All in all, you cannot get a better camera than this for the price you are paying!! Absolutely superb!
Pros:
- Canon just gets better and better and the ease of use has increased dramatically
- Lightweight, picture quality, and plenty modes and things to do on this camera.
Cons:
- Slow start up
- a little sad when taking indoor shots
- and a bit of softness in the left and right sides of the image in wide angle shots

Nice Camera for Little Dollars
This camera was a replacement for an older, similar canon camera that my wife used for years until a little sand got in it and basically ruined it. This camera takes great pictures, especially for the price. Very happy with it.

Great little camera
As an avid amateur photographer I found this camera to be great value for money. Very easy to use, the various settings have captions and instructions to follow. The camera basically gives you advice while taking your photos.

Great camera. Dependable. Small. Takes great pictures. Easy to use. I would definitely recommend it. It is small, but the red color makes it easy to find.

Canon PowerShot A3100 IS review
With the PowerShot A3100, it's fair to say Canon has the entire spectrum of compact cameras covered. From the excellent - and very cheap - Canon A490 , all the way up to the top-end Canon G11 , anyone in the market for a new compact camera will be able to find something they like.

Canon PowerShot A3100 IS
The Canon PowerShot A3100 IS is a solid compact camera for the money and in our opinion is worth the premium over the A3000 IS. There's not a lot here to get excited about beyond its ability to take an excellent snapshot and optical image stabilisation.
Pros:
- Optical image stabilisation
- Excellent photo quality for its class
Cons:
- Weak feature set
- Cheap feel for its price
