We have enjoyed our Canon although the menu is not so user friendly...a bit complicated at first but after reading and figuring things out, it's fine. The optical zoom is very good and the 9 megapixels are just right. We're satisfied and would recommend it to others.

I own 3 Canon(2 portable, 1 SLR D40) but I am really surprised with the pictures of this current one. Pictures are sharp, bright color and excellent contrast. Some of its are really better or equal my D40.

Records video and takes nice pictures for a point an shoot. As a professional photographer carrying a large camera isn't always an option for gatherings of friends and family. The menu's are well laid out and simple enough so anyone can pick the camera up and play. You can view the photos on the screen without having to turn the actual camera on which is nice. The zoom is perfect for most indoor use as well as long enough for taking outdoor pictures. The flash doesn't pop up on it's own which i personally like as it gives me the choice of using it or not. Runs for about 2 weeks (used almost every day) on 2 AA rechargeable NiMH batteries from Energizer. I use an 8gb SDHC card from SanDisk and love it. My only gripe is that when it came new in box there was a screw missing from the back of the camera. Nothing that would be a show stopper, I just can't believe Canon would miss something like that. (Which is why I use Nikon DSLR's. :) That was in jest for those of you Nikon haters.)

This camera was rated a "best buy" by Consumer Reports in the point and shoot category. I found it on Amazon at a very favorable price. Delivery was just as promised. Although the camera has many features that would appeal to someone who wants to exercise a high degree of control over picture-taking, it is very simple to use in point and shoot mode. I am quite satisfied with this purchase.

Just a note to anyone consider the A590IS camera. I bought mine and tested for 3 hours. This is to replace my older 3.2 Megapixel Canon A510 (Which is not a perfect camera, but quite a good one!)
Short story: Stay away from the A590IS, it is not better than the 3 year old A510! Very disappointed at Canon for putting out this subpar product.
CONS:
-Pictures are soft, almost out of focus. Compared A/B with the 510 on same shots identical settings at 3 Megapixels. 510 wins hands down.
-Plastic case instead of metal. Cheap and light feel. If it falls, it is toast.
-Screen is larger, but also are the pixels. So, same resolution at a larger screen = very poor poor LCD image quality.
-Most of the advanced features, such as focus review etc, rely heavily on the LCD, which is of poor quality, so the new features are useless!
-Uninmpressed by the Image Stabilization feature. But maybe I was expecting miracles here.
-No Panorama mode. (510 had a stitch mode where you could panel Left to Right and overlap the pics). I used this a lot in the old camera.
-Batteries and SD card in same compartment. When I take the SD card out, the batteries tend to fall out. Its just a cumbersome process!
-The so called 8 megapixels in this CCD are a bit of a joke. There wasn't a huge difference between taking a 3 megapixel pic and stretching up in Photoshop, compared to the same pic at 8 Megapixel. Very soft!

I love this camera. It takes very good pics and very easy to use. Just what I wanted. Would recommend it. I also want to say that Amazon is a very good company to buy from. I did have to return the first camera I ordered. Amazon sent me out another one right away and was able to print out a return label online sent it back with no problems. I also recommend Amazon for your shopping pleasure.

I bought this as a first 'proper' digital camera (i.e. not a mobile phone camera). It does everything that i expected of it - and it's really compact and stylish. Operation is fast and intuitive. The battery lasts a long time (a week long holiday without recharge). It has a viewfinder, which was one of the things I was looking for. Picture quality is fantastic and, not being an expert, I've simply left the camera in Auto mode the whole time. I cannot fault this camera at the price.

This camera produces images with TOO MUCH NOISE!
Here is what you can expect from this camera:

The noise is abysmal!

Don't buy SX10IS!

