## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I love the Camera, but it is NOT Silver!
*by A***. on April 16, 2013*

I have had great experiences with Canon Cameras and wanted another to use to take my photos for my bodybuilding.com webpage. I ordered the camera in silver. However, when the camera shipped it was red! While I am not happy that the color substitution was made with NO explanation, I did not have the time to return the camera in order to receive the color I requested. It takes beautiful photos and I constantly get great comments about the quality of my pictures.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Light, fun, plastic
*by P***N on May 11, 2011*

I loved the price on this Canon. I recently sent a digital Elph through the wash and needed a replacement. I was looking for a good price point that would still produce a quality image. This camera is great fun with many features including all of the treatments such as toy, fisheye, miniature... There are enough controls for those with DSLR experience to keep you interested and enough features to make experimenting fun. But it's also terrific if you just want to turn it to auto and snap away. The micro mode works very well. Photos are crisp and clear. Very nice low light photos.As other folks who have purchased the camera have discovered, the cover on the port for downloading pictures is flimsy. I also was a little disappointed in the plastic feel of the camera (My ruined Elph was metal), which detracts from the aesthetics, but the price point and the lightness make up for it. I would have paid a bit more for metal.All around it's a great buy. I wouldn't buy anything but Canon for consistent color, quality, and breadth of fun and useful features.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is now my favorite camera
*by S***S on February 12, 2012*

This camera has so many different functions it makes taking pictures a breeze. I was able to take a clear picture of the moon which was really cool. Also with the software that came with my canon printer I am able to take pictures from a video. Very good purchase.
