Pros Tiny and easy to use
Cons Needs to be upgraded right out of the box
Recommended it? Yes

I enjoy taking pictures of family and friends on special occasions, and of just about everything when I?m traveling. Aside from that, I rarely lug a camera around for no reason at all. I received the Canon Elph Power Shot 100 Digital camera for a birthday gift recently, and I barely put it down... Read full review »

The Canon PowerShot S100 is a Pocket Digital Camera!

129 Helpfuls 130 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Easy to use and produces excellent photos!
Cons The CompactFlash card is too small!
Recommended it? Yes

This is truly a pocket camera about the size of a credit card just thicker in size than a credit card. It measures 3.4 inches wide x 2.2 inches in height x 1.1 inches thick.

This is a 2.11-megapixel (2.11 million-pixel) digital camera that can take photos as large as 1600 x 1200 of... Read full review »

Pros Very fast, ultra compact, 4 megapixels, user friendly, ISO 50, tough Stainless Steel Body
Cons Weak flash, tiny battery, red-eye, chromatic aberration, noisy ISO 400 images
Recommended it? Yes

The SD300 (Digital Ixus 40 in Europe and IXY DIGITAL 50 in Japan) is the second digicam (the SD200 was the first) to feature Canon's new second-generation DIGIC II processor.

A Step In The Right Direction: Canon SD 300

byyakkowarner Nov 28, 2004
57 Helpfuls 58 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Small design, easy to use.
Cons Not manually controllable, not as good as film.
Recommended it? Yes
