I love this camera. It's durable, easy to use, fits in my purse, and does everything I need it to to do. I've even dropped it a few times and it still works fine. In normal daylight, I always use the automatic settings. It takes perfect pictures. For pictures of my artwork, I change a few settings in the P mode, so I can adjust for the light and avoid using the flash. The macro works great and is easy to activate. If anything happened to it, I'd get another one either just like it or a similar model.

I bought the underwater case and the first time I took it with me for snorkeling I noticed some tiny cracks in the case afterwards. The camera wasn't lying in direct sun exposure nor was the water particularly cold. I had a disposable underwater camera with me as I wanted to make sure that if I don't get the digital camera to work in my first time snorkeling I could take some picture. The disposable camera was perfectly fine after my snorkeling trip so I think I had some bad luck with the underwater case. Unfortunately there is no warranty on this product so I have to hope the cracks will stay as tiny as they are. Still I am not very impressed about the quality.

This is my first foray into the realm of digital cameras because I've not been impressed with the quality of the pictures i've seen - at least in an affordable $200ish camera. Previously i've owned 2 SLR cameras with various lenses and flash attachments, as I am also NOT a fan of the small point and shoot cameras because I don't like their pictures either. But THIS camera is AWESOME. It takes beautiful pictures in all sorts of conditions on the AUTO setting. It has some really cool features like being able to make the whole picture black and white except you can choose one color to be highlighted. It is so much fun to experiment with. I bought it for a beach and Disney World vacation and i'm thrilled with the results. I took over 400 pictures just on the Disney trip alone! I've had several people ask me if I have a really high end digital camera, based on the quality of the photos and they're always shocked when i tell them the price. I feel like this is a STEAL! I've recommended it to others and 2 family members have already purchased it. It is really a marvelous little camera. The large amount of MP is not typical for this price range and the zoom is more than adequate (that's the one thing i REALLY miss about my SLR is the 300x zoom) but as far as digi cams go, this one has an impressive zoom. I really researched reviews and consumer electronics websites before the purchase. THis camera was highly rated across the board so i purchased it and i'm COMPLETELY satisfied. It does take 4 AA batteries rather than the typical 2, but the Energizer lithium batteries have lasted me thru more than 400 pictures, constantly reviewing the pictures (because they turned out so great, i keep looking at them), using the large screen rather than the viewfinder and constantly zooming in and out and turning the camera on and off. If that's still not enough for you, buy a set of rechargeables. EXCELLENT camera for the money.

This is really an exceptional camera. It's my third digital camera and the best by far. I run an online shop and bought a photo studio and lighting to photograph products. I have bought this camera purely for product photo's for my business, not personal use. The company I bought the studio from were using this camera and recommended it highly.
It comes with some great software for photo editing and you can link it up with your computer using the usb cable that's provided. You can then preview your shots in real time using the software and take the shot when you are ready. The results are fantastic and it's made our online shop look far more professional with the great photo's from this camera.
As I said I use it for work and haven't really made much use of it for personal photography but will if the rain ever stops! If you are looking for a good camera for product photography which can take great pictures in low light, can be hooked up to your pc, includes great software and seems to run forever on the batteries then this is the camera for you!

As a documentary photographer I dislike digital cameras and think that in all respects except convenience they are inferior to 35mm SLR cameras. But sometimes sheer convenience trumps camera build quality and photo quality. In that case, this tiny and fragile point and shoot zoom has some things going for it. Compared with similar digitals it's as good or better. Ken Rockwell waxes enthusiastic about it on his website, but then his photos usually aren't made under difficult conditions. If you need something like this, it's a good value. For closeups and middle distance shots, under good lighting conditions, the resolution is acceptable, particularly on a computer monitor. The Canon software that comes with the camera is clunky but better than nothing. The price makes it a good value, today. Like all digitals, it will be obsolete in a few years if it's not broken.

