Good Points: Excellent pictures
Good resolution
Great movie mode
Bad Points: It is a little complicated to use
Battery hog
General comments: 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 S1 IS digital camera from eBay for $172. Great value! It also has a great zoom.

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 is a much better design. Also, the view display failed. They did repair the camera for the first two problems, and they replaced it for the third issue, where the display failed, and now the flash ...- Read tkman's review (147 words)

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 response make tracking high-speed distant subjects tricky (aircraft, wildlife). Close focus, without having to engage any special mode is amazing, and the image stabiliser is magic. Overall, a very ...- Read tonyfisk's review (128 words)

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 sharp night time photos with a 1/4 second exposure, with no tripod.
This camera has issues, but so does every other camera. I have had trouble focusing at night, but generally after a few seconds t ...- Read paulbobd's review (194 words)

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 understand English. The settings are pretty intuitive. The image stabilizer makes taking long-distance high-zoom shots easy. It also has fun features to help in creating panoramas for example. Best of all ...- Read cyclingrelf's review (190 words)

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 images I got from this camera.
Now before S1 fans start reminding me how good it is. I will admit two things, the S1 is a good camera for many and that mine was possibly malfuntioning because it w ...- Read christophermartin's review (462 words and 2 comments)

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 and because it was 12 months old now it was at a bargain price for what it could do. The handbook that comes with it is very easy to follow and comprehensive and reading it you must if you want to ge ...- Read SteveTC's review (794 words)
