"Smoking Hot Camera, Literally"

By utsachick

I dislike Canon's limited warranty that assum... 

Easy to use, great in all different types of lighting, battery life is long

The flash began smoking with each picture. Canon sent my camera back w/o fixing the problem. I will never buy a Canon again due to poor customer service. Google Canon + Smoking and read about others having the same issue with their models

"Poor Warranty fulfillment"

By Mickey McRoberts

Suggestion: purchase what is known as an "ac... 

Great pictures, beautiful design, titanium

Unable to repair my 11 month old, "in warranty" camera. Technician suggested that living in Florida could be the reason with its high ambient humidity! Final determination: water damage; no repair, no further explanation and no replacement

I have owned three different of these tiny size cameras in the last six years. This is the best by far. It takes much better pictures than my Sony and the Fuji that I had. It is small, easy to use and takes amazing pictures in all light

"Perfect purse & travel camera"

By messecity

For anyone who likes an SLR but doesn't want ... 

Absolutely love the size and durability of the camera and the quality of the photos. Having a camera that can endure a lot of business travel and be conveniently located in my hand bag is a tremendous plus

When the camera is turned off, the landscape setting is automatically reset to the default. This is fine when I have turned off the camera intentionally, but annoying when the camera auto shuts off as a power saving feature

"Don't Believe the Hype"

By twseeley

I purchased this camera upon the recommendati... 

Decent video. Decent pictures in close range outdoors with ideal lighting conditions

Terrible indoors. Red Eye reduction does not work even at close range. Built-in correction only works of subject looking directly at camera. Photos lack sharpness at all apertures indoor or out. No focal length whatsoever
