Own a Canon EOS Rebel, but find it too much to carry around all the time. This Powershot is perfect for pocket carrying

Great Camera

I am Canon lover since I knew what cameras are.
This one is again, the best for the purpose of handyness.
Picture Quality is awesome & you can print as much as large as you can and get the same feel as seeing on a Computer.

Awesome pocket cam

This is a great pocket cam. Pic/video quality SUCKS of course, compared to a dSLR (which I'm used to), but this little cam allows me to take it anywhere anytime. This advantage compensates for the comparatively crappy IQ (once again, think of dSLR difference). For its category, works great. 2 years of constant use, and still works like a champ.

Outside Nice

VEry nice pictures outside..inside with flash is decent as well. My camera makes noise...when it's on..even the day i took it out of its package!!! idk if it's faulty or not..but it works so i'm okay for now. Battery life is pretty decent...i had mines on for like 4 hours..taking non stop pictures while i was traveling. would be nicer if it's slimmer and shorter..but whatever.

IS works very well, but videos only in QuickTime format

I've had the camera for 3 months now. The IS works very well, both for pictures and video. My only disappointment is the video format: they are saved only in .mov (QuickTime). Compared to the more common .avi or .mp4, the .mov files are large and will not play on a Windows computer unless QuickTime is installed.

Great Little-Big Camera

The only thing little about this camera is its outside dimensions. It takes high resolution photos and videos, it is packed with features. Has a huge viewing screen. It's so simple to use, all three of my children (7yrs to 12 yrs) and wife immediately took to it.

Canon PowerShot SD940 IS

I did a lot of research and purchased, and returned, two other camera before I found the SD940 IS to be the one. I am extremely nearsighted and the 2.7" screen was better than the 3" widescreen on the SD980 IS. This camera is perfect in every way. It embodies just the right stuff!! Other camera, more expensive and some not, had too much unnecessary features. I wanted a camer that had some weight to it, took great pictures, great video and was compact. This camera fit the bill and was perfect for me. I recommend this camera to those who want a great digital camera with simplicity, yet a lot of camera.

With the SD940IS, Canon has lost it's way

I bought this to replace a 3 year old SD1000 with the hopes that another generation of DIGIC processors would improve upon the excellent SD1000. Boy was I wrong. I should have listened to others who have said that Canon has lost it's way. This camera is very difficult to work with to get a good exposure - like a difficult to use SLR, you need to be aware of the lighting conditions and the limitations and quirks of the camera to take a good picture, you can't just point and shoot and feel confident that you've captured the moment. I found myself shooting a large number of photos and fiddling between the fully auto and the manual mode to understand when to use each. The fully auto mode is able to take some very interesting pictures that I was unable to reproduce in manual mode, for example taking a picture from inside a room of the view outside a window - in auto mode it is actually able to expose both the indoor and outdoor elements. However when outdoors the auto mode consistently produces overexposed and washed out photos. Perhaps the most telling sign is that I actually lost the camera during a trip overseas and did not mourn the loss at all - in fact a felt a sense of relief that I wouldn't have to live with it.

Other annoyances, the black paint chips fairly easily, the power button is hard to find, and it is nearly impossible to hold this camera without partially blocking the flash, which results in large dark areas in indoor photos.

Like a rookie QB with a great arm, this camera had flashes of greatness, but also demonstrated spectacular failures in simple situations and overall was a lot of work to live with. After 8 years of faithfully using Canon Elph digital cameras I'll be looking to other manufacturers now - it was nice knowing you Canon. Buyers be warned - STAY AWAY!

Great camera, with limitations

I bought this camera for a family member, but I borrowed it for about 500 pictures on a recent trip to Nicaragua. I have an older Canon SD870 which I dearly love, but I thought I would like the smaller size of SD940 and it has HD video. The picture quality is up to normal Canon standards... no complaints there. Time-to-start-up, battery life are all excellent. But I have two complaints: (1) Even though I think I have normal size hands, the buttons (particularly the power and shutter release on the top) are just too far recessed to be accessed easily, and without looking. On the flip side, my Canon SD870 is just the opposite - it's too easy to accidentally power on the camera. And (2) Canon replaced one of the dedicated thumb wheel selectors... the shooting mode. I like to easily be able to select Continuous Mode. When you need it, you need it right away, and you don't have time to plow thru menus. For that reason alone this camera will not be replacing my SD870. If that's not important to you then you'll love this camera.

pay attention to return policy

when i received this camera it worked fine and i was happy with it. i noticed that the lens had spots in it and i had to send it to canon ($15 shipping and ins.) and they had it repaired and returned in about 2 weeks. if i had bought it directly from amazon,and not a company who uses amazon, i could have just sent it back and received another one with no shipping fees and less turn around time. i like the camera but will deal only with amazon next time

Taking your digital photography beyond the "norm", the Canon PowerShot A495 SL offers Super Vivid and Poster Effect modes, allowing you to capture images with exceptionally vivid colors, or a high-contrast, graphic look. And that's in addition to 16 other automatic shooting modes. Capture all your shots with stunning detail and brilliant color thanks to a 10.0-megapixel capture resolution and the DIGIC III image processor. Finally, because the A495 is fueled by a pair of AA batteries, you never have to stop to recharge.

Customer Review :

Would have loved it, but battery life is AWFUL.

Sorry to say, this is my 1st negative review of a product on Amazon and I hate to do it, however I would not be able to recommend this camera model to anyone! (I have had Canon Powershots in the past that I loved, too.)

