Comments about Canon Canon Powershot SD1200 IS Digital Elph Camera, 10.0 Megapixels, 3x IS Optical Zoom, 2.5" LCD Display, Dark Gray:

I own many cameras including SLR's. This camera takes really nice pictures for a relatively inexpensive camera, better than some some other compacts I own that cost twice as much.

Comments about Canon Canon Powershot SD1200 IS Digital Elph Camera, 10.0 Megapixels, 3x IS Optical Zoom, 2.5" LCD Display, Dark Gray:

This is a great camera. For this size, it would be hard to have a bigger zoom, but that would make if 5 stars. Picture quality is excellent. Battery life is great and ease of use out of the box is a big plus. It is easy to figure out the buttons and options. Like all other Canons.

Comments about Canon Canon Powershot SD1200 IS Digital Elph Camera, 10.0 Megapixels, 3x IS Optical Zoom, 2.5" LCD Display, Dark Gray:

Nice camera when you want the portability of a small, pocketable camera. Not a very useful flash, but that's to be expected in a camera like this. Very nice, good quality outdoor shots. The face recognition works very well. I purchased this for my wife so that she could have a small camera with her at all times. We also own a few DSLR's, but they're not always the most practical to carry around with you. So this fills that void very nicely.

Comments about Canon Canon Powershot SD1200 IS Digital Elph Camera, 10.0 Megapixels, 3x IS Optical Zoom, 2.5" LCD Display, Dark Gray:

FAST SHOT TO SHOT TIMES AT 1.5 sec. WITH FLASH ON 3 sec. 1 sec TO COME ON AND BOOT UP.I GET ABOUT 400 PICTURES PER BATTERY CHARGE. ADORAMA HAS A POWER 2000 NB-6L BATTERY FOR ABIUT $20.00 THAT I REALLY LIKE, AND REMEMBER THIS CAMERA DOES NOT COME WITH A (S D CARD)... A 2 gig HIGH SPEED SD CARD WILL GET YOU ABOUT 750 PICTURES AND IF YOU TAKE A LOT OF MOVIES A 4 gig IS A GOOD CHOICE.
