    I have had excellent results from this digital camera! Movies are excellent! I just burned a movie to a DVD and played it on the TV. It looks like it's been shot on a professional handycam. On a computer it just looks like any normal one, but on the TV it was just awesome. I got my Canon PowerShot S ...

    My Canon PowerShot S1 IS digital camera has needed to be repaired 4 times. Three times in the first year, and once again in the second year. The pop up flash is a bad design. The mechanism that allows the flash to pop up fails. I will not buy a camera with a pop up flash again. A built-in flash ...

    The Canon PowerShot S1 IS digital camera has a nice feel to it, and it can give very crisp shots, although colour rendition seems to be a mite variable. Exposure on flash shots is good, but low-light focusing can be dodgy due to lack of a focus-assist lamp. Viewfinder characteristics and slow focus ...

    I have had my Canon Powershot S1 IS digital camera for almost a year now, and it is fantastic. Images are sharp, well balanced, and the manual settings allow you to be creative.

    The image stabilizer works great, and is one of the features that stands out against comparable cameras. I've taken s ...

    Steve's review really said it all for me. The Canon PowerShot S1 IS digital camera takes great photos, with varying degrees of automation, depending on user preference. I'm fairly new to using cameras and found this one really easy to pick up. The manual is well-designed and written in easy to under ...

    My opinion & experience with the Canon S1 iS
    The first 6 hours were great the last 6 hours today was a nightmare. And I seriously mean a nightmare. The images I got today were so bad that I would be ashamed to show my great, great, great grandfather (one of the first Photographers in Illinois) the ...

    Having not long bought the Canon PowerShot S1 IS I was looking forward to putting it through it's paces (I already own an Ixus V3 which has similar menu's) so I was able to get started right away. I had made my decision after much research on the internet and found this to have everything I needed ...