I bought this camera and immediately fell in love. It was easy to use, took great macro and regular shots, and was just an overall wonderful camera! That was until the batteries started going out after about taking 50 shots with it. No flash was being used at all, it was only in macro mode. And this happened repeatedly no matter what batteries I used. I have at least 4 different sets of rechargeable AA's that I have used successfully with my other camera. They would last forever in that one, but not in this camera! You get about 50 shots and that's it. Basically this makes this camera completely USELESS for me. I have an online business that requires me to take many shots to weed out the best ones to use - and needless to say after going through 4 different sets of batteries within 15 minutes time after time has made me furious. I am going to return this camera today, garbage!!

We purchased this camera for our granddaugter to take on her trip to Colorado. Canon cameras take very good pictures. This camera is small and compact and very easy to use. You can navigate through the menu easily.

Rating :

Save up and buy something slightly more expensive

The overall quality of this camera is good, however, I have had nothing but frustration since I began using this. First of all, with nearly every picture that you take using the flash, following the actual picture taking, the LCD display goes black for several seconds and gives you a message that it is charging the flash.

Second, the camera will take its time focusing in and finding the right levels of focus and clarity for the picture that you are trying to take. When it does allow you to take your photo, a review of the photo on both the LCD and later on a PC will often reveal that the picture you just took is blurry and out of focus.

In conclusion, this camera is too much high maintenance for a simple point-and-shoot camera. I have two small kids, and when I want to catch them at a particular moment to take a picture, every second is essential. Between waiting for the flash to charge and then the camera to focus, and then followed by pictures that come out with little quality, the money spent on this camera is not an investment in memories as it should be, but rather an investment in frustration.

Questions & Answers

Question : accesories for canon digital camera which makes me look like a pro?
haha! so i bought a new canon digital camera a Powershot a2000 IS. are there accessories that can make my photographs look pro and beautiful?and how do i attach them? pictures would be much appreciated thanks!

Answer:
Actually, your own photography skills will make your pictures look "pro and beautiful". So just focus on improving your photography skills. Even with a point-and-shoot camera, a person can take some very good pictures. Play around with the manual settings on your camera until you discover what works best for taking pictures under certain conditions. And read about things pertaining to photography, such as aperture, shutter speed, ISO speed, etc.

Question : What canon digital camera body do you recommend to fit my sigma zoom lenses?
I have a Canon EOS Rebel G that came with a 28-80 mini zoom macro and a 70-300 macro super.....I want to get a digital that i can still use my lenses on.Any recommendations? Would it be cheaper to get just the body? Im looking in the $500 range.I am not a pro, but hope to get a good camera to learn that will last.

Answer:
Sure, you can buy something like the entry level Canon Rebel XSi or XS and will save buy buying only the body. If you want a wide angle lens, you will find the "kit" lens (18-55 mm IS) will give you a decent wide angle view.

Question : What kind of batteries should be used with Canon Digital camera A 570? Any specific brand?
I have recently purchased Canon A 570 Digital camera. The batteries have gone dead I have replaced the old Panasonic batteries with brand new Duracell battery however the moment I inserted the batteries I get battery low display. Are there any specific brands that we have to purchase and any specific model? Can we use rechargeable batteries?Which recharger should I use? Any specific brand? Please let me know the exact name of the model/brand of batteries.

Answer:
Yes, of course you can use rechargeable batteries. In fact, that's what you SHOULD use. Any good name brand of rechargeable NiMh battery and charger will do. Make sure they are high capacity (something like Energizer 2700mAh or higher).Your camera only uses 2 AA batteries, so make sure you buy 4 batteries and a charger that can charge 4 batteries at a time, so you always have a spare set.To lengthen your battery life, make sure you turn off the LCD in between shots, and also limit the use of the flash, zoom and recording of movies.Make sure you always give the batteries a charge before you plan to use the camera. Especially if you have not used it in a while, because NiMh batteries will discharge at the rate of about 1/2 -1% per day when not used.You can also use Lithium batteries (such as Energizer e2). They are non rechargeable and fairly expensive, but provide a much longer battery life than ordinary batteries. They are perfect as an emergency backup...and the good thing about them is that they do not discharge when not used.good luck...

Question : Canon digital camera and other non canon lens?
I have a Canon Digital Rebel XT and I was wondering what other kinds of non canon brand lenses can I use with my camera? Currently I use a Canon 50mm 1.8 and the 18-55mm kit lens.

Answer:
Some lenses to consider are those from Sigma, Tamron, and Tokina. On average, each lens does not do as well as their Canon or Nikon counterparts, but still get the job done. If you want quality, get Canon lenses. If you want a cheap alternative, go to the third party brands.As for specifics, I use a Tamron 70-300mm f4-5.6 at the moment, but am going to upgrade to a 70-200mm VR once I save up enough money. The Tamron is good for the money, but slow to focus. I hear this also plagues the type with the built in motor.The type of lens you want depends on the type of shooting you're going to do. If you shoot landscapes, look into a wide angle lens, such as the Sigma 10-20mm or Tamron 17-50mm. For telephoto zoom, the 70-200mm f2.8 Tamron would be a good option. I don't care too much for the Sigma, because there are issues with the outer coating. For portrait work, I've heard good things about the Tamron 90mm macro, or the Sigma 70mm macro. I have not used Tonkina, but some people say they are good, while others do not. I guess the same goes for Sigma, but not so much with Tamron.

Question : I am buying a Canon digital camera, which is the best model in the SD line?

I can't seem to find many differences between the 3 and was wondering if anyone had any experience between any of these? Thanks
