The perfecct camera with the perfect imagess
This camera is seriously so light and slim and thin. Very stylish and at the same time it gives stylish photos too! With the Auto scene function, I get the best images, the camera does everything for me I just got to hit the shutter button.

You can't beat this quality of this solid little Canon for the money!
My philosophy is: "if it fits in your pocket it good". I took this camera to Paris and the beaches of Utah and Omaha. It took pictures that would rival any high dollar SLR camera. Tha big plus was the video's that it produced.
