 Do not buy a powershot! December 20, 2008
I bought this on amazon just over a year ago.. worked fine till just out of warranty, then all the pictures began to come our overexposed. I sent it into Canon and they want 157 dollars to repair it or replace with a refurbished model. It cost 259 new! I wrote them and told them that I expected a lightly used expensive digital camera to work more than one year, but no dice. I'll never buy another Canon. Beware!
 Great buy! December 17, 2008
I have had this camera for the past 2 years, and love it. I have taken thousands of pictures and have had no problems. I would definitely buy this again!
Use this seller December 16, 2008
I bought this camera awhile ago. The shipping was great and the seller kept in contact with me to let me know where things were. The thing that really impressed me was what happened a year after I bought the camera. I had a defect in the camera. I called Cannon and they said I needed a number that was with the box. I emailed the seller thinking all was going to be lost and within 24 hours they had emailed back with the number I needed to get the camera fixed. I seldom see such a level of customer service in the online world. If you have a choice of sellers to buy from this is the one to pick.
Great until it STOPS WORKING December 2, 2008
I bought it -- I loved it.
I cared for it -- it died the 'BLACK SCREEN OF DEATH'
I had to PAY MORE -- to resurrect it {Canon now says when told that so many others have issues with this camera -- well all the issues aren't the same one -- just like people get sick from the flu or the cold so too people are getting it 'cured' for different reasons -- as IF THAT HELPS! So instead of it having ONE FLAW it has NUMEROUS potential AILMENTS.
I decided -- if CANON can't stand behind their product... I'm NOT standing in front of Canon display cases/products when making a purchase.
After 2 years its dead November 24, 2008
I bought this camera 2 years ago in July, when I first got it, it was great, and I loved it, very easy to use. Well as time past, it was still good.
In October it died on me, you could not take a picture, you were able to review the pictures on the memory card and the menus but that is it. I called Canon and I got told 3 different prices. The final price they wanted was $160, and that was just for the labor of the camera. Who knows what the price of the part would have been. I pretty much babied my camera. It was never dropped, left in my car in the heat or the cold. It was in a padded camera bag. I used the camera about 3 days before it went dead on me. I also noticed that Canon was not helpful at all with trying to help me fix the problem without money. My camera still looks in the condition it was when I bought it. I'm sorry but I don't feel that the price I was paid was worth getting 2 years out of a camera. I'm very disappointed about this because I loved this camera at first now I'm looking for a new camera and I will not go back to Canon.
