Good camera for the $$

2007-03-08
The camera is easy to use and takes great pictures in AUTO mode. Mode changing on the fly or in low-light conditions is difficult, however. The buttons on the top of the camera are small and function with a minimal depression, thus you need to be very exacting and know how many increments or pressings are required to get the features you want. In low light conditions, the typical black/grey LED display is VERY hard to read. Also, using the zoom and flash regularly, the battery loses enough charge after about 4-5 rolls of film that you need to wait 3-5 seconds for the flash to re-charge. This can cost you a shot under quick action conditions. Of course, for demanding photographic situations, a point and shoot in this price range will never be enough. The only other minor annoyance is the protruding lens which complicates storage in some bags or briefcases - however, this is only a minor issue. I was on a recent trip and cramped for space when this issue came up. Overall the camera is compact, lightweight, pleasant to shoot and takes good pictures; everything you come to expect from Canon.

Quite technical but good

2005-01-06
I like this camera, the viewfinder doesn't really block the view, just a little bit in the bottom right of the bit you look through, but it doesn't affect the pictures at all.
I've taken good pictures with this camera.
It's got lots of technical settings and buttons...so that's a bit complicated. But when I get the hang of it I'm hoping to be a camera genius.

Do not buy Canon 150u

Viewfinder blocks the view. Faulty design. Do not buy this. Canon must stop making this camera. Recommendation to amazon to not carry it, as you will surely get customer returns

	Sony Cybershot DSCS90 4.1 MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom Review: "This Camera is one of the best in its price range. It takes beautiful clear pictures and can be used right out of the box, but its worth learning all its features. The included memory holds about 20-25 pictures so I upgraded to 128mb. I reccomend getting a 128mb card and the Sony camera case. Not only is this one of the best cameras in its class it includes decent software and rechargeable batteries that are at least a 20$ value. HIGHLY reccomend over canon,kodak, and fuji. One more thing this camera has CARL Zeiss lens (if you dont know, great lens) all the competetors have generic lens."

PC Magazine Guide to Digital Photography

Editorial Reviews from Book News, Inc.
A couple of digital photography experts weigh the advantages and disadvantages of film vs. digital photography, and explain the basics underlying both types of photography. The Grottas provide reality checks on such issues as whether the number of megapixels really matter, and tips on camera selection, use, and e-mailing and organizing photos. The handbook includes color and b&w images, a glossary, and sidebars and Web links for further technical details.Copyright © 2004 Book News, Inc., Portland.

From the Back Cover The megapixel hype
The fact is a camera’s megapixel rating is only a measure of how many pixels (photosensitive sites) an image sensor has…. An image sensor is simply one component of an entire system that produces a digital photograph… So resist buying into the megapixel hype when you’re choosing a digital camera. From Chapter 1
