I've only had the camera for 2 months now, I'm not a pro but i've owned point and shoot cameras before and so far this canon have exceeded my expectations. i read some bad reviews before i purchased this camera. but i think all you need to do is read the manual before using it to actually appreciate its very wide array of features..but if you're one of those people who likes to jump into the pool right away, i dont think this one is for you.

Bought the camera early summer 2006.
Reasons:
- Wide angle lens. Not many point and shoots have this.
- It has the CANON Digic II processor. The same as the high-end CANON SLRs. Great processing. Not another company has a better one, not even NIKON.
- Extensive advanced controls. This has just about every setting you could hope for. I use all except the built in scene settings. I prefer to set my own exposures, aperture, shutterspeed, ISO, etc... This would also be good for a newbie.
- Compact. A lot of capability in a little space.
- Underwater housing available.
I bought the underwater housing. I vacationed in Hawaii and fully tested it scuba diving. It perfomed flawlessly. The underwater pictures (I took about 700) turned out great. I used it as deep as 80 feet, great pix. It is great for snorkling, too. I recommend buying the weight for the housing. I have it. It attaches to the tripod mount on the bottom of the housing. It gives the rig a neutral buoyancy.
The camera is a work horse.
I took over 2000 pictures in 14 days in Hawaii. Since then, I have taken about 6000 pictures with it in Miami, Seattle, Alaska (Juneau, Sitka, Anchorage) to name some highlights. It does seem a little fragile compared to my film camera, a CANON A-1 that has seen much abuse and much of he world and is still producing great photos. What I mean is that you have to take care to not beat it about. I had long ago read about the lense door opening in a pocket, so I am careful not to let that happen. My experiance with the S80, using the heck out of it, is it hasn't broken, even dropping it a few frightening times.
Cons:
- No stability assist or anti-shake. This may cause new photographers some heartache.
- The mode selector on the side can easily be turned and cause a screwed up shot (just be aware).
- The battery door opens by sliding. There is no locking device on it that would prevent it from accidentally opening. I have occationally, accidentally, opened the battery door right after a shot. I thought it may mess up the writing of the picture from the buffer to the storage card, but it never did.
- No RAW mode. If you need it, don't buy this one.
Overall, this is an outstanding camera for the price. It takes outstanding pictures and has stood up to my extensive use so far. It is good for advanced photographers that want a point and shoot as well as for beginners.
Highly recommend it.

Ive had this camera about a year now, and I really, really would have loved to give you a 5-star, glowing and gushing review of the thing. I want it to be more than it has turned out to be. I will it to be more than it is. In spite of all the karma I throw into it, it is, and it pains me to say it, "OK"....not more. It durability? Well, thats another story...
I fell in love with the S series with a S70 I bought, but our relationship was suddenly terminated when I discovered that S70s vanish into thin air when left on a table and the owner's back is turned. (Re: my gushing review of it on Amazon) Replacing it was a no-brainer, but since the S80 was due to be released in a matter of weeks I held out for the upgrade. Curiously, when it first came out it was waaay cheaper than it is now.
PRO The larger LCD was, I thought, nice. Like the S70, the S80 is a good example of how many features can be crammed into a point and shoot. Its kinda like a handheld Photoshop CS...more features than any one user will probably use in its life. There are many other features in its favor that other reviewers cover, so I'll leave that to them. I'll just mention that I was shooting a neighbor's wedding the other night and my 8 yr old daughter wanted to take pics too. She grabbed the S80 and shot throughout the night. Granted, a lot of it was 8 yr old junk, but about a dozen of her pics came out well enough that I didnt hesitate to include them in the final presentation- and the bride loved them! They fit right in with the 8MP 30D I was using.
CON The larger LCD is, I now think, a liability. One day I went to power it up and the LCD was cracked. Hadn't been dropped or abused. Camera worked fine but LCD was kaput. Didnt think much about it and decided to send it into Canon for warranty service. WOULDNT YOU KNOW.. the following day I had it in my hand and was digging for keys to unlock a door when....Ooops.... away she went, down on the sidewalk, from about waist high. I picked it up and one of the corners was bent in and that pretty silver casing buckled up.
Canon warranty does not cover damage from dropping. I knew I was gonna have to shell out $$$ to get the thing fixed then. I was sure Canon would be skeptical about LCD not working before the drop, and I was right.
I doubt the S70 would have been so wounded by that drop. I have no doubt that the LCD was more durable.
I sent the camera to Canon via insured USPS and later they couldnt find the package in their system. That was the only time I hoped that the USPS lost a package of mine... I was gonna use the insurance money to buy another reliable S70.
Alas! A week later the email from Canon came with their estimate. The good news is that the service wasnt too terribly long or expensive. But the whole experience left me less than starstruck.
Other minor aggravations include the mode dial on the side, which always seems to creep to a setting other than what you left it at. The rotating dial on the back makes it easy to change settings, but it also easily slips a surprise setting change in on you if you arent attentive. This is a design flaw that other reviewers have mentioned.
When everything comes together, the S80 takes rich, vibrant pictures. But for the price it dang well better. That 'bling' (as another reviewer referred to) on the outside is purdyful to look at, but it dazzles at the expense of durability.

