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 Compact, solid, easy to use, great pictures.
Cons Proprietary battery, flimsy battery/memory card door.
Recommended it? Yes

When looking for a new camera, we wanted something small, easy to use, and that took good pictures. The Nikon Coolpix S500 was a great choice.

We wanted something small so that it would be easy to carry. Although we usually carry it in a dedicated camera case, the S500 is tiny enough to... Read full review »

Poor low-light performance

bygajozinho Apr 20, 2008

Pros Looks
Cons Poor low light and high ISO performance - extreme noise
Recommended it? No

There is more to hate about this camera than to like about it, especially given the price tag. In short, unless your lighting conditions are superb, you will be disappointed every single time.

I bought this camera in a rush. I thought, oh, it's a Nikon, how bad can it be? I was sorely... Read full review »
