  Good travel camera
  
  I have several cameras, so I really have not used this very much as yet. The biggest problem I find is that my finger is always on the area where the flash pops up when you turn on the camera. Because of the finger being there, it keeps the flash down which may not be a good thing. I have to try to remember to move my finger before turning it on. Other than that, I am quite pleased with this camera. Love the zoom range, and pixels. I would recommend it for sure !!

  Little Camera Lots of Power
  
  I've been a Canon user for several years, but this little guy pack quite a punch. As always with Canon, the image quality is some of the best, theres some noise at full zoom (mostly into digital zoom) but not nearly as much as some competition. I recently took this camera on vacation to the west coast, we went to some old missions in California, and the low light setting is amazing. Clear and crisp. The in camera editing/art features are fantastic and are fun to play with. The menu was a little different than the ones I've used before, but if you've ever used a Canon you'll get the hang of it. My only complaint is it takes a second to wake up, for example the flash has to charge. I'm not a heavy flash user so it's not a big deal. Battery life is fine, but like I said I don't use the flash very often. Video quality is decent, could be better but that's not what I purchased this camera for. Overall, one of the best.

  Love this camera
  
  I had a Casio Exilim before this which was small, fun and easy. I was looking for something similar when I stumbled upon this based on someone's review. I am not disappointed. It's way better.I took this on vacation to B.C. Canada and the photos are amazing. The other couples I was with had $1000 cameras with 15 megapixels and my images are just as good. The zoom is amazing, I shot a bald eagle way up in a tree and its crystal clear. The video is great too. I bought a 4g card and near the end of my trip it was full so I suggest getting a spare. I guess b/c of the higher resolution. The only drawback was the battery life. It wore out in 2-3 days of use. I knew that going in b/c of the reviews but bought it anyway so my next trip I will bring a spare with me. I got the purple one so it would stand out in my bag and be easy to find. Don't get it if you dont like purple b/c it is PURPLE. I like the fact that the flash pops up but my finger got in the way the first few days until I started to remember to not put my finger in that spot. Overall, the camera is easy to operate, takes great photos and I highly recommend it for point and shoots.

  MUST get a case!
  
  I bought this camera and used it for a family vacation to France. I put a premium on mobility and so tend to carry cameras in a pocket (otherwise empty, not with keys, etc.) This hasn't been a problem with previous powershots, but it is with this camera--within a week, detritus had worked its way into the lens mechanism. I know I'll be blamed for not getting a case - and that's true - but the lens also isn't flush with the surrounding metal, and there's lots of moving parts here. (The camera rattles if you shake it gently.) So get a case, and be aware this item isn't all that robust or spontaneity friendly.
  
  Picture performance is on par with other point and shoots. At this price-point it's worth thinking carefully how important mega-zoom and video are to you. dSLR really is night-and-day better, and though more money obviously, at this price point you probably are considering saving for one, and I'd think hard about that.
  
  Last note: stabilization is pretty good for still pictures, a bit less so on video. I get successful, non-blurry pics at maximum zoom, handheld.

Faulty design and absolute rip off service

I purchased my Canon SD 1200IS in September, 2009 from Amazon for $160. For the five months that it worked, it worked well. I was careful with it, never near sand nor a beach, never in the rain, kept it in a case. But 5 months later it would not power on, or when I would finally get it to turn on, it would extend the lens and then power down, an even more frustrating situation. I sent the camera in to be repaired while it was under warranty. I then received an estimated repair cost of $118, claiming that it was water damage. Again, the camera was never in the rain, never dropped in water. To my knowledge it was never even damp. If ambient humidity may have caused the problem that is certainly a design flaw and this camera should only be sold in the desert. I had read online that Canon repair had done this same sort of rip off with others and somehow thought that as I knew I'd treated the camera well that my case would not be the same. I am greatly disappointed and will never waste my money on a Canon camera again.

I was extremely disappointed with the durability, or lack thereof, of the camera even with proper care. I was even more disappointed with the outrageous repair estimates that was not even explained by the repair service. As I have seen that others have had the same experience and now learn that one of the cameras I'd given as a gift did the same thing, it is interesting that on Canon's own website the reviews are so glowing. This may have been how I was led to believe it was a good camera in the first place. I have recommended Canon cameras to many of my friends and family and have purchased 5 as gifts in addition to other Canon products (copier, printer/fax, etc.). I will now need to start warning people about Canon's cameras.

I got this camera as a gift 3 months ago and have only rceently gotten around to using it . 2 weeks of being used and always keeping it in a case with no damage ,fall or anyhting interesting hapening to it it just plain refuses to work with the msg 'lens error restart camera ' .

I love Canon, they cannot disappoint my family and I. I bought this for my girlfriend and she used to have this Olympus one but I got her into the Canon line of cameras and she noticed the picture quality. Worth the buy, and honestly it has good picture quality. You get what you pay for, and with this you will get what you want....Trust me I was playing with that thing the first second I saw it and took a ton of pictures everywhere we went. Good stuff.

Lens error

I bought the camera exactly 13 month ago. Never had a problem and liked it overall. Easy to use, good picture quality and battery life was very good. Today however without any warning the lens doesn't open up and I get the error "lens error restart camera". 1 month past the warranty. Reading up on it I guess it is a known error that Canon doesn't warrant. I guess I will not buy a Canon anymore.

