Canon PowerShot S110 / IXUS v Digital Camera

Pros: Compact, tough, sexy, very good image quality, and movies with sound
Cons: Poor battery life and above average shutter lag

The Canon Powershot S110 is the updated version of Canon’s very popular Powershot S100 Digital Elph. At first glance, the S110 doesn’t look much changed, but beneath the shiny stainless steel shell the little digital elph offers some hot new features...

Pros: Lightweight, compact, easy to use, takes beautiful photos
Cons: Battery life is short and the 8MB CF card is practically useless

This past year has brought tremendous CUTE (Cool Updates in Technological Equipment) changes in my life. Despite my husband's extremely reticent attitude about new technology, we've (I've) managed to acquire a new PDA, MP3 player, CD-RW drive,...

Pros: Size, features, pixels
Cons: Battery life could be longer, delayed shooting.

Warning: This is a long one, go get your self a cup of coffee. Feel free to skip the personal stuff in the first couple of paragraphs.

Blah, Blah, Blah

Not quite 2 years ago an amazing thing began to happen, I started to receive...

Pros: Convenient and portable, looks great, good feature set
Cons: Fingerprint city, no case, measly included CF card capacity

First off... Whoo hoo! My 25th review! I'm a quarter of the way to 100! ;-p

Secondly, why can I not find the S110 as a separate product when I do a search here? The search results will return the S100 instead. I had to actually work my...

Pros: The ultimate shirt-pocket camera! Rugged stainless steel.
Cons: Expensive. Image quality not completely perfect.

I was seduced by the stainless steel body and the sleek design. There's a lot of ugly ducklings in the digital camera field; this one actually looks cool.

It also works cool. No glitches or bugs (like I've experienced all too often with other...

Pros: Size, photo quality, sturdiness, movie feature, adequate resolution, black and white mode.
Cons: Flash, resolution not cutting edge, included memory is insufficient.

I confess, I hate cameras. I hate lugging around the bulky things, plus case, plus film, plus spare lens, plus spare battery, plus lens caps. I hate how the size of them basically ruins my participation in events and relegates me to an observer. I...

Pros: Smallest camera of it's type. Sleek durable design. High reliability
Cons: 2X Zoom could be better, skimpy 8MB included compact flash card

Been using the Canon Digital Elph S110 Powershot after having used the Sony Mavica family of cameras as well as the Kodak DC 280 and 3400. I have to Say that the Canon S100 is by far the best. For all the same features, you get with the other cameras,...

Pros: Small, Durable, Bright Display, Excellent Picture Quality, Easy to use, Overall very cool!
Cons: none

After much research on the topic I have entered the Digital Camera arena with a winner of a model. During the course of my research I was focusing on several key factors. 1) The camera had to be from a reputable manufacturer. 2) The camera had to be...

Pros: Small size, 2.1 megapixel image quality, video mode, CF media, controls, panoramic mode
Cons: Movie length, CF door feels flimsy

I am an impatient photographer. The urgency and instant gratification of digital cameras really appealed to me when they first appeared on the market, however the price and performance did not. In addition to being an impatient photographer, I am not a...

Pros: Size, ergonomics, included software, picture quality
Cons: Manual controls require too many button presses, shutter lag

You won't find disagreement here -- the Canon S110 is a solid digital camera, and its size makes it uniquely portable.

What I'll do is try to focus on the information that other reviewers tend to gloss over:
1. Software support
...

Pros: Size, Weight, Quality, PhotoStich S/W, & Design. Did I mention size?
Cons: Price, Proprietary Battery.

Congratulations Canon for a job well done. This camera is great! I was looking for a digital camera while I was on exchange here in the United States at RPI, Troy, NY. Since I did not have easy access to a laptop and because I was traveling every...

Pros: Small size, great looks, quality pictures, zoom lens, movies, great features!
Cons: Hmmm, any?

Overview

I originally bought this camera as a "portable" addition to my Nikon SLR camera. Instead, I have purchased a complete replacement to the much bigger Nikon SLR. I bought this camera from Amazon.com in 11/2001 for $399 with free...

Pros: Size doesn't matter, so small and light! Easy to use.
Cons: Heard of a 15 minute man ... no you heard of a 15 minute camera.

The Down and the Dirty ... S110 a HIT!

What you are gonna get ...
What you are gonna get in this review is this the down and the dirty. No mumbo jumbo jargon that leaves you just as even more clueless about the funtionality...

Pros: Small, 2.1 MP, Movie-mode, Decent Zoom
Cons: Battery life, Zoom could be better, Switch on Back falls off

UPDATE

After a year or so of use, I found that there is a shoddy design in the camera. The switch on the back of the camera, which changes the LCD screen from taking pictures to viewing the picture taken, fell off the camera, and...

Pros: size, size, size. and great clarity in the pictures. Love the metal case.
Cons: Software supplied does not seem very good

This was my first try at a digital camera (I have used expensive film cameras for years, but felt it was time to go digital.) I love the way it fits into my shirt pocket, so I take every time I go to an event that has a photo op. The LCD screen is very...
