Customer Feedback :
The picture quality of the camera is pretty good. I am happy with the video quality so long it’s not at the beach. I wanted an inexpensive point and shoot. Just remember this is the absolute bottom line of Canon’s point and shoots. Lots of nice program settings such as super macro, portraits, beach and my favorite: long shutter(up to 15 seconds).
