Cons Horrible battery life, peephole viewfinder (see update)

I got this camera as a present for the end of year holidays (sanitized to be PC) from the wife as she's fed up with our Sony 5 Megapixel camera that has so much boot up time and shutter lag it nearly missed the holidays entirely (press, yawn, ponder, flash, darn missed again).

Cons Poor battery life, blurry, slow shutter.

Pros Easy to use, Very good pictures, and HD video
Cons Slight tendency toward over-exposure, can’t use the zoom in video capture mode.
Recommended it? Yes

Canon introduced several new digicams at the 2011 Consumer Electronics Show, but the compact Canon PowerShot A3300 IS (which replaces the very popular A3100 IS) may be the most interesting of the lot. At first glance, the A3300 IS doesn’t look like the culmination of almost 200 years of... Read full review »

I have a Cannon Digital Camera and I really like it.