This is an excellent camera for the money. We were previously using a Canon PowerShot S30 (3.2 MP) for many years, and it was time for a new one. Of course, considering our old camera, any modern camera would be an improvement, but this one in particular is fantastic for many reasons. I have large hands, and hate the puny "cigarette pack" cameras with the tiny buttons. This one is large and the side grip (on the right side of the camera while holding it) is very comfortable and secure - even though it has a wrist strap I know I'll never drop it. Add to that that I've taken several photos and movies with it without even opening the instruction manual, I'm very happy with it. I believe after reading the manual I'll be able to do almost anything with it. Perfect camera for the casual, "point and click" user.
More pluses: Uses AA batteries (I use rechargeables but you could use ordinary batteries if you get stuck on a trip for example), takes SD memory cards (very common, all modern PCs, printers, and even some TVs use them), takes great digital mini-movies (about 100meg per minute, with a large SD card you can take respectable home movies)
On the minus side, obviously this is intended for the casual/novice user, makes a great family camera, but of course if you're a pro you'll want something more (and probably wouldn't be reading this anyway). It doesn't have a viewfinder, but I certainly don't miss it, the screen is large and bright. Also, if you're looking to put this into your pocket, it won't fit, so you'll need a small camera bag.
The only real problem I had with this was when I made a movie of my son's ninth birthday party, the candles caused an odd reflection in the movie - probably something to do with the lens. He ended up with 9 little dots around his face, even though the cake was in front of him. Not a real big deal, it came out kind of cool.
Bottom line: Strongly recommended for family use or if you're looking for a great value for the money. Having owned a Canon before this new one is great and I know I'll buy Canon again when it's time to replace this camera. Recommend going to a "brick and mortar" store and trying it out, then come back and buy it on Amazon - their price cannot be beat! And with super-saver shipping, it got here in 3 days!

Excellent picture quality and level of detail. The 10 Megapixel capability is well correlated with lens performance and does make a difference in pictures of large groups. Great movie clips quality too. I was a bit uneasy initially about the battery life but, using the viewfinder as primary means for framing, they last for about 250 pictures. I wish the optical zoom was more powerful - that's why the rating penalty. Otherwise, great!

I'm sad that I've had this camera for too long to send it back to the store. It has a very limited dynamic range and if there is any sunlight in the picture, light-colored objects in the sunlight have no detail. If I change the exposure, the shadows become impenetrably black.

I like this camera for the price. It actually has a lot more features than we use. I also bought it because it has the same memory card as my older power shot. One negative, the on/off switch is intermittent. The only other minor thing with this purchase is that it took longer to get here than any other purchase I have made on Amazon.
Still, as long as the on/off switch doesn't stop working, I think this is a great camera for the money.

The Canon Powershot SX10IS 10MP Digital camera is by far the best digital camera I've ever had... and I haven't even touched the surface on all the things I could do with it. It's easy to use and the zoom is unbelievable!

I got this camera for my wife for her birthday to replace her old PowerShot (which lasted about 5 years, incidentally). Overall, we're quite happy.
This camera's about the same size as her previous one, though it's lighter. I wondered about the plastic casing and whether it could withstand "active use." Already it's been dropped a couple times, and it has survived.
Image quality is pretty nice at 180dpi. Color is relatively accurate. We haven't used any of the in-camera fancy stuff (such as red-eye correction), so I can't really say much about that.
Anyone who is familiar with the PowerShot series won't be disappointed. It's the same deal, just with 8 megapixels. Canon seems to have taken the approach of "If it ain't broke, don't fix it," and it's working pretty well with this camera, especially for the price.

Returned the Canon Powershot A10000 IS for a Canon Powersot SD1200 IS. The Canon Powersot SD1200 IS considerably better for not much more money. If you want cheap plastic casing go w/the A1000.

I bought this camera hoping that could be so good as my old PowerShot A75. But it is not. Powershot A1000is don't have the same quality as A75 and the pictures are not so vivid like my old A75.
It's good for price. Even so, I would not buy this camera again. I would try, maybe, the CAnon SD1200. Or the semi-professional cameras, they are really GREAT!

You will not go wrong with this camera. It is the most versitile camera on the planet earth. You will not believe the zoom on this camera and how well it works with the image stabilization. You will not need to carry a set of binoculars on your hike. This camera is simply amazing. Very high quality pictures at the maximum zoom even without a tripod.

I am a digital SLR user, but since I use a long zoom often, I wanted a simple camera that I could switch to for quick landscapes, instead of switching lenses all the time. I really liked this camera instinctively; the size was small, it had a viewfinder, which is rare on compacts these days and it felt very comfortable to hold. The on/off was excellent, and the initial response was very good. However, after using it heavily for a full week I was dissappointed. Though I didn't do much reading of the manual, I have a digital SLR so wasn't too concerned about working the controls. I knew that the LCD view was not a great resolution, but it became more irritating the more I tried to review photos right after shooting them and as a result, I also did not realize that it's vibration performance was less than stellar. When reviewing my photos after uploading to my PC, When I tried to get to the menu to adjust the review timing (to shorten it), I couldn't find it and it was more difficult to tweek it's performance than I thought, even for a basic adjustment like slight compensation changes. As is all too typical a problem with point and shoots, it had a considerable lag time between photos. The biggest problem, which caused me to return it for a full refund is that the decals on the mode dial RUBBED off by the end of my trip. I'm saddened about this camera, since it seemed to have everything that I needed in a reasonable price.

