This is a nice camera to take along when you don't want to bring the full arsenal of camera and lenses. It is great for snapshots of family or events. It is small enough to fir in your pocket even when in a case.

Comments about Canon Canon Powershot SD1300 IS Digital Elph Camera, 12.0 Megapixels, 4x IS Optical Zoom, 2.7" LCD Display, Blue:

This a great camera for using some really great snapshots. For those who know a few things about cameras, it does have a bit of flexibility when adjusting the settings yourself. You are able to change the ISO and evaluated metering and the ability to use flash or not.

I also love that it goes down to a 2.8 shutter speed if it is needed.

Bought this as an upgrade for my technically challenged mother. The full auto feature is not as good as I had hoped for indoor pictures, but it is a fantastic upgrade from the A95 model.

Comments about Canon Canon Powershot SD1300 IS Digital Elph Camera, 12.0 Megapixels, 4x IS Optical Zoom, 2.7" LCD Display, Blue:

My 14-year-old daughter received this camera as a gift for Christmas. She LOVES it! She takes it to friends' houses, traveling, and takes pictures of family at home. She likes how it takes good pictures. She also says it is a strong camera as she has dropped it a few times without any apparent damage. She wqas able to se it almost immediately, right out of the box as it has intuitive controls. She has taken video with it and seems happy with the quality.
