 great gift idea for a first time digi cam owner January 9, 2009
T. Cleveland (Latham, New York United States)
the item was purchased as a gift for a first time digital camera owner. the instructions are very clear and precise with pictures that help explain each function of the camera. after seeing some of the pictures taken with the camera one can be truly amazed at what such a small thing can do. crisp clear pictures. zoom in and out. edit pictures on computer after downloading from the camera. lots lots more. great for a beginner and can give you pohtographer quality.
Great Camera January 7, 2009

I bought this camera for my girlfriend for Christmas and it was perfect she loved it. It is very small and takes great pictures. It is a great value for a 10MP camera. The batteries seem to last well even when using the flash.
 New and Improved not necessarily better January 7, 2009

The 10.0 megapixel A1000IS is a good camera but nothing that I would consider a massive improvement in everyday 4x6 to 5x7 photo quality over my old Canon Power Shot 2.0 megapixel A40. The video function is improved but that's video -- and it eats memory like a hungry hound. In most pedestrian ways I prefer the A40.
I know both cameras and their functions. I find myself having to manipulate and resize nearly every photo on the A1000 once I download it on the computer - and that's on the lowest quality setting. The red eye is much more prevalent on the A1000 than the A40 and low light is a problem with or without the flash. The A40 was always reliable.
The A40 has 4 shooting modes plus video. The A1000 has eight plus video. In this situation, less is more. The A1000 is a nice camera but it's a simple case of how much do you really need?
Like so many things today, we have too many choices.

The Best Cheap Travel Camera January 6, 2009

6 out of 6 found this review helpful
I have already posted some photos on Flickr and have received some pretty positive reviews.
Why I like the camera for travel because:
1. It uses AA batteries, I use rechargables.
2. The camera has a view finder which is very helpful when you are outside with the sun behind you.
3. Technology is very advanced. Does a great job finding faces and managing focus.
4. Tripod mount.
5. And I think the best price on the market for the technology and megs (10mps).
6. It's easy moving the photos to the computer.