Nice image quality outdoors. Zoom is nice.
But for my purposes, the long waits between when the flash is ready is a showstopper. This makes it almost impossible to capture spontaneous moments. I generally respect Canon quality, but I'm afraid I'll be returning the SX110 IS to the store.

Have always been a fan of Canon, will always remain a fan as long as they make such wonderful products.
Recently had a chance to experience their fabulous customer service too:
Still have the PS A95 that bought 4 years ago which works perfect but had a bug (ccd malfunction) and they repaired it free of charge and even renewed most of the outside appearance. the warranty had already been expired 3 years ago. even Apple does not honor such a generous service as far as i know.

bought this great camera about a week ago, first shots were of the snow in las vegas at 20x, crisp and sharp, bought this camera to tag along with my nikon d50, pictures are almost as sharp and the ease of use and the size are just perfect, i agree with other reveiws that the function wheel needs work- keep ending up in manual or macro focus, all around a very well built and easy to understand camera, lcd is the best i have seen on anything in this price, the nikon will be in moth balls for any long trips to europe because this camera does it all- buy it you will like itCanon Powershot SX10IS 10MP Digital Camera with 20x Wide Angle Optical Image Stabilized Zoom

This camera takes good pictures for an inexpensive camera, but contrast is not as good as more expensive cameras, resulting in occasional dark pictures.

It does not compare with my Canon 50D but it is not supposed to. My wife has at last got interested in photography with this camera and is asking me what all the adjustments do. Sometimes it is quite sickening when she turns out a better picture than me!.

Problems with compacts are that they usually compromise in areas to provide an all-around product.
With the A640, there is:
+full manual control
+a sizable zoom
+quality black finish
+swivel screen
+powerful flash (well as powerful as my S3 IS but slower refresh)
+incredibly detailed macro
+10 megapixel sized images (making it easier to crop and edit as I like)
and some of the things I like such as an optical viewfinder, 4 batteries and a grip that I know some people won't like or need.
but negatively:
+it is bulky. this isn't a compact point-and-shoot to put in your pocket.
+the camera sometimes gets it wrong. Like with my S3 the focus loves to stick to walls and forget the subjects all together. A quick press to macro mode usually solves this though.
+red eye galore. canon's a notoriously bad at this but with things like Picasa and cheaper photoshop-type softwares this is simple to remedy.
+no razzle dazzle. My friends have samsungs and panasonics layered with different styles, overlays and all the cool trappings compacts have.
+unimpressive shutter speed. maybe it's using SLRs for a while but Canon compacts I find slower than I would like. But using other people's cameras I still find the A640 lacking when it comes to social situations and quick on-the-cuff photography.
But on the whole the camera is everything I wanted. It works as a professional camera that takes wonderful photos for my Graphic Design course that I can use to manipulate and play with (all blown up to A4) and can take a second job as a pretty damn competent compact when it comes to going out!

