Just Right December 26, 2008 I got this camera in 2005 and it is now 2008 and it has been everywhere with me! We've gone skiing, went to Niagara falls (this camera survived maid of the mist boat ride), several zoos, conventions, graduations, microbiology laboratory ect. This thing has stayed working in all sorts of weather after much tumbling around in my handbag. I take it to school and work every day. I've never had any problems with it - ever. The menus and functions are user-friendly. The flash is just right (not harsh) and never makes my face look shiny like so many other cameras do. The zoom is awesome and the self-timer can be custom set in many ways!
Tip: use rechargeable batteries rather than regular. This camera went through my AAs very quickly during long events (half day and full day events called for at least one battery change). Now, with the $20 rechargeable 2500mAh batteries, I only run out of power every few months no matter how many or long my photo-ops last! It's been great!
One question, though. Why is there a video feature if the camera cannot record audio (sound)??? I never use the video feature because of this.
This camera takes great pictures, is durable, and is my best friend. Thank you Canon!
Excellent entry camera September 19, 2008 More than excellent image quality for recreational use. I used it on my trips and gotten very satisfactory results, but blurry and grainy in most night shots, like most cameras. Colors become more vivid than real life. Printouts made w/ ip1500 inkjet is good but slightly grainier than film. Navigation is fast and super easy. Features I find useful: Adjustable gamma, brightness, several fun color tweaks, selectable light tones, macro/super macro, auto/manual flash, rapid shots, 5/10sec timer, panorama, LCD screen on/off, tripod mount, auto standby.
The deal breakers: If priced at $100 and over, I'd spend 50 more for new models like one with higher resolution, lithium battery, and a flatter profile (not for looks, but for the placement of the trigger). Picture can be grainy even in warmly lit living rooms, but that's a problem w/ all camera even w/ some SLRs. Just use flash(but drains power to ~15 shots).
Nice printer, OK Camera, $$$$ for ink April 5, 2008 I've had this printer for about a year. The printer works great, prints well and fast. I can't speak to photo printing (ie, on photopaper) but colors are vivid and vibrant. My negative review comes because of the price of the ink, a full set of new ink cartriges costs more than the printer would cost new without the camera, $67 for ink from staples, $51 for ink from Amazon and $49.95 for the printer new from amazon. At this point, it would be cheaper to buy the new printer, just for the ink.
In addition, each ink cartridge has a special Canon chip in it, so after market ink is essentially out. You can buy cartridges, but you have to go through the process of cutting out the chip from the old cartridge and putting it in the new, kind of a jury-rig process. It's doable, but kind of annoying if you just want to buy and install a new after market cartridge.
I have no idea what would make a good alternative, but just for the ink price, I'd skip this printer.
The Camera is ok, but nothing special. This camera model, like several other Canon models, has a design problem with the zoom lens jamming (search "E18 error" on Google).
In summary, given a chance to redo it, I'd rather buy a different printer and a different camera, so there's very little point in investing in this package.
Canon Powershot A410 3.2MP January 19, 2008 I purchased this for my daughter for Christmas 2006. She has taken very good care of it and never loaned it to anyone. After about 6 months it started acting funny. I told her not to worry as I've been using cameras for over 30 years and have owned many digital's and it was probably just needed fresh batterys. UPDATE- she was right.... camera goes dead after 2 pictures either taken or viewed with new batterys. Camera now lives in the bottom of my safe...waiting for the Camera Gods to fix it. My $250. should have been spent on something else..sorry.
I still miss this little gem. January 10, 2008 This used to be mine a few years ago, but I gave it to my mom for Christmas after upgrading to something else. This is a great little camera. The best digital camera under 4MP if you ask me. It has a glass lens (most of these little cameras have plastic lenses) and it will focus at any length no matter how close or far your subject and no matter how close you hold the camera to the subject. Extremely easy to use. You should be able to find this on the used market in great shape for between $30-$75.
