a magnificent little/powerful camera
Strengths: Beautiful Design & innovative Canon Tecnology
Weakness: The B&W maual that comes with the camera does not do the camera justice. Maybe something is lost in translation and very poor printing.
Love the "smart auto" feature. Great 5x zoom with optical stablizer. The large 3' LCD screen is easy to view shots.
Glad I lost my last camera off the shores of Jamaica.
