I have had this camera for about 9 months now, and have almost no complaints. It takes clear photos, is easy to use, and the zoom is lovely. The only downside that I have noticed is that in some light conditions it can be hard to see what you're taking a photo of in the view screen. Otherwise - a good camera for an affordable price.

Great for slipping into your pocket where a leather case would be too bulky. Works well, and looks like a quality made product.
The only problem is that there is a metal carabiner supplied that is used to attach the strap, and this metal carabiner easily scratches the camera (in my experience) and so I've ended up removing the strap entirely.
A recommended purchase.

It's every thing I could ask for, it will tacke me a will to learn all of its feathures. I've used it at several family functions, when I used it correctly the results were great. I moved from Canon F-1s in the 35mm world, this has a lot more features and so lite in comparason. And its nice to be able to sit down the next day and review my photos, deleting the bad ones.

I was looking for a replacement to my SD600 that went down for the count with the famed 'lens error'. Not wanting a full-blown DSLR I figured this somewhat pocketable superzoom might do the trick but no luck.
First off, this has a manual flash. A manual flash...in 2009? Why?
Second, this is bulkier to carry around than four SD600's, that's right, four of them!
Third, the LCD is set waaay too bright, even on the dimmest setting. Goodbye battery life...
...and fourth, since I'm on the batteries, it conveniently runs off 2 AA's but the flash recharge time (time between shots) is the slowest of any camera I've used in over 20 years - film or digital! While the flash is recharging, you can't even take other non-flash pictures. Sigh, why Canon, why?
As a result of the flash recharge and screen brightness defects I returned the camera after just one day. For what it's worth, the few pictures I took were reasonably clear but even with the image stabilization they were no better than those taken with my old SD600. Back to the drawing board for me. If you can live with it's shortcomings, the superzoom is nice, but I found the deficiencies too much to bear.

My husband purchased this camera for me after I researched it on Consumers Report and read the reviews here. My son recently took this to Europe on a 3 week trip - took 2500 photos and loved it. Easy to use, great photos - awesome. The size is perfect - not too large - great zoom - which is one of the main reasons I wanted this camera. I wanted something easy, but with a nice zoom feature. He took video and loved that feature as well. I am very happy with it - since I want something easy to use - this fit the bill as well as the awesome photos it took. I hate reading manuals - but this was easy to figure out and the manual helped a lot.

For thu low $200 range, this camera CANNOT BE BEAT! the electronic processing on this camera is VERY fast. You can take as many pictures in a row (burst mode)as you want and when you're done, there's no processing time. the camera will immediately be ready for the next picture. the video mode is great. the best part about this camera is that you get 10X optical zoom and 4X digital zoom for a total of 40X max. Getting this amount of zoom for $200 is unheard of. and it zooms FAST! I've had other cameras that take forever processing pictures during burst mode. this camera is a breath of fresh air. 2 AA batteries required.

I bought this camera almost a year back, and used for both indoor and outdoor photography. It worked well, gave me nice pictures. Also it has several photograhy modes, esp on the beach and moving objects etc, which I liked.
However on a recent trip to Florida, it just gave up and threw a lens error, and never came to life since then. I tried everything myself from removing the batteries to manually adjusting it etc., however it did not work at all. Now it is sitting dead and I guess I have to send it to Canon or take it to Best Buy for repair. It seems repairing them will be very costly. May be buying a new one will be cheaper.

I am pleased with the photos. Of course the quality isn't quite as good as with my Canon SLR, but still very good for a point and shoot. What really amazed me is the quality of the video. I was thinking about buying a new video camera, but I bought a 4 GB card and use this instead.

I bought this camera for my wife two months ago. We've taken lots of photos since then and been very happy with the results, especially given the great price (under $120 on Amazon - now being offered at some of the big box stores for under $100 as the new model has been introduced). We just wanted a simple point and shoot that was small enough to carry around. The Canon is not quite as flat and sexy as some of the others, but it is feature laden and effortlessly takes good pictures. My only gripe design-wise is the dial for changing the settings does not function as smoothly as I would prefer, in fact it is a little clunky. Unfortunately, last week it started making an unpleasant clicking noise when zooming, I assume it is a broken gear in the focusing motor. Now we get to see how Canon repair service works. If we have any nightmares I'll update this posting.

