Helpful consumer’s review
No fast shutter is kinda bummer and no changeable iso is a real drag, but other than that another fine canon product.
the battery compartment will snap off and break in a year as it is very flimsy and not easy to open. it “slides” open for access to AA battery and sd memory card.
I wanted it for the AA battery usage as where can you not get AA’s if your nicads run low?
Screen is a nice size. easy controls, flash is kinda tricky for fill lighting.
picture sharpness is ok, not as good as my old sony digi cam. I like to have manual controls and this camera does not have that feature, no biggie for a point and shoot, however it’s nice to have control in tricky lighting situations.
Like i said the bigest drawback it the way they made the battery door. it will break! no way around it. it is that poorly made. cheap flimsy spring and a thin plastic door make for that disaster to come.
for 200 bucks it’s a nice camera for the quick point and shoot use that i needed for kids or other non pro to use.
I did not try enclosed software as i use google picasa for that.
for 200 bucks the competition is slim and this is the tops for the price range with a must have AA battery for me.