I like these camera a lot. It cost us less than $200 in circuit city and it has been great. We took amazing pictures for our wedding and travels and we are very pleased with it. It's easy to use although a little bulky.

I own this product for over 2 months now and feel this is the best point-and-shoot in this range. Actually there cannot be anymore improvements in this already ideal camera.Be it macro mode, or normal mode every shot promises more than what you preview or review. Why I say so? The LCD screen doesn't give the real picture, with its average resolution.
The camera has a turning LCD screen which gives you more freedom with angles and views.
The camera might be a bit heavy, and definitely not a pocket sized one, but that is probably its advantage. You get a solid feeling holding it.
Its just an amazing camera in all aspects, except for low light photography. The images are not quite sharp in low light, probably because of the absence of image stabilizer.
Other than that, I recommend it to anyone who is thinking about it.

This is a great product! I have never purchased a digital camera before nor consider myself to be technologically apt. However, after doing much research and reading all the reviews, I ended up choosing this camera and it is fantastic. It is very easy to use, has tons of different modes to shoot in, and incredibly simple to synch up to a computer and download pictures. And you can't beat the price! All in all, a great camera.

Terrific camera, but needs some tweaking. So many reviews say the ergonomics are bad and it is difficult to hold. This is not true, it is just different than other point and shoot cameras. You just have to approach it differently. I bought my TX1 for a vacation I am still on and when having strangers take my picture they have had no problem seeing how to take a photo. In short it is simple to use, takes excellent photos and videos.
The build quality and internal design on the otherhand...
I have had my TX1 for 3 weeks and it is already failing. The lens cover does not close as quickly as when I first got it. (sometimes it takes 4 minutes to close!!) Another big problem is with image capture, In video mode a small spot is viewable. This ruins all video. No problem with stills, but the whole reason to own this camera is to take video. After only 3 weeks of ownership having these kind of problems is not acceptable. I called Canon and will be sending the camera in for warranty repair. Having to cover the cost of shipping after a product fails so quickly is a bit disappointing.
If you can wait for the next generation I would.

This is my favorite digital camera of the 4 that I have. The zoom is excellent, picture quality is sharp and vivid. You can't get this good of an optical zoom on this small of a camera anywhere else. And I got a great deal on it at Amazon.

I purchased this camera about 6 months ago. So far so good. This is my 4th digital camera in about 5 years (I take about 20-200 photos a week). I started with a Canon Digital Elph 2MP. Right before my year warranty was up, the door for the compact flash card broke off and the zoom was sticking at times - but they couldn't duplicate the stick so they just fixed the door. 6 months later the zoom wore out. I did drop it several times, someone bumped into me with a beer and it got a little wet. Besides the sticky zoom, the camera still works but I need more megapixels. Then I bought the 4 MP elph and it lasted 2 1/2 years before the button broke (to switch between viewing photos and taking photos). Then a friend talked me into a Casio because of the longer battery life, big screen and he showed me the great photos he took with his. So I switched from Casio - BIG MISTAKE. I enjoyed the long batter life and big screen but the flash was week and a lot of the photos I took in dark dance clubs were horrid. The Casio lasted 6 months before the zoom got stuck when I bumped it - not covered by the warranty. I switched back to Canon but I wanted something with more control, more manual functions. So the Canon S80 seemed like the best match. It is a little bigger than what I'm use to but the quality of the photos makes up for it. The video is amazing - it's great you can take small videos, easy enough to email - or high quality video - better than any camcorder I've owned.
Definetly get a 1 Gig card, especially if you want to use the high quality video. So far the camera is pretty solid - no problems as all and I think the bigger size is easier to hold onto.
My only complaint is that the dial to switch between modes moves too easily. If I have the camera on the setting I need for the night, I'll have the camera on, waiting for right moment to take a photo. While I'm holding the camera, I accidently touch the wheel with my thumb and change my setting without knowing it. Then when I go to take the photo, I miss the perfect moment because the setting is wrong. That's my only complaint - if it wasn't for that I'd give this camera 5 stars.

