as much, as I feel like there can be connectivity issues but overall I really enjoy using it.

    40 X zoom is great, easy to set up and controls are all on the right side of the back. Pop up flash is not sufficient in extremely low light.

    I bought this camera for a trip to Egypt and Jordan. I wanted to camera that would have a good range of zoom and take good quality photos but didn’t weigh very much. This camera delivered! It also has a feature for a recording video and there is a beautiful leather case sold on Amazon that fits this camera perfectly. I wore it around my neck and I didn’t have any pain as I suffer from neck problems. Love this camera!

    I love this camera! I take it every where with me. Simple and easy to use. Great quality photos and I love that I can get them via Bluetooth/wifi right away in my phone or laptop. Battery last quite a while. This is like the little sister to the Cannon G7X.

    I've had Canon point and shoot cameras before, and this operates just like the others. However, I really like the optical zoom and the image stabilizer - great features that enhance the value of the camera. Also, the tilt screen in the back is nice to have so far as well. I still have to try out the wifi connectivity to my phone, but assuming that's easy to us, this camera will be a great find for years to come

    Bought this right before vacation for the 40X and it really came through. Have some very nice pictures of details that I could not even see well. It is hard to hand stabilize but knew that going in and don't have time to set up tripod for fast pics. Still got some great shots. Has been pretty easy to understand even for a non technical person like me. Only compliant is recovery time after taking a shot is slow.

    I bought this for my wife to take on an African photo safari. Weight and space restrictions were a real consideration. The pictures she came back with are amazing. The most astonishing feature is the 40x optical zoom. What appear as tiny dots in the distance transform into clear, sharp enlarged images of African wildlife. The focus is so crisp and the exposure makes the images "pop". I'm so glad she had this camera as compared to using a cell phone or tablet.

    I've brought this after owning a more expensive dslr camera. And, this one took it's place. The image quality is unbelievable. I recommend this camera to any one looking to get into photography. It's easy to use and learn all the features. You're not just thrown at a complicated piece of machinery. It's amazing performance for the price tag.

    Better than an Iphone

    This beats taking pics with an Iphone by far, but sometimes the picture ends up blurry if not using flash or it is dark outside. Definitely worth it to get good photos, but don't expect crazy results if the shooting conditions aren't perfect.

    Love canon and the zoom quality in this small portable camera is excellent. I don't have to carry my big professional camera around especially traveling to places in weird locations so I don't attract attention but this one does the work and easily put in my pocket. Comes on fast and takes awesome pictures. I love the big LCD screen in the back.

    Have been looking for a camera that fit my photography requirements of convenient in size that takes sharp photos and has a good zoom. I needed something small enough and light enough for travel but still took the quality photos I wanted without having to lug around larger cameras and extra lenses. This camera checked everything I was looking for. Thus far it has been what I had long been searching for but was unable to find.

    Nice small camera. Great for traveling or out walking, where you would rather not carry a bigger camera. Takes very clear photos, with great colour. Also can zoom in well and gets a good photo of subjects like birds and other waterfowl. Had to buy a film to put on the screen to cut down on reflection glare, as there is no view finder, just the screen. But that was not a problem.
