   Summary: Superb Little Camera for the Rest of Us
Tiny, easy to use and perfect make the Canon S200 2 MP Digital Elph Camera my personal favorite. We have other, more powerful, much more expensive digital cameras, and this is the one I reach for every time. Point, shoot, and upload to your computer. Pictures rival the ones taken by the "big boys," and requires no more dexterity than the average chimp. (or me - take your choice. Chimps probably have more dexterity than I do)

Uploading photos is a breeze. Plug the camera into your computer with the included cable, wait a moment, and your photos are onscreen, waiting for your editing. We use this camera with iPhoto and Photoshop for editing.

The metal clad camera fits perfectly into a purse or a shirt pocket, and is ready to use in a few seconds. I'd replace it in a moment, although I hope I don't have to.

One caveat: the included 8mb compact flash card is so small as to be useless. Buy a good sized card from your favorite supplier and you'll be much happier. I also purchased a spare battery from a third party, just in case.

   Summary: Small but Powerful!
The Canon Elph S200 is my 4th digital camera and I find myself using it more than higher resolution - higher end cameras. It is so small, I can easily carry it with me wherever I go. It's simple enough to use so I can catch my 7 year old in action. And the resolution is good enough to create great pictures! My next camera will be a higher resolution Elph!

   Summary: works BETTER than I expected
I bought this expecting it to be my "starter" digital camera.

as often happens with electronics I buy something and then, through my experience, refine my concept of what I need. Normally I end up purchasing something closer to meeting my needs in a second (or third!) purchase. Or I buy something not quite as expensive as the "top of the line", only later to break down and pay for the improvements/enhancements garnered by laying out the long green.

I may have proven those theories wrong with this purchase. frankly, I can find no major faults with this camera.

I have taking photos since boyhood and have owned quite high-end 35mm cameras from Nikon and Canon. I am demanding in image quality. This camera has fulfilled all my expectations and more from a digital camera. BTW 2 megapixels is more than enough if you use the highest quality setting on the camera and do not plan to enlarge your photos to larger than 8X10"...but who does? the color rendering is also spot on. the metering takes a bit of study (of the manual) and practice to get the right results under tough lighting condition but once you do master that you can get really great results.

the only limitation I find with this camera is the zoom. too little optical zoom range for my tastes and the digital zoom results in reduced image quality. BUT HEY this is for trips, etc. not for professional results, I guess I was spoiled by all my telephoto lenses on my 35mm cameras, I have gladly left all of that bulky equipment in the closet now.

Rugged construction and nice to look at. great photos and low-ish pricing. what's not to love. I think you will not be disappointed by this camera.

   Summary: What can you say about this camera?
This is simply worth the money, its features are awesome, you can't get a camera which is digital 2.x megapixels with video and recording capabilities with sound and preview window, self timer, sound and pictures themes and best of all its features it is compact and fits in your pocket ... this camera should be called Pocket Cameras... instead of digital cameras..

The best option you can try is stich photos i recently went to DC and took the landscaping photos and merged it and my friends say one word "Wow" .... you need not be a expert photographer u just need to have cool tool to do it ....

Don't think twice just buy this when u have good offer and you can't beat Amazon's prices along with 64MB flash card free and shipping free .... Ordered 2 cameras for my cousins....
