Great Camera 
2008-09-30
A nice performing camera with a good zoom range. Could go a little wider, but the long end is great. Image quality is good.
If it were my primary camera, I would miss an optical viewfinder, but I'm mostly using this on a gigapan mount, and it does a nice job for that.
GOOD CAMERA-GOOD PRICE 2008-09-16
Canon does it again with a superb piece of equipment. I purchased this model because of it's use of AA batteries. Some of us photography enthusiasts still like replaceable batteries instead of the internal rechargeable ones. Photo quality is excellent. Its "smart" processor is one of a kind. Pop up flash also gives more direct control over the flash unit. The only drawback for me is the lack of a wider angle lens for close up group shots.
It's great!

I upgraded to this camera from my older Powershot A510 (stolen). It's better in every way. MUCH faster, good battery life, awesome pictures, unbelievable zoom, and image stabilization (I got soooo many fuzzy pictures with the A510 -- not anymore!). It's definitely not compact (fills up my entire jeans pocket), but it takes infinitely better pictures than compact cameras. The software has also gotten much better, and you can finally play videos in ZoomBrowser. It's still not very good at extreme macro shots or low light conditions; but I'm not a pro photographer either, so I rarely mess with the settings. BTW, GREAT bang for the buck.
Hope this helps you gather information!
Excellent Camera 2008-09-07
For my first digital camera I wanted something that I could take pictures with on the fly as well as something with settings that I could play with. I know the basics about changing shutter speeds and other settings of that nature, but this is the first camera with which I've actually been able to manipulate to see what the effects are. Thus far I have been extremely satisfied with the results that I have seen in my images and am blown away with the clarity of a really good shot -which I seem to be able to get many of. As of 250+ shots, I am pleased.
best camera ive ever had. 2008-09-04
first of all this is a great camera. in addition its a sweet camcorder as well. i took so many crisp videos it was ridiculous. the pic quality is great and the zoom is by far the strongest you'll find in a typical camera. definately buy if you want a good camera but are not sure of the technology. It has all the features and the pic quality.

Canon PowerShot SX100IS 8MP is great 2008-09-02
Never having used a digital camera before, I was amazed at how easy it is to use this one. Pictures are very clear, 10x optical zoom is amazing at how you can bring scenes close, and info on screen lets you know when you need the flash before taking the picture. Well worth the money.

Excellent camera for amateur photographer and mommy 2008-08-29
I love this camera. I love the zoom, I love the macro, and I love the ISO feature. The pictures are sharp as can be and the options are endless for my needs. It's easy to use once reading the manual. Cropping is a breeze on zoombrowser which came with it. I have discovered more of a love for photography then ever. I have taken the most beautiful macro pics of my kids that I have ever seen. Nature pics are going to be all over this house in frames!! This is definitely the best camera I have ever used for my family. I have had other canon power shots, but this is the best one. I have rechargeable batteries so that is not a problem. I buy the 2GB cards and they hold tons of pics. If I can find the link on here I will include some macro flower and sea glass shots.
Disappointed by my Canon 
2008-08-27
I bought this product to take on a trip to Europe and I used the automatic feature almost exclusively. I was not pleased with the
quality of a large number of my photos. It was a big let down. I
had bought it to increase the number of megapixels over my old
camera and thought the quality would be even better than my old
camera. It was not even as good. Truman Kimbrough
