4 out of 5 stars Nice Camera   October 7, 2008
Traci Mcmahan
I was very pleased with the Amazon service and when I received my camera was also pleased with the camera.


5 out of 5 stars Great Camera for Everyday Use   October 6, 2008
E. Muxen (Fort Hood, Texas, USA)
I use this camera just about everyday, mainly to take pictures of my kids and send to my husband in Iraq and my family out of state. I'll admit that I'm not tech-savvy, so I was hesitant about picking my first digital camera, online no less, and learning how to use it by myself. The owner's manual was very easy to understand. The camera comes with a 32MB memory card, so I went out and got a 2G one instead (about 500 pictures). Since I'm photographing my kids 99% of the time, I always leave the camera on "kids & pets" setting, so I can't comment of the other settings (there are several). The pictures turn out clear, even in low lighting. I can download the pictures easily, edit them as needed and send them to family. For the price I paid, this is a great camera. If needed I would buy this camera again.


4 out of 5 stars Just what I wanted   October 6, 2008
J. Laskow
This camera is just what I was looking for and more. Quick service. No problems what so ever.


5 out of 5 stars Picture perfect   October 4, 2008
Wet Thunder (Sausalito, CA)
So far, I have only used automatic setting. Some pictures have been postcard perfect without even trying. Transfer to PC very easy. I like the somewhat larger size, because I can get a good grip on it.


4 out of 5 stars A nice camera but ..   October 4, 2008

First impression of the camera was very good (speed, sharpness, color rendition), but after short usage period the battery warning light came on. I started using rechargeable batteries, which I had from my old Cannon 610. This condition persisted, so I thought possibly new rechargeable batteries were in order. I bought the highest rated rechargeable NI-MH batteries available. They are 2700 MAH. But, after taking 15 pictures and downloading to a PC, the battery light came on and shortly thereafter the camera shut down. I considered this to be intolerable and sent the camera back. Did I just get a lemon? In my old Cannon 610, a battery charge lasted forever.
