awsome camera
For the price, you cant beat it!
I shopped the web extensively to find Amazon with best package deal.
The articulating LCD screen is frign sweet. This also turns around and snaps shut protecting screen.Iam not camera savvy but this camera is pretty simple to use.
The zoom and pic quality and video have worked great at the HS football games.
Also uses standard AA recharg batteries that can be found anywhere. Try finding a Casio Exiliam battery in a hurry. GOOD LUCK, I tried.
I have owned many compact cameras in the past because of not wanting to carry around a larger SLR camera. I suffered in picture quality. Do not make the same mistake I did, taking a compact camera on vacation to Italy. Once back home making a memories album,a majority of pics were out of focus.
My wife was ready to strangle me.

muy buena camara
Es una camara excelente, siendo un afinionado a la fotografía, he probado todos sus modos de operación y la encuentro fácil de usar, con una excelentes fotos y unos videos muy buenos.
Solamente me ha costado regular en el modo manual completo (velocidad, apertura e ISO) y las pilas o bateria duran poco pero esto último es por el uso que le he dado (revisar las fotos y videos desde la camara)
El software que trae es muy útil a la hora de bajar videos pesados (sobre 2,5 Gb).
He sacado fotos de noche y son muy buenas, el zoom ayuda mucho al sacar fotos de flores y de personas.
Su visor rotatorio ayuda mucho a tomas desde diferentes posiciones, muy práctico.
En resumen es una excelente camara.

Great Camera, great value
Fantastic camera. I was up and running immediately taking great pictures. This is the ideal choice for someone who wants the ease of a point and shoot camera with the features of an SLR. The Optical Zoom delivers outstanding shots and clarity. The only drawback I have seen with the camera has already been posted by others. I thought that the reviewers were nitpicking about issues with the lens cap falling off, but it is frustrating that the cheapest part of the camera can put your lens at risk. Canon really should make good on this piece, then we will have nothing to complain about!

No manual = no camera.
I purchased this camera last week. I returned it yesterday. The camera only comes with a basic, printed manual. The in-depth manual, the one that any novice user is going to need is included on disk ONLY. This means that you have to lug your computer around if you want to refer to the manual while learning to use the camera. Who's doing that? When I called Canon to inquire as to my missing manual, they told me that I could print the manual from the disk. Yeah, right. On my dime. I already spent hundreds of dollars on their camera and now they want me to spend even more money (and time) to print my own manual? BS!! They said this was part of their "going green" program. Well, guess what? Canon ain't getting any of my green. I returned the camera and bought a Nikon P90 for the exact same price. The Nikon has two manuals the size of the Bible. One in English and one in Spanish. Viva Nikon!
It also appears as though the Nikon has more useful features for me. I own an eBay business and I can actually edit the photos that I take within the camera itself (cropping, borders, light, etc.). This will save me time.
Perhaps the Canon does the same, but I wouldn't know because they were too cheap to print me a manual.
I wish I could comment on the workings of the Canon camera but without a proper manual, I couldn't really learn how to use it. On the day I did attempt to use the camera, I kept having a problem with the macro auto-focus. The images were blurry 50% of the time. When I switched to manual macro-focus, the images were blurry and dark, plus there was a meter of some sort directly in the center of the screen which I couldn't figure out how to remove (or use). It was then that I sought out the manual, only to find it missing. Wading through the online manual was an aggravation that I simply did not want to hassle with, especially when I had work that needed to be done.
What if I hadn't been near my computer when I had some question about the camera's function? Tough luck, I guess.
Bottom line, this is not a camera for a novice and I would not recommend it to anyone. Heck, even if you're not new to digital cameras or photography, you still need to know how to use specific functions on a new camera. It is absurd to think that you must sit in front of your computer and learn, rather than take the camera into the real world and learn as you go.
