Canon Powershot [Posted on 2008-07-10] Takes very clear photos. The directions are somewhat confusing for a novice photographer- choosing and switching to the various scenes is difficult. The automatic setting works well, though!
FINALLY! [Posted on 2008-07-11] i have always been a canon user until i got these rave reviews about the samsung NV10 so i bought it. i did not like that i could not just point and shoot a good pic. i had always had to play with it for a while (i know this is not a review for NV10) but with that being said once i decided to back to canon and see what the SD1100 was about...i had NO regrets! this camera takes AMAZING pics! with very little navigation too! the macro option is really cool too!
it did have an screen error message after a week and half of using it but that is the AMAZING thing about AMAZON, returned it and they sent me a new one...just like that!
if i could give more stars i would! i am inspired to take pictures again!!
The lens error problem is for real.... [Posted on 2008-07-12] I got this camera for my daughter (in pink of course) in mid-April. She loves it (size, pictures, etc.) but after less than three months it will only flash "lense error, restart" when it's turned on. Too late to return to Amazon. :( On the bright side, a trip to Canon's website support section got me through to a Repair Request Confirmation. Hopefully, this will just cost me postage to Elk Grove Village, IL.
Suspiciously, Canon doesn't list this model on their repair request input screen... makes you wonder if they're trying to discourage the onslaught of these that they're getting back for repair.
Here's hoping Canon will stand behind this little jewel. If I had it to do over I'd think twice....
Lens Error within 3 Weeks [Posted on 2008-07-13] This was a great camera--until it stopped working completely within 3 weeks. There was no 'incident' or warning... but half an hour after making some movies, I went to turn the camera on and I got the message "Lens Error, Restart Camera." I've tried everything, and I can't even retrieve the photos onto my computer.
So even though I expect Canon to replace this camera, since I bought it for a trip and can't take any photos, I am really bummed that it stopped working. I think they must have been using a cheaper manufacturing process, and we are all paying for it. I've used Canon products for years, and I support the company... but I strongly recommend getting a more reliable camera than this one.
Absolutely love this camera! [Posted on 2008-07-14] I moved from an older Kodak Easyshare camera to this awesome camera. It takes amazing pictures no matter what, and has a setting for almost everything (you just have to take the time to figure out how to use all of the different settings). It is a perfect size to carry with my in my pocket and seriously always takes good pictures- even if it is an action shot. Sometimes it does seem like there is a little bit of a delay when taking a picture, but that really doesn't bother me at all because its worth it for the great pictures. The only slight problem I have had is getting my pictures to my photo editing application on my computer (I have a Macbook so I'm sure it would be fine on Windows), but I eventually figured it out- it's just kind of annoying. But besides that, this is by far one of the best cameras on the market for a GREAT price- I am thrilled to have it and definitely could not go back to any other type of camera. Canon is the best!