Great little camera, very powerful and functional in a very small package.
The viewfinder is great to use on sunny days when you can't see the view screen. The features are many and easy to use. The 6mp is more than enough for 5x7 or 4X6 prints. I have a 2gb memory card enough for more 1000 pics. The only downside is the weak flash and very slow recovery time. If you plan to shoot a lot of distance flash this camera is not for you, if you plan to shoot rapid flash sequences this camera is for you. The 4x optical zoom is not very powerful so if you do a lot of distance shooting look elsewhere. Every other feature is outstanding. If you can get the camera for under $200 do it!

I have been waiting a couple years to purchase a new digital camera that would shoot high quality stills and HD video to an SD card. I made the decision to purchase the TX1 and I couldn't be happier. The stills have that crisp, clean quality that most all Canon Powershot cameras produce and the video is just as clean. This is one of the first truly high-quality hybrid still/video devices that is portable and easy to use. I do agree with some of the comments about the controls being rather tiny (and I have fairly large hands) but what can you expect when you are trying to cram a ton of features into such a tiny device. I also agree that the addition of an external mic would make this camera a perfect 10 but for most purposes that is not an essential feature. One thing that I don't think has been mentioned is that the telephoto (zoom) functions are -disabled- when you are shooting in HD video mode. Also, much like most cameras and electronics there are way too many features that I will never use (color replacement?). I'd love to see manufacturers start sacrificing features for quality but I know that is a very minor complaint. 9 out of 10 stars. Amazing little device.

Canon has always been a leader in the imaging field. When there is a lens involved, you can't really go wrong with Canon.For an inexpensive camera,this model is great. I have a much nicer and more expensive digital but wanted an alternative for those times when I don't want to lug a larger camera around and also risk something happening to it. My advice to those who don't know much about cameras- forget about the megapixals and digital zoom.That seems to be the marketing ploy these days. Get all the optical zoom (4X optical or more)you can for the camera in your price range.There is nothing worse than looking at a picture you took of something in the distance and not being able to tell what it is. Also, take into consideration the type of batteries the camera uses. If your camera uses AA batteries (rechargable or reg.) you can feel comfortable knowing that you will always be able to run into a convienience store or gift shop to get batteries if you have forgotten to charge up the last time. Tiny little cameras take mediocre pictures and have no zoom.That's where this Canon is a step above. Nice lens - decent zoom.

I was given a gift certificate from my son for Christmas and did not know what to use it for. I have had my 35mm camera for 20 years and thought it might be time to invest in a digital camera. The camera was a great price and I love it.

I am one to really review and investigate a product before I purchase it. We have had previous Canon digital cameras and as always Canon has upgraded and comes through with a great product. I bought this as a starter camera for my son and it has proven to be easy to use. The picture quality is good and there are many other options/settings that we have yet to investigate and try. The flip screen is amazing.
The two things that I would even slightly comment to the negative are: the memory card and focusing. As with all digital cameras, the memory card that comes with the camera is small. You would be well advised to buy as additional memeory card with your purchase of the camera.
Also, focusing at very far distances takes some getting used to. As you focus the image blurs then clears and sometimes blurs again before a final clear. It is important to make sure the image is clear on the LCD before you click the picture. After a weekend of picture taking we got used to this.
As always, even after surfing reviews and pricing, Amazon was right on with reviews, the best price and very quick shipping.
I am very satisfied with this purchase.

I've had other powershot cameras in the past so I knew I wanted to stick with Canon. I ordered this camera a few weeks ago because zoom and MP were better than my last powershot. I'm very happy with the quality of photos from this camera and the ability to change settings to take black and white and such is fun to play with. The lack of a viewfinder doesn't matter if you're used to looking through the screen as I am. Tho I tend to forget to raise the flash, but a reminder is displayed. :) This camera is definitely worth the money and the price is a good deal through Amazon.