Major problems with battery life on this camera. low battery indicator comes on after just snapping a few photos. Canon deny there is a problem and insist we should use canon only batteries (which also exhibted the same problems.) I reccomend this camera is avoided.

This is an excellent camera for the price, but I was a little disappointed about one thing and pleasantly surprised about another thing.
I was disappointed that I couldn't manually focus as I could do with the Canon a510 that I purchased 3 1/2 years ago. This is especially helpful in low light situations. It's also nice to be able to check whether or not the auto-focus has focused properly...You can set the A1000 to "macro", "normal" and "infinity", but from there you have to hope that the auto-focus worked properly.
I was pleasantly surprised that the aperture automatically adjusted to the changing light conditions in the movie mode. You can also lighten or darken the light reading in the movie mode, but if you do this, the aperture won't adjust to changing light conditions as you make a video.
The camera is small enough to fit in a small case or pocket or pocketbook.
....I've owned the camera for almost a year now...I still miss being able to manual focus as I could with the a510. I was just out trying to take a picture of a spider's web. I couldn't focus on it with the a1000. With manual focus I would have been able set the focus on around 1 foot...Then an airliner went overhead. I tried taking a picture of that on 4x zoom and the camera would focus on it. If I had manual focus, I could have set it on infinity...Also, when it come to taking movies with this camera, I think that the a510 had a better microphone than the a1000.

Juat look at sample pics and compare to pics from cams that cost 5x more. It's a hard lesson for my Besenjis, but it's not the tool, but the artists' approach which counts. In fact, even if you own a more expensive or complex camera, you should buy this to "de-program your brain" from the obsession with gadgets.

This difficult to find camera is the perfect digital high-end camera for both a beginner and camera professional. It is a point-and-shoot for the beginner but allows the user to learn by overriding any automatic function and practicing till the desired pictures can be captured. I do not yet have an external flash, but the built-in flash works well. The camera has a built-in viewfinder; however the digital mini-screen on this camera is unique and more usable than on other cameras I looked at. The unique swivel feature allows for use at any angle to capture the expected picture. I am still learning about the features of this camera including the excellent zoom capability but I am extremely please with the relatively compact size and features the camera possesses.

I've only had this camera a short time, haven't even had time to play with it beyond the basic functions, but already am thrilled with it. Still shots of birds on the far side of the back yard are amazingly clear and focused. The most amazing is the close-ups, both still and video. After taking many pictures of a flower spider, and cropping and enlarging some, I saw incredible details that I hadn't noticed, even with my face 6 inches away from the real thing! The translucence of the skeleton, copper-colored markings, hairs on the legs... If a camera can get me this excited about a spider, it's got to be good!

I ordered the Gem camera case for our new Canon Powershot A1000IS on a Friday, it shipped the same day, and I received it on the Saturday, just before our trip...Prompt and excellent service. Good value, too. What more can I say? The case is well designed, and the camera fits perfectly.

Overall, I am pleased with this purchase. It is an excellent camera for my wife who wanted something she could easily carry around in a purse or a pocket, and is easy to use. It takes good pictures. However, for a 10MP camera, the pictures are noticeably less sharp then higher priced cameras I've used. I figure it must be the optics.

I have had the S1 & S2. This is a worthy upgrade. I did not think they would be able to imrpve the 10X optical zoom on the S1 without stepping up into a SLR model...then they came out with the 12X optical(S2 & S3).
I also love the wide angle lens. I can take a picture of a group of people in a living room without stepping way back! As far as I am conerned this is the best camera you can get without going to SLR.
The only thing I am bummed about is the size. It still is the same size(roughly) as the S1,S2,S3. I guess you can't have your cake and eat it too. How else can they pack a powerful lens in a small package. If you want a pocket point and shoot, this is not the one.

