Picture quality is excellent and price worthy December 1, 2008 Archana (CA ,USA) Pros: -compact and sturdy enough to hold and shoot without dropping. -Ideal for parents/elders who are not camera savvy -Excellent picture quality when compared to Nikon SD series and Sony coolpix series -looks stylish,esp. the gold color. -Image Stabilization really works! it is difficult to get a decent snap of my dog who never stays still and this time i got excellent shots with my cannon SD1100. -Lithium battery life is good and lasts for around 200+pics Cons: Flash setting are not accurate in certain light conditions. I ended up getting darker pics with flash on and vice-versa.(could have been my ignorance with the settings and I may have to read the manual again) -Battery/memory flap is very delicate,needs extra care while opening and closing. -takes more time to download the pics to the computer(I did not use the camera driver provided, I chose not to and it still worked) overall a good product for the money and the deal with the camera+memory worked out excellent
Really good camera for the price December 1, 2008 D. Boudreaux (Rockwall, Tx) We bought this camera to replace an HP r707. So far, so good. The Canon takes a really nice picture and even the video quality is pretty good. One difference we have to get used to is that with this camera it's not so simply a point and shoot. You have to press the shutter button halfway down to allow it to focus for a second, and then press it all the way down to snap the photo. But it's really not a big deal. The nighttime pictures come out really good as well. The menu system is a bit more complicated than we were used to, and navigation isn't as straightforward. When shopping for a new camera, we used the reviews here and also at dpreview.com. On dpreview.com, this camera had the best rating in it's price range. Overall, it's a great camera and a great price.
great value December 1, 2008 Ms. E. R. Hahn This is a great camera,I shopped around.The best price is here on Amazon. I discovered the video switch too. My neices were having a blast making there own vidoes. I showed them how easy it was to review and download onto a computer. I again am the cool Aunt.
Canon SD1100IS December 1, 2008 CBM (California, USA) We purchased this camera right before our vacation and were quite pleased with the pictures it took. They came out quite clear and beautiful even the ones taken from a car going 65 miles an hour. The only thing that we were concerned about was the night time pictures, they came out too dark, we are hoping that it's because we are still learning about the camera and what it can do, otherwise we are pleased with our purchase.

Amazing camera! December 1, 2008 A. Corliss (NC) I'm definitely an impatient person when it comes to electronics, so this camera was perfect for me! Easy to use, easy to set up, easy to download pics on computer! Love it!