Shy and modest is so yesterday. Get ready for brilliance that's the center of attention once the PowerShot SD1400 IS Digital ELPH camera is in your hands. First glance says it all: nothing moves you like the impact of sleek sculpture, especially when it's drenched in the purest, ripest colors. Inside, Canon engineers defy micro-space with big, brilliant innovation. How do they do it? Who cares!

Excellent Choice - Excellent Performance

Having stupidly put my previous Casio EXLM 5.1 megapixels (wow!) in my back pocket and then sitting on it and ruining the LCD display, it was time to get a new camera. I had really wanted to keep one feature that I loved - optical, see-through view finder. But I couldn't find a model with all the other features I wanted, so I decided to sacrifice the optical view finder and go with the Canon PowerShot SD1400IS.

Then of course, stupid me drops the new camera five feet to a hard wood floor the first time I held it in my hands. No problem - the little baby wasn't the slightest bit fazed! Not even a scratch.

Pictures taken on auto-mode are excellent! Shots that would have been blurry on the old Casio turn out great. And using the other various manual modes is so easy even my wife can do it! And the HD quality movie mode is awesome to see on an HD TV.

Because our two young granddaughters are into pink - we bought the flaming pink model! We love this camera!

It's OK

I had the SD1100IS that lasted me a few years and recently broke. I got this SD1400IS and don't like it as much as the SD1100IS. It is nice that you can edit the videos straight from the camera, but the zoom button is quite hard to use. This camera just seems a bit more difficult to use and the zoom button is tiny.

Excellent product, loaded with features!!

This is our THIRD Canon Powershot. We had the first generation Powershot and it took a beating. It was dropped, bumped, dented, you name it. Kept on working. It finally broke (the switch between movie/video/playback snapped) when it hit a tile floor from about 4 feet up. I had just purchased our second one for myself and I purchased this one for my wife to replace her broken Powershot.
We have found that these cameras are loaded with features (such as color selecting that allows for a b/w photo with a splash of color from certain objects in the picture), excellent video quality, long battery life and obviously GREAT pictures. It is easy to use, and once you can navigate the menus (takes a few uses to figure this part out) the features are many. The ONE caveat for this camera is to get a memory card that is HD and has a LOT of memory on it. The HD video uses a lot of space (although it has gotten more efficient in the newest models). This is a GREAT camera that we will continue to buy for years.

Worst Camera Ever. False Advertising

I hate it. The flash is slow. The pictures are terrible. My blackberry takes better pictures. My last powershot which my son broke (sd750) was so much better. DON'T PURCHASE THIS CAMERA. You will regret it like I did. Thank goodness Amazon took it back. It's not worth the money.

Want to love this camera

I still want to love this camera. Touch screen is great, video capability is good, size is nice and small. However I tend to agree with some of the other posts that the pictures are somewhat grainy / not sharp (of course especially for indoor shots).
I used to have an old Canon G9 which took great photos, but wanted something more compact and this camera was the perfect size. Will consider the Canon S90 now since although no video capability, everyone seems to rave about it's photo quality. I just want a point and shoot camera that takes incredible photos.

Major disappointment

I've wanted to replace my old Sony Digital camera for a while now, after thorough research and reading tons of both professional and consumer reviews I decided to buy this camera, I wanted a no brainer point and shoot camera for me and my wife to use with our kids.
What a disappointment, photos are mostly out of focus, pale and faded colors, especially indoors and pictures in low light conditions.

The HD video is acceptable, But I wanted a solid pictures and thought that I could not go wrong with the famous Canon Elph series.
To make things worse, I did not start using the camera until after the 30 days return policy have passed, so I am stuck with it unless I can sell it somehow.

I still do not understand the majority of the reviews that are mostly positive and talk about good picture quality.

It is useless for me to talk about the other sophisticated features of this camera as long as the very basic function of taking good pictures is not met.

Lots of features in a small package!

We were replacing a canon camera that had gotten dropped in the tub by our 1 year old. (He is so quick). The touch screen takes a little getting used to, but the pictures and video are the high quality that we have come to expect from canon!

It suits my need for new, interesting gadgets to play with and learn about and my wife's more practical need for a small camera that can be slipped in a pocket, bag or purse and have on hand when needed.

Great little camera

Love this camera and I keep it in my bag at all times. It takes great photos for every day snapshots when a dslr is not convenient to carry. The only complaint I have is the lack of a Sports mode. The Children and Pets mode is the closest I can find and it does an alright job with kids. However, although I've gotten a few good sports shots with it, it's still on the slow side and not fast enough to catch some of the best action shots.

Fuzzy

I had 3mp and 8mp cameras that I feel took better pictures. Most of my problems were with indoor pictures coming out fuzzy and/or pixelated. There is an easy setting and even with using this function I still had poor picture quality. I know this has a 12.1 MP, but to me it is of no use if the pictures come out the way they did. I did read the manual and even with following the suggestions for taking picutres I still had this problem. HOWEVER, As far as taking "posed" shots in very good lighting the pictures came out GREAT, but for taking those pictures of activities, especially indoors (yes I did use flash), I have many poor images of great memories. I am definitely not a "technical" type person, but with owning two other digital cameras I didn't have this type of a problem. It seems like an easy to use camera, So I guess that is why I am so disappointed that I had this problem.