Purchased the camera to take pictures on our Hawaii cruise. The following reflects our requirements:
1. Small and portable with good grip (not too skinny)
2. Good zoom (3x or higher)
3. LCD and viewfinder
4. AA batteries
5. Inexpensive
6. Image stabilization
7. Good reviews from amazon
After considering other point and shoot cameras, my wife and I settled for the 590IS. It met all of our requirements and the pictures came out amazing. Almost all of the outside pictures had exceptional details. It made cropping and reducing picture size for sending out to friends and families very easy. One buddy (photographer) noted how well the Cannon took pictures inside the house....not too noisy (within 5 feet, further and you will need an external flash which is expensive). Another photographer buddy actually recommended this camera independently of my research. We are glad that we received this camera prior to the trip. We are truly delightful with the results. One note for those taking a lot of inside pictures. You will need an external flash unit (High-Power Flash HF-DC1 - about $100) to get good pictures beyond 5-7 feet. I will start trying the manual controls for some creative picture taking.

I bought this camera for a two-week trip to Hungary, without knowing much about it except for the customer reviews I read here on Amazon. I am so glad I went for it! This little baby just blows me away. It fits in a pocket. It's cute. It uses AA batteries, which is VERY helpful when you're constantly out and about and don't have time to charge a special camera battery. The pictures are very high quality for the camera's size - never before have I taken such accurate nighttime shots. I am legitimately obsessed with this little guy. No, this isn't one for the professionals, but for folks like me, who like to take lots of snapshots and only dabble in the more artistic side of photography, it's absolutely fantastic.

The form factor fits nicely in the hand when taking action shots on the run. The AVI format produces great video without any blurring unlike other heavier compressions. I recommend an 8GB class 6 SDHC card to keep up with 720p recording. Battery life is quite good and lasted at least a full day in cold weather. The separate video record button is very handy. You can record at moments notice without having to fumble with modes, dials, etc. The small on/off button takes a bit of effort to operate but not too bad. At least I know it won't turn on by mistake when pocketed. The stills pick up a fair amount of noise in low light conditions especially if ISO increases over 80. Therefore, I have turned off auto ISO and fixed it at 80. To be fair, the noise levels are consistent with other cameras such as the SD500 and noticeable only if you are used to the quality of a DSLR. Overall, this camera is orders of magnitude better than any helmet cam (hopefully, I can find a strap to attach it to a helmet or arm). The 10X zoom is one of the best features of this camera especially for sports. One slight annoyance is when I take a still shot during a video shoot, the video gets briefly interrupted (this does not happen in the sony camcorder I have). So far, I have taken mostly VGA sized video and reserve the 720p video for special moments (including those which I plan to extract still frames). Regardless, I would highly recommend this camera for any sports enthusiast or traveler looking for a pocket sized camera with video capability. I also plan to take this to kids soccer games which would allow me to capture a combination of stills and video (like I did with the SD500 but with a more powerful 10x zoom and stereo audio). By the way, the key motivator for me getting the TX1 when I already have a SD500 is that unlike the SD500, the TX1 allows you to operate the optical zoom during video recording. Also, the 10X zoom range and 720p capabilities are hard to live without once you get used to them. I do miss the optical viewfinder of the SD500 to help increase battery life and to get around washed out LCD screens on bright days. But that is a minor issue.

Great product and a great dealer! I started buying referbished product off Amazon a few years ago and I have not been disappointed. This camera is just like if it had been bought new from the store. The camera works great and is very user friendly. Plus the 10x optical zoom is a very handy feature. If there are any downsides it is that the camera is still a bit heavy, a little larger than I would like, and the flash has to be raised manually. Other than these it is a great camera and I would definitely recommend it to anyone else.

Make no mistake, this is not a point and shoot camera. While it comes with great specs, it is a bit harder to use if you're not used to that level of camera. I had numerous pictures come out blurry. The ISO almost has to be redone for each picture (frustrating!). The instruction book must be read, and even then it is difficult to remember what all the symbols mean. Some of the pictures appear grainy. The high def video takes up enormous memory. Maybe someone with experience with better cameras would love this and make good pictures with it. For me, there was too much dissapointment with it.

I've only had the A1000 IS for a few weeks and haven't mastered its use entirely but I can certainly vouch for the IS image stabiliaztion! Riding in a car over a ridged metal bridge that also has a railroad on it, I took photos of the road ahead and the moving train alongside as we were bumping along and: NO BLURRING WHATSOEVER! I was surprised that the images came out clear as a bell. I still have to master close-ups. They are not as easy to achieve as on the Nikon Coolpix 4600 I was using before but so far the quality of photos and colour fidelity is good. Easy to handle as well. I gave it four stars pending verification of the close-up capacity.
