Canon Powershot A3100 IS: Compact and easy to use
I bought this for a family trip where we wanted to take lots of snapshots and also for photographing documents in family history archives. It cost £99 at John Lewis and we spent an extra £7 on a memory card, and a case. Comparing this model with a similar one bought from Kodak left us impressed.

I was very excited to finally get this camera after all the wonderful reviews however, when I got it home it would not take a picture? I played with it for a while and got it to snap once but there was a terrible delay.

The Perfect Camera
I bought this for my 7 year old grandson, who has fairly extensive camera experience for his age. I had given him my old Canon and it died; so I bought him this one. He loves it. Especially the zoom, which he uses to photograph his puppy. He's taken some amazing photos!
Pros:
- Easy To Use
- Fast/accurate auto-focus
- Good Image Quality
- Good Image Stabilization
- Good in Low Light
- Great Zoom
- Large Clear LCD
- Nice Body Color
- Short Lag Time
- Small / Compact
