    Bought it mostly because of the low price. Good quality and easy to use. I like to take pictures and videos but I am quite the amateur at it. It has made taking quality pictures and videos very easy.

    Takes nice pictures, especially standard not moving pictures and close up are good if it focuses. BUT I'm disappointed in it's zoom capabilities (tried to send example but it was to large, which tells me I was asking for a high quality picture). It takes too long to focus for the next picture (can't find what to focus on) so I miss the shot. It stinks at special effect shots (like shooting through an abbey window at a castle. The castle burned out-and it was an overcast day). Every time it started to sprinkle I was concerned about moisture and wouldn't take it. We were leaving on a month long vacation and my other camera (6 years old) started acting up. I didn't have time to come up with more money to get a better one; thought this would do the trick. Kind of disappointing and wish I could have a do over.

    I like using this camera. It came in and was easy to use and get started. It is a great camera for a beginner or someone who has been using a digital camera for years.

    This Canon DSC-H300 Point & Shoot Camera does a very good job for the price. Don't expect the same quality as you would for a DSLR or A Mirrorless Sony. If you require more professional photos in a Point & Shoot consider stepping up the RX series. But This does take very good photos and great for Vacations and general use

    I bought this camera for my grandpa who's in his late 80's. It's a good size for someone with big, somewhat clumsy hands. I like that it comes with a neck-strap and has a "simple" menu mode. It also has a lens cap that is attached to the camera, so it cannot be lost. My grandpa was able to take pictures, upload them to his computer, and e-mail them. The pictures he took are really sharp with good color. Another bonus is that is uses normal AA batteries, so when they drain out, replacing them is easy. That said, there are some cons: - The battery/SD card compartment cover is not easy to open/close and feels flimsy. - It's not incredibly obvious which way the batteries are supposed to be oriented. There are markings in the battery slots, but it's very hard to read.

    This Camera is not for Everyday

    This camera worked very well, however I use my camera almost every day and it eats up "AA" batteries like candy. I had to put new batteries in the camera every day, which can get very expensive. Definitely buy the "AA" lithium batteries made specifically for a camera because I used normal Duracell batteries. I ended up returning the camera and buying the next model up that had a rechargeable lithium battery.

    I bought this point and shoot camera for basic photo taking of real estate. Works as expected with clear photos but now the real test starts, quality. Would have been nice if I could change out the lens but I was not going to spend twice what I paid or more. I have not taken video so I can’t say anything about that feature.

    I went into the store with the mind set of buying a new camera. When I got to the camera section, there were so many different types. After spending about an hour or so, I found this one! I looked at the different specs in store and finally decided to purchase this one. I am so glad I did. This camera is what I wanted and more. The optical zoom is perfect and it takes outstanding pictures! If you are in the market for a new camera please consider purchasing this one, I promise you will not be disappointed.

    It is easy to use, very short learning curve. The first time I used it was at a large family birthday gathering. It took some very clear shots and the zoom was fantastic.

    Great Camera for Arthritic Fingers

    This camera was purchased as a gift for my mother who suffers from arthritis in her fingers. Most point and shoot cameras are far too small and have the buttons too close together for her to be able to use, but this one worked beautifully! Not a lot of extra bells and whistles she won't use, just a basic point and shoot digital camera!

    Perfect camera for the price: takes excellent pictures, good video (with impressive sound capture quality), and great features. Cons: the pop-up flash is not very sturdy, I can see my family breaking this in the near future.

    This was a first camera in a long time for our family. Have been using phone cameras, but wanted to capture some more action and distant shots of family. This takes great photos and is easy to use and understand. There is more that it can do, but still learning. Easy point and shoot with many more options to explore!
