Nice, Perfect!,easy to use camera, September 3, 2009
By K. Jackson , (NY.USA)
I recently decided to upgrade my Powershot A540 to A1100IS. What I got was a nice, easy to use camera with many improvements over its predecessor. I found the image quality is very good. While other tests indicate that performs badly in low light conditions, so far I have not had this problem. All the photos I’ve taken so far have been clear. There are times when the viewfinder may appear grainy video in low light when you try to take a picture, but the pictures are not actually taken grainy at all. She is very friendly, and motion detection, face recognition, image stabilizer and add significant improvements over previous models. E ’small and thin, even if it takes AA batteries. If you are looking for a nice, small, easy to use and the device is very robust, I would highly recommend this one.

The camera itself and the software included with it are incredibly intuitive. Although there are many manual settings possible, I put the camera in automatic mode and just a click away. Many places I took pictures that I needed off the flash, but also those who were very clear and bright, and I had to do was point and shoot.

The delay time between images was negligible, and rechargeable AA batteries that I used was good for about 200 images on charge, even with frequent flash and zoom in and out. I used a 16GB SDHC chip and had the ability to take 5000 photos! I’m still working on completing the first bullet!

The software is also very easy to use … simple as connecting the USB cable and turn off the camera. All images are quickly and automatically stored in folders by date regardless of how many times a day you’ve downloaded, and rename it or marking of images is a snap. I have not even begun to make full use of touch-up photo features, but the software application and includes a fun slide that makes it easy to share images through the projector to a desktop or a rupture.

This camera was everything I was looking for and more! Ideal size for handling, auto-focus and face recognition works very well. Zoom and focus the work in an instant. Canon is my last one lasted 8 years and continues with the 12.1 MP I can not guarantee that it will not be looking for a replacement in the near future.

This a great camera for the price. He does everything we need to do. Appreciate especially children and animals feature that allowed us to take better pictures of our childhood. E ‘can take multiple photos in a short period of time. The picture quality is very good.

Easy to use, easy to get good shots, easy to upload images to your computer. This device does everything and is a great value for the price!
