"For the price - it cannot be beat"

I've owned this camera for 6 months and it is one in a long line of Cannon camera's I have owned.
There are no consumer cameras with better lenses and color rendition than Canon. I had some issues with
my Canon $350 SD950 - but it was never picture quality - it was durability. I am pleased to say
that the A1000 gets high marks for both durability and picture quality. It has taken a lot of abuse
including being dropped from three feet on a concrete floor, being sprayed with a hose, and being caught in a dust storm.
I bought it as soon as it came out because it uses AA batteries and I never have to worry about
having batteries. Get decent quality AA's and the camera has battery life comparable to any consumer point-and-shoot. There was no 12MP version available when I bought this but 10MP is adequate for most purposes. (I am a little concerned with the upgraded version - the 12MP A1100 because I recently bought one from Amazon and within a few days the lens refused to open. Of course Amazon stands behind their products and the exchange for a new camera was quick and cost nothing because we were in the 30 day window - which Amazon actually extends to about 37 days because of shipping. Thank you Amazon.)
I read in a few reviews about the door that you open to insert the batteries and the SD card. It did
concern me at first, but it didn't take long to get the hang of it. Be aware that batteries have
to fit snugly for the current to flow properly,especially with AA's, so there has to be some pressure on them and that explains the design of the door.
I have heard that this camera has been very well-received by the public and I cannot believe that the
street price actually went up rather than down, as is common. This camera reminds me of the basic Toyota Camry - sturdy and reliable.

I bought this camera for my daughter's sixteenth birthday. She loves it! The picture and video quality is great. I wanted the camera to be small enough to carry in a purse, but not so small that your hand engulfs the camera when you take a picture. This camera is the perfect size. There are lots of scene options to play with and lots of great features to help you get the best pictures possible. We added a 4 GB memory card and two rechargeable batteries. Now I want to buy this camera for myself!

Overall, I am pleased with this purchase. It is an excellent camera for my wife who wanted something she could easily carry around in a purse or a pocket, and is easy to use. It takes good pictures. However, for a 10MP camera, the pictures are noticeably less sharp then higher priced cameras I've used. I figure it must be the optics.
"Gift for Daughter"

I bought this for my daughter when she was expecting her first child. She wanted a good camera before the baby came. She liked my camera, a Canon PowerShot A750, and wanted one like it. Well the price for the 750 had gone way up. I found this one, on Amazon, and emailed her the link. She said it was just what she wanted. She is very happy with the camera. It is easy to use, has just enough settings that she can "get her feet wet" before she buys a more complicated one. She was looking at an SLR but we felt that it would be too much for a beginner. She has taken some good pictures with the camera so far and has it at the hospital now as I write this. (Baby boy, 7lbs. 12 oz. and she says she has gotten some nice pictures of him.) Sorry this isn't a real technical review but I'm not a real technical person. We both love our Canon cameras and would recommend them to everyone.

The camera is super fantastic. It is easy to operate after spending some time with the manual. It takes awsome pictures. The camera is light weight and convenient to carry in your pocket. A great price.

Still new to me, but a whole lot better, smaller, lighter and cheaper than what I finally left behind.
