I have waited nearly 8 months to write a review on this camera because I wanted to make sure that I have taken a sufficient number of photos to give what I think is a fair review.I hate reviews written on a product that bash the person that sold the item because of problems and never mention the item. I have now gone on 2 vacations and have taken about 3300 photos so now is the time.I already have a Cannon Power Shot SD1100IS camera that I like very much that I bought in 2009, and have taken almost 10000 photos with but I wanted a camera with a better zoom for about $200.I like the Cannon software for editing pictures so that is why I stayed with the Cannon.Most of the reviews that I read on this camera seemed to mention the same dislikes so to eliminate the main one I bought an extra 2 batteries on line for less than $10 which takes care of that complaint.While I'm on vacation I always have my camera in my shirt pocket so that no opportunity for a photo is ever missed,it is nothing for me to take a several hundred photos in a day, and yes I had to change the battery out at times,but having them handy makes for no problems.Another complait was the lens shield,people complaind that it was easily moved, and yes this a fact, it moves much easier than my older Canon,but I have noticed on many brand cameras that have a zoom lens that extends 2 stages this is true.Like I said I carry mine in my shirt pocket with no case and its not been a problem yet.I so far have used this camera only in the Auto mode, letting it decide what settings should be used and so far the results are great,the only features I use regularly is the playback and to erase unwanted photos.The HD screen display puts my friends older sony screen to shame.The only real complaint I have is that I think the plastic door that you open to download picture to your computer is too large and much to flimsy, and that even though I know we are supposed to conserve paper there is no hard copy of the manual to carry with me to look up any questions that I have at night.I do not use the movie feature or edit any picture on the camera as I like to see photos larger when I edit,so I won't comment on that.All in all a great little camera that's worth the money.PS I still carry my older camera with me also,and use occasionally.Read full review
