Canon PowerShot SD1100IS 8MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom (Brown)
I own and am a huge fan of the Canon Digital Rebel SLR and think that it takes great pictures. Unfortunately, there are times when a larger camera with all of it's accessories and lenses can be prohibitive. In preparation for an upcomming event where I would be a participant as well as spectator, I realized that I would be unable to carry around my Rebel.
So, I spent several ...

I love this camera!
Some people might say (or complain) that this is not a simple point and shoot camera, but if you leave the camera in the auto setting--this camera is as good as they get. Those complainers might want to consider a disposable camera instead. This is not as complicated as using those $1k+ cameras. The manual setting allows you to different things like stitching multiple pictures if you're trying to take a wide scenic pictures, auto focus, video, etc. I really didn't know what to expect from this c...

I LOVE LOVE LOVE IT
This camera is awesome. I LOVE the color and its the perfect size and weight. The pictures come out great. The menu is easy to understand. Ive already gotten so many compliments on how nice it is!!!! Im not sure how the battery life is yet since I just got the camera...seems good so far. This camera was pricey but I love it so much it was definitely worth it.brbrThe only downfall is that you have to buy an additional memory card the 32MB card that comes with the camera only holds about 8 pic...

Stopped Working After 6 Months Because of Production Flaw
This camera worked well after six months, but in the past week, after the camera opened, it stayed open and beeped, saying "Lens error, restart camera." Google this term and the Canon 1100IS and you'll see many people with the same problem.
A shame since I've bought numerous Canon cameras over the years and have found them to work flawlessly. There's even a class-action suit over this to get them to acknowledge the problem with the 1100IS. Google that and you'll find info on that...

Delivered results, easy to use
I bought the camera just 3 days before leaving for Spain. The directions were adequate and the camera is really easy to use. I not only shot photos on automatic but used the night and color options, as well as did a few movies. The software was essential because I prefer more contrast to my photos and the software allowed me to customize the images as I liked.
It was not clear to me on Amazon that the camera came with a recharger (it did) so I purchased a recharger. Turned out t...

Good Results for Its Size, BUT...
This camera is unremarkable in its output, but is rich in features. It makes a good traveling camera, but if you decide on it, I'd set the image compensation to +1. Set at zero, the images tend to lack contrast and rich saturation. This is true with most cameras, both digital and print. The extra boost in exposure fills in shadow detail and boosts color saturation. Owners also should invest in a copy of Adobe Photoshop Elements, if they don't have it already.
If you can cart around a...

overexposes, a bit slow, and background audio too loud, otherwise nice
There are three annoying problems that I can see so far, otherwise the camera seems nice. The first problem is that in auto, the camera tends to overexpose so that whites are badly lacking detail. The second is that the background audio in movie mode is loud, so that if you're taking a silent movie, even a very mild wind sounds like your movie was taken during a hurricane. The third is that the recovery time is a bit slow so that the time lag before you can zoom the lens or take the next picture...

Canon SD 1100IS
Very nice camera, good quality from Canon. Only thing I don't like is the short life of battery which need to recharge daily on the trip. You should have 2-3 spare batteries on hand.
