Canon PowerShot A1100 IS Digital Camera

Pros: zoom is great
video is great
capure high speed moments
Cons: 15 times zoom is a litte blurred..dissappears when picture is taken

The Cannon PowerShot A1100 is great! I Love it! I use this camera mostly on the lake for the fast motion powersport my family and myself are involved in. Any thing from the 12 MPH wakeboarding to the 28 MPH of skiing and tubing..the camera stops it dead in the tracks. Video on this camera is great as well. with a great not blurred picture. I bought the camera mainly for this. We just leave it at the lake house so no one has to remember theirs. the zoom is awesome!! i would definately refer anyone to this camera.

Pros: 16:9 shooting - excellent macro shooting - color fidelity - decent video capture
Cons: Color and luminance noise is high - slow flash firing reflex

Without this camera, shooting photos of children playing would be near impossible.Try using a Nikon D50 on an inflatable gym toy with 20 children and see how many shots one would get out of it. The A1100 did a very good job under difficult cicumstances, and paid for itself in one day.
