The Bottom Line: Novices will find a challenge, Intermediates will find a good blend with options, and Advanced users should consider the overall package. ALL will enjoy the excellent image quality.

Review: "Read the book!" has never been my favorite thing to hear, but in the case of the Canon PowerShot S1 IS, it's certainly worth consideration if you want to enjoy your camera and get shots worth keeping.

I am a novice to intermediate digital...

The Bottom Line: I recommend that anyone considering Canon products should be aware that Canon will not service their flawed product.

Review: When I bought the PowerShot S5 IS at Christmas time, I really thought I had done my homework. It took great pictures and took pictures with great speed. Additionally, it had great focal range, snapping sharp pictures even at a good distance. My...

The Bottom Line: Great photos, excellent features, ultra-zoom and IS.

Review: I purchased this camera about a week ago. I previously owned the Minolta DiMAGE Z1, but was unhappy with that camera's flaws (such as very bad chromatic aberration, and audio/video out of sync). On paper, the Z1 was great, but my experience was less...

The Bottom Line: A very good camera with a lot of extra components that will not disappoint.

The Bottom Line: The Canon Powershot S5 IS provides most of the flexibility of a dSLR while retaining all of the convenience and ease of use of a P&S digicam.

Review: I got this camera as a birthday present and I have been extremely impressed.

The picture quality is awesome and it responds pretty quickly to taking pictures.

I had an old HP camera which I thought did well but after getting this...

Review: Fantastic zoom lets you compose now optically without cropping later with a loss in clarity.

Has image stabilization which is necessary for close zooms and shaky hands. Good video clips (with a large memory card).

Easy to use on...

Review: I bought this camera a month before, so far its wonderful
picture quality is very clear. the only problem is with the battery life.
the camera comes with good look and finish as i like also it is small to carry easily

Review: You can point and shoot with this camera, or go manual and be creative. Many options to choose from, once you get the hang of the menus and buttons. Manual is very detailed and it doesn't take long to figure things out. Video capture is excellent...
