Canon PowerShot S80

This is the best digital camera I have ever owned (compared to the Minolta Dimage 7i and Nikon 5200 - both 5 mega-pixel cameras).

For a digital camera, the Canon PowerShot S80 has a great battery life, quick shutter speed and auto focus, as well as being a great weight and size for carrying around.

I still haven't read the manual, which to me says that it has great usability. And despite some initial confusion about how to turn the flash on and off, I have found setting changes really quick and easy to master without the manual.

This camera has been used for taking holiday snaps as well as stock photos, and it hasn't disappointed on any occasion.

My only worry is that eventually I'll need to replace it, and I genuinely don't think there will be another camera that I'll be as happy with.

Generally the Canon PowerShot S80 a great camera. I brought it because I wanted more features than a standard point & shoot basic camera.

i.e. exposure time etc.

This camera is great, battery life if far better than my old Sony P9.

Only down side is that it has too many features. I get a little confused at times.

Maybe I need to spend more quality time with the manual.

The Canon PowerShot S80 is a great digital camera. It has super fast start-up and response. There is no great delay between pressing the shutter button to actual picture capture. It also has really good colour rendition. It's a camera I could easily carry around all day and just snap away at an instant. My SLR is definitely redundant now.
