A luck thing jumping price2009-05-01
I purchased this cam for my wife in 2007, I wanted something inexpensive but gets the job done. I've been buying cannon cameras for years now and this one does not disappoint, picture quality, battery life, size all top notch. I read a lot about lens jamming and expensive repairs, I suggest you get a warranty for it, I guess a few out there are lemons. Oh, I would like to also add, I purchased this camera new for $213.51 on 2/5/2007, the price tag on it now is steep, more then double, no longer and inexpensive camera. At this price I won't buy it again, five stars then, four stars now.
Great ittle camera2009-02-22
I bought this camera about 2 years ago. It's been a great little camera. It is a point-and-shoot, with the usual limitations of such (why are you complaining about a P&S camera not shooting in RAW, or not being able to adjust aperture and shutter speed? If you want those capabilities go buy a Digital Rebel, they're not that much more expensive!). It's cute and small, and in most settings takes pretty great pictures. I LOVE the macro mode, and also use this camera to take short video clips of my 1 yr old all the time (got a 2g memory card to hold lots of footage). I've also never had issues with the battery life-- I use the LCD screen constantly, and can take several hundred photos before needing to recharge. My only complaint is the flash can be a bit weak, and it would be nice to have an indicator of how much battery life you have left before it's truly low, but again I see this as kind of standard P&S problems.

It's been pretty durable. Only now (after 2 years of heavy use) did the screen break on me, thinking back I think it was when I had it in my back pocket while at the park with my kid. I will be going out and buying another Digital Elph camera b/c I've had such a good experience with this one.
Great pictures and easy to use.2008-12-22
This cannon camera and all of the digital elphs that I have used are of excellent quality. I bought mine to take with me on snowmobiling trips as it fits into a shirt pocket and is readily available whenever I need it. It has many settings for all light conditions and can even be used underwater with the right underwater case. It also has automatic mode that is just point and shoot, no thought at all.
Canon SD600 takes terrible indoor photos2008-08-28
My Canon SD600 is about 2 years old. It is compact and easy to use. Using Auto-mode, it takes great outdoor photos and high-quality video. However, its indoor photo quality is aweful - the pictures turn out very yellow. Even using the "vivid-color" setting, the highest ISO setting, and manually setting the "sunlight, cloudy, incadescent, or floursent" option, its indoor picture quality is still very poor. The pictures turn out yellowish and it is a real pain having to set the light setting manually.
Best purchase2008-08-18
I love this camera so much that I have read the entire manual (it wasnt the intention but couldnt find anything to read in my long air travel). It provides tons of features and options. Works fine in low light, etc.

Recommend buying a memory card which had minimum lag in writing to memory however it is not a must. I get frustrated with low writing speeds. I bought a "SanDisk SDSDH-1024-901 1 GB Ultra II Secure Digital Memory Card" with it. Its pretty fast in memory writing. My purchase was in December 2006 so check whats the latest and fastest available now

Printer Buying Guide
What kind of printer is best for me? Choosing the right printer can be a daunting task. There are several different types of printing technology to choose from, each suited for different needs. Printers come in all shapes and sizes, from tiny travel companions to workgroup workhorses; some are geared toward photographers, others are for multitaskers. And the many specifications for resolution and speed can be misleading. As a rule of thumb, inkjet printers are a must for long-lasting photos, while laser printers are best to produce speedy text documents. User types: Home user | Budding novelist | Digital photographer | Entrepreneur | Corporate cog | Frequent flier Home user  The home user demands a lot from a printer. The device must tackle everything from a book report to a newsletter to the occasional snapshot--all without breaking the budget. This is why for most home users, the best choice is a versatile and affordable printer, such as a small-office/home-office color ...
