  Still a great camera....

  

  I purchased this camera a year and a half ago to replace my SD550 (which I gave to my wife). This camera had one of the best low light image quality at that time. This camera was definitely worth the upgrade from the SD550 due to its speed and preset settings and longer battery life.

  one of the best

  

  ive been using this camera in a variety of situations, indoors and outdoors, studio and field and am qualified as a photographer and artist to review it.
  i have found the camera to be versatile and portable with incredible image quality. the zoom lens has jammed as i have got send in it both on beaches in canada and in the desert in california but in both circumstances repeated openeing and closing of the lens mechanism has seemed to remedy the problem. zoom lenses are vulnerable in this way and i think all zoom lenses are susceptible to this problem.
  that said, the camera is amazing and worth its price. i would recommend it to any level of photographer.
  the controls require some learning however but patience will pay off in fine photography.
  well done, canon.

  Excellent companion for a travelers

  

  I brought my 5D with my fancy lens collection on my trip to Korea. Now almost 2 weeks into it, I've only opened my camera twice. This niffty little camera can handle most practical situations. Very good in low light situations (thanks to IS) and very good light metering. I have been very impressed with this camera and will recommend it to anyone in the market for a point and shoot. (This is my 6th point and shoot! None other have impressed as much as this!!)
  
  Aside from the fantastic picture quality.. few things I really like about the camera.
  - the power button is small and is hard to "accidentally" press. this protects the lens when it's in your pocket. I've broken several PS cameras in my pocket this way.
  - very inexpensive aftermarket batteries are available.
  - ability to delete images based on date range.
  
  I'm sure there are other thoughtful features I'm failing to list here... all in all, stop reading and buy.