Canon Digital IXUS 980 IS Camera - Black (14.7MP, 3.7x Optical Zoom) 2.5" PureColor LCD II Viewfinder
After reading all the reviews and with experience of a friend's older Ixus I finally plumped for this one. This light compact smooth and simply cool camera goes on every walk. The results are just brilliant, so much so, that I have just sold my Nikon SLR and lenses. Fantastic.

I was sooo tired of hauling around a digital snapshot camera and a camcorder. I've got 4 kids and we do all the normal stuff. Soccer, skiing, Disneyland etc. etc. Have you ever skied a full day with a camcorder hanging around your neck? Almost as much fun as trudging through Disneyland for a day with one of those things around your neck.
So I heard about these "dual purpose" camcorders that record onto a memory card. I read all the reviews I could find. But let me tell you, don't believe these guys who pooh pooh this camcorder because the images aren't sharp enough or they're not "true" HD, or they use some unconventional file format. If you care about that stuff, then go spend the $3000 to get that stuff. But if you want a pocket sized camcorder to haul around to the family outings, buy this. Still images are excellent. There's plenty of pre-programmed settings (snow, beach, portrait etc.), so you'll always be ready to go. And the video quality is unbelievable coming from this little thing. I got an 8 Gig card and I've never run out of space. I plugged it into my Mac and it worked without a hitch or any messing around with settings, cords, connections etc. Pure plug and play with iPhoto. iMovie imports the movies from iPhoto. The Canon software isn't bad either, but I seldom use it.
The ergonomics do take some getting used to. The shutter button is at the top of the box and it's a little tricky on the first few uses to keep the rest of your fingers out of the frame. The thumb controls on the back for the camcorder can also be tricky to get the hang of. But after a few uses, I got used to it and it feels great now. Be careful asking strangers to use it though because it's not your typical button layout for either a camera or a camcorder.
This is the best $400 I've spent in a long time. Replaced both a digital camera and a camcorder. And it's saved my neck, back and sanity on all those family outings I enjoy shooting.

I bought this camera thinking I had finally found the perfect one... Unfortunately I was very disappointed. I wanted a compact camera that still had long zoom and in that aspect, this camera was perfect. It is very light, good size camera and has the 10x optical zoom. The outdoor pictures are good, but indoor pictures along with the time between flash shots is what prompted me to return this camera and pay a little more to get the Sony DSC H10. A lot of my indoor pictures with the canon were either over or under exposed, too much light from flash or not enough, causing shadows behind the person or the face lit up with everything else dark... Also with kids, you can't wait 10 seconds in between flash shots. While 10 seconds doesn't seem like long, it really is with children who move on quickly.
Pros:
-Compact, long zoom camera
-Good outdoor photos
-Automatic lens cover (something I wish the sony had)
-Manual flash
Cons:
-I personally don't like using AA batteries, but I notice a lot of people would consider this a Pro item
-no battery life meter, tells you that battery is low right before it cuts off
-Ridiculous flash recycle time (I wanted a new camera for upcoming disney trip - characters come and go fast in character meals, I see myself missing precious shots!)
-batteries fall out everytime you change sd card
-indoor photos are either under or over exposed (too much or too little light) causing shadows
I would give 2.5 out of 5 stars but it wouldn't let me. If you are looking for a compact camera with long zoom, I would recommend checking into Sony DSC H10 or DSC H3. Professional reviews are not as good on the sony although I'm at a loss as to why. If you want a camera that you don't have to fool with settings to get good pictures - I definitely recommend Sony.

Excellent quality of pictures - but be careful this camera has a high drop out rate esp with the zoom out and is quite slippery. The Optical zoom does not work with video recording. The Battery consumption is too much. The flash recharge time is frustrating. I am going for Sony DSC H 20 as it has better pixels, optical zoom works while taking videos, feels more sturdy.
