If you are looking for a simple, low-price, reliable digical camera, I would recommend this camera for you. Two AA batteries, SD card, very fast power-on, face-detected focus, and very useful macro focus mode. If there is a weakness in this camera, I will say, the zoom range can be wider and deeper. Although the size of the camera is bigger than other fancy compact cameras, it is not too bad for a big hand to hold the camera well.

I have used this camera now for almost a year, and it is an excellent camera. The picture quality is excellent with accurate color and sharp images. I have not noticed any purple fringing. The barrel distortion at wide-open can be seen if you look for it, but is not noticible in telephoto (this is typical of all telephoto cameras) It is fast, especially when using the continuous shooting feature. I have been able to get good pictures of the kid's basketball activity at ISO 200 in a fairly dark gym without the flash by using the continuous shooting. This model has a huge advantage over the 540 because it has 4 AA batteries instead of two. As a result, the flash powers up quickly and allows you to take shots without waiting for 10-20 seconds. It also seems to last forever with 2400 mAh ni-mh batteries. The LCD display is easy to see indoors and out and has one of the best features of this camera, something that all digital cameras should have. Being able to rotate the display so that you can hold this camera over your head and over the crowd and still see what you are shooting is very useful. Point and shoot automatic mode works great, but I usually use the A, or aperature priority mode. There is visible noise in the images at ISO 400, but it's a good thing to have when shooting in dark places where other cameras won't let you get a shot at all. The flash is positioned off to the side enough that you won't always get red-eye, but not enough that red-eye won't be an issue in some of your pictures. (Photoshop Elements works very well for eliminating red-eye)
This camera has a mode where you can take a series of pictures for a panaramic shot and then stitch the images together later. It is EXTREMELY useful and if this is something you do, you will be ecstatic about it. The only software I have used that comes bundled with this camera is Photo-Stitch, and it works very well and even allows you to make a QTVR movie. If I were a realtor, I would use this feature for clients. I use a SanDisk Ultra II 1gig SD card with this camera and they work together well. The documentation books that come with this camera are very good and explain the features in a way that makes them understandable. They also give tips on taking good pictures. There is nothing at all about this camera that I do not like, and I have used it extensively. I have owned three other digital cameras, including a truly awful Sony W-5 and I cannot say the same about them.

I love this camera. It has enough features for a camera hobbyist and is simple enough for an amateur. The manual provided with the camera is very detailed and easy to understand. One of the things I don't like about it is the shutter lag time (especially bad when batteries are low). I like to take pictures of my niece and the camera isn't fast enough sometimes to capture some special moments. The only other thing I would change would be for the zoom to be 6x, but still a great camera. I bought it on Black Friday so the price was much better too:). I would definitely buy this camera again. I have some great pictures because of it.

This camera is really nice. I like that you can add external lenses (sold seperately) to the camera. If you are interested in this option, check out the bundle package from 49 St. Photo (sold through Amazon) that includes two lenses and lots of other goodies for only $100 more.
My favorite features of this camera include manual mode (or shutter or aperature priorty), auto rotates pictures, long battery life, great movie quality w/ sound, can turn off digital zoom, has an easy mode, face detection is cool, and you can add an external lens.
Cons to the camera include a little bit bulky, slow recharge time after each picture, and that's about it. I never write reviews but I felt I needed to for this since I liked it so much.

I bought my sx100IS camera from Amazon in March and the camera has stopped working. To add to it, I have travelled overseas and cant get it repaired under US warranty. When contacted Amazon, they cant replace it. I am in a fix. This model seems to have issues, I have always handled it carefully and it stopped working after leaving it idle for couple of weeks. None of the buttons,zoom work now. I can shoot the photo though. I am figuring out what to do with this camera. Amazon can you replace my camera? :(

I bought this camera to replace a cheap Kodak model which my daughter used for about a year before it broke. This Canon is simple to use, takes great pictures and has nice features. It's a good value, especially for a young or casual person to use. The shooting mode selection wheel is somewhat poorly made. It would be nicer if it clicked into place more solidly. Otherwise, we're happy with it, like the other Canon cameras we've owned.

