This camera appears to me to have been designed by an egghead who values pixels far above f-stops.
The camera's programming is guaranteed to give blurry pictures anytime you shoot without a flash in anything less than full sunlight. Let me give you an example: I just stepped outside at 4pm on an overcast day. It's daylight outside, but no direct sunlight. I turned the flash off and pointed the camera at grass, light colored wood fencing, and a white dog. You know what the camera used? f 5.6 & 1/12. In daylight conditions, it chose 1/12 sec exposure!!!
Canon, hire a photographer to advise your code monkeys.
Reader, do not buy this camera if you have any intention of ever turning the flash off.

It takes excellent pictures, saves photos rapidly, cycles quickly to allow rapid photography, and is more frugal power wise so batteries take more photos. Its movie mode is so good, it competes easily against many digicams, but in a far more portable size. The movable LCD viewfinder is as effective as the legendary rotating lens made famous by the Nikon coolpix. Over 6 months old, my camera has taken some abuse and is alive and well. Some users have warned against jamming the lens mechanism, so I've taken care to insure the lens shaft is free of dirt and moves freely.
The built-in instructions are easy to understand, but the camera falls short of 5 stars because one needs to read the manual to understand the fine nuances of programming this camera.


Just follow your guts and you'll find the function you want.
But all the frequently used ones are right there at your finger tips.
I personally love the custom timer function that allows you to set a delay up to 30" and take up to 10 pictures! You never have to go back and forth...
Use Energizer e2 Lithium batteries and you'll be wondering if you have the camera in your hands as it becomes soooo light!




What i don't like but it's not a big deal is the amount of batteries it uses (4AA) but it compensates with the lenght of battery life.

-redeye
-no preset sport scene
-usage of AA batteries
-the cover for digital and SD card are moderate built








I do agree a bit regarding the wuality of the batter y cover as noted by another reviewer. IT does feel a little flimsy, but the camera itself is quite nice.
Will update this after this weekend when I get to shoot quite a few pics in varying conditions.
But so far, I am staying with the 5 stars.

And then you can always start investigating the manually controllable features and special functions when you get more ambitious...
Only drawback? The camera feels good to hold, but is too bulky to fit inside a breast pocket. So think about where you are going to use it and how you want to carry a camera around.

- It has a 4x rather than 3x optical zoom. It really is worth getting the more powerful optical zoom, as using the digital zoom (which does work perfectly well, to magnify beyond the limits of the optical zoom) leads to degradation of picture quality. Optical zoom tends not to.
- It has a smaller viewing screen than the IXUS, but the number of pixels is the same (so the definition of the larger screen on the IXUS 750 is actually poorer) and, importantly, the screen on this one swivels - allowing you to take pictures of yourself, to take pictures over the heads of others by holding it up but pointing the screen downwards, and to rotate the screen into shade so that you can see it when standing with bright sunlight behind you.
- The IXUS is a fully-automatic 'tourist' camera - the Powershot also has a fully-automatic setting but, in addition, allows a greater range of manual adjustments, should you feel the need to make them.
The quality of the camera is great.
I would recommend that you also buy a larger memory card. The included 32mb card will allow about 55 images at a decent (1600x1200) resolution (this resolution is actually the 4th-poorest of those the camera offers! - the large setting is phenomenal but perhaps not necessary for most shots). I just bought a 1GB card and it will hold 1750 of the same size pictures!! Useful for a long holiday - more so to contain lots of video clips too.

Problem areas:- The display simply washes out in sunlight,if you are taking pictures in flash mode the time lag between taking pictures can be as long as 4 seconds..which can be irritating at times, it works fine without the flas mode on. You can take upto 10-12 mins of video with 1 gb card, i was expecting a 1 GB card to take a much longe video....
But overall I would give the camera 8/10