First, the battery life is horrible! I have yet to go one hour with new batteries or rechargable ones - having to replace batteries throughout a "daytrip" will be inconvience. The door to open for the batteries is very difficult.
The camera is just too heavy.
Too many options - will take a long time to learn the manual.
Recharge time with flash is way too long.
Recharge time without using flash is too long as well.
Hate to say it, the camera is getting returned.

I can't give it a full 5 yet as I haven't used it as frequently as I would like, but I will!! I have just had in the house for right at a month... It has a nice feel to it and the pictures are clear on the LCD. I haven't printed any yet, so I can't go into that as of yet. I CAN tell you, the little memory card you get with it, is insufficient... You WILL have to get a bigger memory card. The first time we used it with just the memory card it came with, we could only get 14 pics on it...SO, IT IS WISE TO GET A BIGGER MEMORY.

After reading the many customer reviews here, and Consumer Reports' "Best Buy" rating, convinced me to try the Canon Powershot SX110IS. Simply put, I could not be more pleased with the purchase. Everything about the camera is impressive - from the feature set, ease of use, price and especially the quality of the photos. Highly recommended!

The Canon Powershot SX10IS is a versatile mid range camera. The swival lcd screen is a nice feature in addition to the 20x optical zoom. A good fit in between the Elph point and shoot and full size Canon Digital 30D.

I received my first Power Shot as a gift. Five months later it took a hard drop and the screen broke. I like this camera so much and bought the same one as a replacement. There are so many easy to use settings and the Macro is excellant for close ups. I recently used the kid/pet setting which is now one of my favorites. I am no fan of complicated items.. This is so easy to use. I would recommend it and I would give it as a gift.

This camera produces great pictures and has several settings to use. After turning off all the silly noises that drove me nuts i use this camera often and am always happy with the pictures i get. I'll assume it's my rechargeable AA batteries that don't last long enough but it i never get as many pictures as i want out of one battery life. It's also probably due to the fact that when you have the viewer pulled out more battery battery is being used. Since it's run on 4 AA batteries this camera is a little larger than other cameras on the market, but the bulb created by the batteries makes a nice handle.

This camera caught my eye as a great replacement for my aging Canon PS A80.
My main concerns were battery life and durability. The A80 uses four AA's and good battery life and has stood the test of time. The A590IS uses only two AA's which makes it a little bit smaller, which makes it more pocketable, and with the newer battery technologies is very acceptable as far as battery life.
The A80 takes great pictures with a mere 4meg pix so the upgrade to 8 was not a selling point. The 590 does have a little bit better video capability which was a selling point.....and the recent low price definately sealed the deal.
At any rate this is a great little camera and should please most newbies and the majority of older Canon PowerShot owners.

So I picked up this camera for just over a hundred dollars... I've been very impressed with all that I've seen and read about it, but I have yet to manage anything spectacular with it myself. (Most likely a user issue, and not a product issue.) I was easily able to locate a cheap memory card for it that had no compatibility issues. I hope after our upcoming trip to Mexico that I can submit some great photos I hope I am able and capable of taking!

I definitely wanted a small camera to replace my Neanderthat Kodak 2 MP camera, but I did NOT want a postage-stamp-size camera! At my age (66), I need to be able to SEE the camera and all its push buttons and PRESS the push buttons correctly (I suffer from an inherited shaking syndrome), so this camera freezes the shot before the shutter operates. Just what I wanted! Takes great pictures too!

I bought this camera as a Christmas gift to myself. I've had it for a little over a month and it is by far been the best camera I have ever owned. I have owned your typical point and shoot digital camera (all Canon's), but this one is much more. The zoom is amazing and the quality of the pictures are very crisp and clear. If you're a novice like me, I strongly suggest that you read the manual before using. All in all I am very happy with my purchase!