This is a good camera for the price. It is simple to use and takes clear, crisp pictures. Also, the battery life is good. And the price makes it affordable to take good pictures.
Just keep in mind, that this camera works well if your subject is stationary. It is not for action shots. I have tried to take pictures of my kids playing in the yard and pictures usually come out blurry. Also, there is a bit of a lag time for the picture to be taken. Therefore, I have a tendency to miss the shot.

I currently own a Canon A80 (which I love) and was interested in upgrading to the highly reviewed A630. I received the camera in time for Thanksgiving and took about 200 photos with it in a variety of conditions. Everything was great until I got home and downloaded my photos to the computer. About half of them were blurry... but worse, ALL of my indoor shots had a lot of noise. I took some more test shots, and noticed that the "camera movement" icon came on every time I used the zoom on indoor shots or any time I tried to take an indoor shot without the flash. After calling customer service, I was convinced that I just had a defective camera, so I contacted Amazon and they were wonderful about sending another camera right out.
Today I received the second camera. It was no different from the first. I am a point and shoot photographer who is mostly interested in taking photos of my children... so I took a variety of photos using the same settings on both of my cameras (a80 and a630) then downloaded them to my computer for comparison. I even printed out several photos to make sure the problems weren't with my monitor. Outdoor photos were excellent on both, however there was a huge difference inside. In a well lit room with plenty of natural light from outside, the a630 still produced significant noise, while my a80 on the same setting (auto) produced clear noise-free photos. When my toddler was moving, I got mostly blurry photos with the a630 on auto as well as using the "kids and pets" mode, while my a80 produced crisp and clear photos.
I love Canon cameras, and this was my 3rd PowerShot. I really expected to love this camera as much as my previous Canons. Now I don't know whether I should even try to find a newer camera, if the inside shots are going to be like this.
Things I liked about the a630:
LARGE LCD
Nice quality movies
Scene assists
Great outdoor shots
Very accurate colors
Quick shutter response
Things I didn't like about the a630:
Poor quality inside shots with lots of noise and blurry results.
If I were a pro, I could probably figure out how to use the manual controls to fix my indoor problems... but I'm just a mom who wants some cute photos of her kids, so this didn't work for me. I'm sticking with my slow-but-dependable A80.

Good all round Camera. Used it in cold cold January this year and the weather didn't affect the picture quality. Went on holiday in August to humid, hot Bangladesh and was concerned about whether the camera would be able to survive the enviroment. Worked like a treat. Pick up and shoot. I've had the camera for about 9 months now and in that time, it has been dropped twice from a meter and a half high (once on concrete). Still fully functional, no broken bits just minor scratches. Great sturdy build quality. Anyone looking to buy this camera, I'd advise you to buy a case with it as it doesn't come with one. It's a gorgeous, user freindly machine and I take it with me everywhere. Carry it in my jacket pocket and rucksack, hence it has begun to get a few scratches on the outer shell.
It uses 4 AA batteries and I'd advise you get a good rechargable battery pack with adapter. Something with 2700mha or higher battery. I find that normal cheap batteries work fine but always fear the low battery indicator coming up when I least want it. Also bought a 2GB SD Memory card from Amazon for about £6 and I am still snapping away without having to delete any old pictures.

