PDA
2008-11-18After less than a month and about 400 pictures took it, I got a "Lens error, restart camera" (not the first one with this problem Canon should know about it so far). Without any drop or hitting the camera. I was on trip mad to not viable to take more pictures. There is no international warranty.

not too bad
2008-11-12Overall, bang for the buck, a good little handy camera for decent pictures and easy to use.

Great first camera
2008-11-11I purchased this camera for my 7 year old daughter's birthday and she hasn't stopped taking pictures since we put the batteries in! The controls are so easy that I only looked at the manual after I'd figured everything out. My daughter can also work the camera on her own which was exactly what I was looking for. The other huge plus is that it runs on regualar AA batteries, so replacement is quick and painless. I highly recommend this little beauty to anyone - young, old, or inbetween.

A Quick Look At the Professional Digital Camcorder
Introduction
Professional digital camcorders are better than your analog camcorder, or even your digital video camera. The advancements that have been made in the camcorder industry are amazing. Just like everything else they keep getting more and more advanced, and shrinking in size. Even though we have seen much advancement, the price keeps getting more and more affordable. Professionals are not the only ones who can now enjoy the wonderful benefits of a professional
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A professional digital camcorder allows creativity and quality to meet, and the cost is far lower than it was only a few years ago. Even in the late 1990's most professionals were using Betamax professional quality analog recorders, though the professional digital camcorder was starting to come into its own back then.

Digital cameras are good for the environment
As we consider the digital camera revolution that has taken place over the last decade, most people think about it in terms of enhanced benefits for consumers. We can take a lot more pictures at much lower cost with digital cameras versus film cameras. We can also more easily manipulate and share those photos since they're all in the digital realm.
But one thing many people don't think about actually deserves mention as potentially the most profound effect of the digital camera revolution: how digital cameras greatly reduce the destructive impact on the environment compared to film cameras.
At first, you might think, "How can that be? My film camera didn't harm the environment!" Even though it wasn't your camera that harmed the environment, your film processing did indeed harm it. Any time you take your pictures to a photo processing center, that film is run through batches of chemicals. These chemicals are environmental hazards, and once they are used to process film, those chem ...
