I bought it for me, but my husband uses it more than I do. It has a terrific lens and produces high quality digital images. This is the 3rd Poweshot I've owned in 12 years; it's much smaller and lighter than previous models and has a 20X lens. I mostly work close and wide; it's got good wide angle and macro functions. Only mediocre battery life. It's my only complaint; the camera would earn that 5th another star otherwise. I am glad this bundle included a spare. Keep at least one charged spare with you; you will need it. This is the camera I toss into my bag if I don't want to bring one of my bigger, more expensive cameras with me. It produces results good enough that if I had no other camera, I could work with this alone. It doesn't shoot RAW and lacks a viewfinder, but it has a great lens and more than enough options. It's a very intelligent iAuto that gets the picture you want and requires only minimal fixing in post-processing. It's a camera to enjoy. No fuss or worry. Exactly what I wanted!