I've been an serious amateur (if that isn't an oxymornon) photographer since 1955. Four years ago, I went digital with an Olympus 3.2 megapixel Camedia. Love that camera, but started having problems (over-exposure in all modes, and contrast off especially in macro. After six months of study, I decided on the A620, and am moderately happy with my decision.
I should explain that, no matter how much investigating you do, you'll never know if you made the right decision. When I bought the Olympus, the choices were limited to perhaps four 3+ megapixel cameras. Now, with a hundred choices, your chances of getting the ideal camera are slim IF you know digital cameras at all. Sometimes, ignorance is bliss.
A620 pros: Easy to use. Menus are well laid out, though the primary button on the back of the camera could have "easier" more readable buttons. But once you get used to them, they're fine. Love the various special effects that you can add to your pictures. And even the movie mode will give a decent movie if you have a 1 gig card.
The LCD is fantastic, and revolved 180 degrees. Not that I expected to take a self-portrait, but I actually have used the easy-to-see (in most any light) LCD for all kinds of shots.
The viewfinder (a must for those of you who are looking at any digital camera) is good, and off by only a degree or two.
Pictures are sharp and the lens is as good as Olympus Zuiko, and that's going some.
Before I forget, I'd give Canon an A+ on its software. It is downright simple and though I might have to use Thumbs+ or Photoshop for minor tweaking, this software is a snap on layouts and printing. Many who have written about Canon's software call it "weak" or "for beginners only." Well, I'm no beginner, and it's a pleasure to get a composite print or contact sheet set up and printed in 5 minutes.
Portraits and landscapes are excellent. Closeups...see below.
It's fast.
It has the feel of a 35mm camera. It has some weight and it's comfortable.
The zoom is very good.
Cons: Can't turn off flash in Auto mode.
The macro is trickier than the Olympus and doesn't always produce good results. One trick is that you press the shutter button half-way before taking the picture, and you'll get better focus. Half of my pictures are macros, and I've been somewhat disappointed. I think that going to the manual mode is the solution, and that may put off most who go the digital route for more than just point and shoot.
The warning light for using a tripod seemingly comes on 80% of the time. Admittedly, we've had rain in California since I bought the camera, but I have no trouble keeping the camera steady and, in low light suituations, letting the flash do the rest.
I'd recommend the camera, but if you're looking for one that you can just tuck in your shirt pocket, this isn't for you.

I've only had this camera for a month, but I find myself using it more than I did my last one. I love the convenience of being able to use regular AA batteries. Another reviewer said it uses up the batteries fast and he was right! Luckily, I was expecting it and carried extras around while on vacation. I am not the best person with a camera and still take blurry shots, but I do manage to take some good pictures. Overall, I am very happy with it.

Easy to use, but also has options for macro, flash, aperture and shutter priority.
Range within each option is limited but will cover typical needs for a snapshot camera.
Quality is great except in low light. High ISO is almost useless.

This camera was recommended by a friend also looking for a point & shoot digital camera with a good zoom. I have been very pleased with the pictures taken so far. Camera is easy to use & I have been able to get great action pics of my kids. Zoom has also been great to capture kids in sports, etc. Even took pics in a low light setting with great results. Highly recommended for people who don't want to mess with lots of settings.

I'm not a professional photographer or even a serious amateur, though I do take thousands of photos. I bought the A620 about 8 months ago because I wanted something small but good to go along with my much larger new Nikon D50. Both cameras were replacing an old 3 MP Fujifilm and a Minolta film SLR. We took the A620 and the D50 on a major trip to the Canadian Rockies and several U.S. national parks. The D50 was my "default" camera on the trip--frankly, I was afraid to "risk" the shots on the A620, especially since there were many times when I needed a wider-angle lens than the A620 provides. Then, one afternoon, at the top of a mountain in Jasper with a spectacular panoramic view, the D50's battery ran down. I was crestfallen, forced to use the A620. For the rest of the afternoon, I worried and fretted about how one of the major highlights of our trip wouldn't be captured as well by the A620. Well, to make a long story short, several weeks later I uploaded all our photos from the D50 and A620, and the ones from the A620 at the top of that mountain were better! I was amazed--nicer color, sharper, just plain better! Now I totally trust the A620 and actually use it far more than the D50 because it's a lot easier to take along. I still prefer the D50 for indoor flash shots--there's a lot of red-eye with the A620--but I have to say, if I'd bought the A620 before the D50 and given it a good test run, I don't think I would have bought the D50, even though I really like it. Sometimes portability is much more important than you think it's going to be. I got the A620 brand new for under $200--it was a great deal and is a great camera. I think it's especially good for people like me who aren't likely to delve into all the intricacies of settings, etc., but still take a lot of photos and want them to look great. From what I've read of other reviews, though, both here and on other sites, this is a very nice camera for more advanced photographers as well. Good job, Canon! Next on my wishlist: something similar to this camera but with a wider-angle lens and longer telephoto...and, of course, less red-eye with flash!

I bought this Digital Cameras about three months ago because of the good reviews particularly with the image quality.The camera truly produce very sharp and crisp images however I have noticed that the camera seems to have a problem with action shots.I have a eighteen month old baby girl who moves about quickly and I have notices that the camera struggles with fast moving objects. None moving objects come out very sharp even at 10x zoom. Video quality is also very good. This is unstandable for a Mega Zoom or non SLR camera.
Summary
Pros
Very sharp crisp pictures
