- Great camera, great price.
- This is a great little camera, style and function. I am a loyal Canon user, I find their products of the highest value. My only negative with this camera is that when taking pictures indoors, they come out dark when set on Auto. I am not a camera expert so I am sure there is a more effective way to take indoor photos, but for now, mine just don't come out great. However, even if I knew that beforehand, I would have bought this camera anyway. I am a satisfied customer.

- Nice little camera
- First of all, I like the color (I as a little fearful it would be too pinkish, but it is quite nice). It takes very nice landscape shots, and nice people shots. My one complaint is I can't get it to take good shots in poor lighting, but I am sure if I was more technical, and read the instructions more carefully, I could accomplish that. I am just not very technical,and am a point and click type of girl. This is pretty much a point and click camera besides that. Thumbs up, so far!

- good decision
- Have had this camera for about 2 months now, and am very pleased with it. Simple to use, and takes beautiful, clear pictures. I have used it for vacation shots and scenery shots mostly. Be sure to order another memory card when you purchase the camera. The one that comes with it only held 8 pictures.

- Decent camera, but nothing to get too excited about
- I think this camera would be a great choice for someone who is looking for a cost effective digital P&S and will be only taking photos of posing adults. The features it offered were pretty neat, I really liked the option that focused on one color and made the rest of the photo black and white. Very neat. Now for the bad, my unit was slightly defective (I assume), all of the photos were slightly out of focus, resulting in fuzzy images. But most of the reviews of this camera rave about the picture, quality, so I assume that my camera was defective and an anomaly. The other issue this camera had was the delay between telling the camera to take a picture (i.e. pressing the button) and the camera actually taking the photo (i.e. the image is captured). The camera had about a 1/2 second delay between the two events. This sort of delay is completely acceptable if you are taking photos of adults who know to hold their pose. But if you are taking photos of 2-year olds, forget it. All you get are the backs of little heads. I guess it is possible that the delay in my camera was a result of the auto-focus defect. But then I went to Circuit City to compare my camera to theirs (to make sure it was defective), I noticed that the Sonys were far faster than the Canons. The DSC-W150, DSC-W170, DSC-T70, and the DSC-T77 all were noticeably faster than the Canons. All of these cameras though are more expensive than the Canon SD1100, some much more so, and they also require special Sony proprietary memory, which costs extra as well. But I must say, if you are taking photos of young children, I highly recommend that you try one of the Sonys. They are the by far the fastest cameras out there.

- I think I love my camera...
- My friend has the older model of this camera. I noticed that the pix she sent me were perfect. I ordered this one because of that. I am so glad I did. What an amazing product. I cannot imagine how anyone could possibly give this camera less than 5 stars! The color of it is perfect also!
