I am very disappointed in this camera. I bought it for my daughter for Christmas thinking it would last her several years. It has been 2 1/2 months, She has used it only a few times and the thing is already broken. The lense protector won't close and the zoom lense does not retract all the way. It does not take very good pictures either. What a disappointment. I thought I'd be safe with a canon but won't make that mistake again.

Have switched to E-2 Lithium batteries, they last a lot longer than the ones that came with it.

I would buy the same one for my self as well.

I took this camera on a 5 week travel trip across the US and got the most amazing photographs; even a professional photographer was impressed with the clarity, especially when we practiced "drive by" photography while speeding down the highway at 70mph. The only drawback is there is no view finder, so after trying to look through the flash attachment a couple of times, I figured out that wasn't going to work. The zoom is great, and I was able to get pictures of prairie dogs that looked like I was inches away from them. It takes great pictures inside without the flash (actually better than with a flash). If you are looking for a point and shoot camera that gives you a taste of zoom, then this is the one for you.


Also this camera drains the batteries quickly. I am using a pair of rechargeable batteries to feed this. Overall, I like this camera.

I haven't spent too much time experimenting with all the many features, and there are lots, but I have used the macro and taken some spectacular inches-away shots! I have also used the video feature which is fun.
I can't recall if the instructions say to use lithium batteries, but I went through 10 regular batteries before going to lithium and find it a must.
Overall, I love this little camera!


I delayed buying this camera because I was concerned about the ergonomics. I wear a men's large glove size but have found no problem with the physical placement of controls in relation to hand size. It takes 20 mins of shooting to get comfortable with the control placement, but I think that this is not an issue, as some have suggested.
If your interests are similar to mine, I think that you will be quite happy with this camera, as I am. As a quality check I carefully compared about two dozen still photos taken with the TX-1 with the same shots from a recent Canon SD700, also 7MP, and found the picture quality essentially identical when set to comparable zoom. Apart from the tradeoff's noted here, the camera performs very well.
The trade offs are: you get 10x zoom but a much smaller display and must "open" the display to shoot. That trade off will not be to everyone's taste but if you want more zoom flexibility than most cameras this size offer, then, you, like me, may be happy with it. Also, I don't need the long shooting capability of dedicated HD camcorders or their ability to shoot indoors in dim light. Finally, this camera has a weak flash, weaker than most pocket cameras and if you take a lot of flash pictures it isn't a very good choice. I avoid them whenever possible, so that's ok by me.
I love the 16:9 video format with stereo sound. Files are big, but since I rarely shoot clips longer than 30 seconds, I don't care. I merge, edit, convert all of them to mpeg-4 on my computer and they get small.
In conclusion, if you prefer the features that this camera uniquely offers to the trade-offs, you, like me, will probably be very happy with it. For me there were no negative surprises, just positive ones.



My wife wanted a sleeker, colorful and tiny camera. I felt that we needed a more jack of all trades model. So I looked for a good optical zoom (10x), and as much manual features as possible. I ended up with three cameras: a Sony, a Canon and a Panasonic. It didn't take much testing to see that Canon was superior in every aspect.
The menus are simpler than Sony's. The physical buttons are better placed and bigger than Panasonic's. The only thing that I will miss is to have wider lens. Both Sony and Panasonic have wider angles, good for that classic auto-photo with your friends in a club.
Other than that... My god. This camera is amazing. I didn't need the manual to figure the commands out. Everything is where it is supposed to be. You just navigate and the commands just appear in context of what you are selecting. So, if you are in full auto, you won't find controls for Manual Focus and flash. But if you change to other programs, these options are there.
The manual commands are great. The manual focus is almost perfect and the ISO options work perfectly. I prefer the way they built the flash: it does not open automatically when the camera needs it. It asks you to open. I hate when the flashes keep popping and opening without my consent. And also it is one more feature to break somewhere down the line. I like the idea of just opening the flash myself.
In the end. It is a little bigger than the models my wife wanted, but being an amateur photographer herself she didn't need much time to see that, for a few fractions of inches more, we had a better deal.
Oh. I almost forgot. The biggest problem, really, is the downtime between shots. These cameras need to be faster. It makes me crazy when I need to take a shot and I just have to wait while the microprocessor is working. Come on, guys. You can make it better.
Other than the speed issues... Great package. Amazing colors and lens. Almost perfect camera.



You can buy the Canon Digital Rebel XSi SLR 12 mega pixel camera for a lot less than this point and shoot camera....Canon Digital Rebel XSi 12.2 MP Digital SLR Camera with EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens (Black). The a620 is a great camera at 7.1 mega pixels, but it isn't worth no $700. (Unless you just don't care what you spend) Don't be taken!! I've seen nothing that tells me that there are optional accessories included on the a620.

I am glad I got a camera with a view finder as I have found on very sunny days at the ballfield, the LCD can be a little difficult to see details of what you are capturing. The viewfinder, though, shows you enough of what you are shooting and comes in handy.
The night scene mode really is a blessing as I have taken night shots with and without this mode, and it makes such a huge difference in night photography.
Speed is not an issue as well. I took a picture of my son jumping into the pool and I caught him just as he was entering the water. There was relatively no blur and it looks as if he is standing on top of the water!
I also took pictures of him throwing a baseball and there was no blur in those photos as well.
Again, this camera exceeded my expectations and I doubt that anyone would be disappointed in purchasing this camera. Plus it's hard to go wrong with Canon's quality.





I don recommend that you read the book to get a better understanding of the uses and you will need to buy a stronger flash if you plan on taking photos that require the camera lighting from more than 20feet away.
