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!

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 »

The Sony Cybershot DSC H5 How does it compare with the S3, FZ7, and Z612?

byHoward_Creech Jul 14, 2006
120 Helpfuls 121 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Very good image quality, stabilized 12X zoom, 3.0 inch LCD screen, and good ergonomics
Cons Mediocre battery life, No RAW or TIFF format, and above average chromatic aberration.
Recommended it? Yes

One of the hottest battles in the digital camera wars is currently being waged in the monster zoom digicam market. Most monster zoom digicams provide users with a wide range (10X-12X) image stabilized zoom, much of the flexibility and control of a dSLR, and all the convenience and ease of use of a...

I had used this camera for a week before he came and took it away from me. This camera costs about $500 (but I think my friend paid about $400) and is one... Read full review »