I spent weeks researching which digital camera to buy. I checked out all of the latest ones with new features and higher MP or Optical but I always came back to this one. It has been rated the best and most popular so I figured since so many people love it why not join the club. I'm glad I did. I love this camera! It's my first digital because I couldn't stand missing another picture opportunity because I ran out of film or having undeveloped pictures in my camera for months waiting to finish the roll.
This camera fits all of my needs and allows me to print photos immediately with the help of my Canon MP530 which is also a great buy. My photos come out like I took them to Walmart or Target to get printed on Kodak paper. I'm using rechargeable batteries and bought my own 2G SD card. I'm completely happy and love all the features so if your looking for a great point & shoot digital camera this is the one to buy.

As a former newspaper photographer, I own several expensive cameras, including a Nikon F5, two Nikon N90s', a Nikon D2h and an Nikon D70 and several expensive lenses as well. I always like having a camera with me whereever I go, and frankly, it is chore lugging one of those around just for the sake of it. So I researched digital cameras that might give me enough quality and flexibility to please me and save me all the hauling. As a Nikon guy I checked those out along with a few other brands, but got caught up in the reviews i read about the Canon Powershot A620 and bought it on Amazon.com.
I am so happy that i did. It is a wonderful camera. I bought a Tamrac bag that seems to be made for it a Crucial SD usb card reader and a 1 GB card and i have studio over my shoulder if i am anywhere near a pc. I am totally impressed with the image quality and the control I have over everything. I usually shoot in shutter priority mode in superfine quality large and for most flash shots, undercompensate 1 or 1 1/3 stops on the flash and the results are outstanding. I have a wall of 40 8x10s and you couldnt tell the photos from the digital slrs from the powershot.
it so easy to use. I recommend it (and the 630 and 640)to all my friends and colleagues, some of whom will be shooting in program or auto modes for sure.
The zoom is ample and digitally at low iso's can get extremely close with good resolution.
The newer models, the 630 and 640 are tempting bc they are 8 and 10 megapixels vs 7.1 and they have a larger lcd, 2.5 to 2.0 but everytime someone offers to buy my 620 I realize that I can't let it go. It's just too good to give up.
I don't see it for sale new on Amazon any longer, so maybe the new ones are what you may be looking at, and if the powershot 630 and 640 are really the 620 just evolving even more, then I dont imagine you could go wrong.

I was using Canon A610 before buying this camera and was extremely satisfied. I thought of upgrading to some advanced camera and bought SX100 IS but am not impressed at all. It has a very slow response time between shots. Picture quality is also not very impressive. Another problem is its flash. It has a pop-up flash which needs to be poped out manually. There are great chaces that you will foret to pop it out and would loose precious shots..huh!
I'm returning this camera.

I purchased this camera to have a Point and Shoot available when the occasion doesn't call for a full blown 9-10 megapixel DSLR-type like my Fuji S9000. Fujifilm Finepix S9000 9MP Digital Camera with 10.7x Wide Optical Zoom The Canon shoots amazingly fast and produces a large format photo right out of the box. I like the Canon menu tree - it's easy to know where you're going for settings. The LCD is bright and crystal clear. The Canon DIGIC II electronics are worth Googleing and reading about.
The selling point that persuaded me to buy the A550 7.1MP is the TTL Optical (Through The Lense) vuefinder. Most other PnS cameras leave you with only a LCD screen to vue through...I find them awkward and not true when composing a shot.
SD media is the most inexpensive and available on the market. The A550 can use SD, SDHC and MMC. A couple 1Gig pieces should serve you well, the faster writing the better - DON'T SKIMP HERE. A slow writing media card will bother you eventually.
Arm yourself with 3 or 4 changes of rechargeable batteries and go shoot the world, or at least try. Read your Manual - download one from the Canon site to browse while on the computer. You'll find this camera is about as versatile as they come.
