I've really enjoyed using this camera so far. I came in looking for something less expensive, but [...] it's worked out great so far!

I have purchased refurbished products in the past, and this one did not dissapoint in any way. This camera appears and works as new. If you don't need the fancy box, it comes with all original accessories included. The camea is small, compact, great when you don't feel like hauling around a DSLR and has excellent photo capture. I would highly reccomend this camera.

Nice little camera, but pre-set functions are pretty limited compared to the Nikon Coolpix P4 I wanted to replce with this. So, I returned it and will look for a more sophisticated compact. But, can't beat the price and the excellent Canon technology otherwise.

Just bought it and glad Adorama has sweet pricing on refurbished quality products! Love the weight in spite of small size...still getting used to operational details. Using as daily companion when not lugging my Canon EOS 50D. Very intuitive touch screen operation - but wish it had a printed user guide other than just very basic start up (it's available via software only).

For me, the big plus of this camera is the lens zoom range that goes wider than most. In other regards, its fairly comparable to most other competing digicams. The menu system involves a bit more scrolling through the menus. I would prefer to have more direct access to key functions like exposure compensation and white balance.

My old point and shoot broke, and decided to upgrade to the SD 980 because of the wide angle lens. I've had it about 2 weeks and have been pleased with the photos. I am still learning how to hold it without clumsily bringing up menus, though these menus can be cancelled by a half way press of the shutter release. The camera's strength is daylight photography, and I love the wide angle lens.

Touch screen takes a little getting used to but the image quality is great.

I have two daughters who are falling in love with photography. The oldest will major in college to become a photographer and the youngest is getting her feet wet with this Canon 980 after having a Canon IS700 and a Sony P&S. She's able to use this more feature-filled compact in creative ways not possible for her before. We've got two Canon SLR's (digital) and a several thousand dollars worth of lenses and having this "little" Canon just adds to our family's enthusiasm for photography. I highly recommend it and think most will find it meets or exceeds their expectations. No, it is NOT a digital SLR, but it is a camera that can produce plenty of quality shots you can live with after very little post processing.
