Pros: rugged shell, great picture quality to size ratio, a camera to carry everywhere.
Cons: it died after 8 months of use.
Summary: the elph takes great photos for it's size. once you get used to it, you can take action shots without a problem (just hold the button in half way to setup the shot and it fires on command). the exterior is bulletproof. the camera does not have any dents ... read more

Pros: Small size, quality of images, and it's COOL!
Cons: Have troubles capturing moving objects. Does not include case and AC adapter.
Summary: First of all, I want to make something clear. I am in no way an expert in photography. I do not even know ANYTHING about photography. I am just someone who is in the market for a point and shoot camera, because I didn't even have a camera at all.

Pros: small, light, easy to use
Cons: wimpy flash; slow, dark lens
Summary: First of all, I like this camera. I really do. I bought it because it meets my needs, and I enjoy what I do with it. But this camera is far, far from ideal or perfect. I recommend it, but with serious caveats.
It so tiny!

Pros: Size, Durability, Photo Quality
Cons: 2x Optical Zoom, Battery Life
Summary: I've owned this camera for 7 months, during this time, its been bumped, banged and even submerged in water and it keeps on going.
I'm not one to write reviews, but after seeing the Canon survive a fall into a lake when my canoe flipped, I had to say ... read more

Pros: * Coolest Digital Camera Around
* Excellent Picture Quality
Cons: N/A
Summary: I acquired a Canon Digital Elph S100 in November 2000 and since then it has been my faithful companion on the road; documenting adventures in all conditions with consistently good performance.
Using a 64mb card instead of the 8mb that came with it ... read more

Pros: SIZE, SIZE, SIZE
Cons: little pieces
Summary: I got this camera for graduation in December of 2000. Since then I've taken about 13,000 pictures (http://staffpages.smu.edu/ben/galleries.asp). That's some pretty heavy use.
It's in my pocket 90% of the time wherever I go. I got some sand in ... read more

Pros: A great selection as a first digital camera
Cons: none
Summary: Although I don't make a living at it, I've been a 35mm photographer for most of my life. The images I capture are very important to me and not being a professional, I don't have the ability to change cameras along with my underwear. When I buy a ... read more

Pros: Small, Price is right
Cons: Included Memory card is small, cheap plastic doors (battery and CF)
Summary: I'm not going to write too much on this but what I have to say is very important.
First of all, this camera is all about portability. It is roughly the size of 1.5 decks of cards stacked on each other. You can't get them any smaller ... read more

Pros: Size, display works well in bright light, and ease of use.

Summary: This is just a basic review to outline the main differences between the new S110 which Canon has recently released onto the market. Here are the main features which set the two apart. I am writing this because I am in photo/electronic sales and ... read more

Pros: Small size, great photos.
Cons: Lag from when you press the button.
Summary: This cameras is all about size. It's so small that I take it everywhere and don't even think about carrying it. It takes great photos, but the biggest advantage is its diminutive size. I used to use the analog APS Elph, and this is a natural progression ... read more

Pros: Tiny, great optics
Cons: Learning curve
Summary: When I first saw the “film” Elph, I clutched my private parts. Tiny, shiny and functional is hard to beat. The digital Elph “pushed me over the edge”. A couple of weeks ago I bought. It’s cool!
Canon lists this device with a price of $599. ... read more

Pros: Small size, easy to fit in pocket or purse. Takes great pictures!
Cons: Battery life not nearly long enough.
Summary: I bought the PowerShot S100 as a Christmas present for myself because I loved its size, stylish looks and features. I also wanted a camera that would take good close-up shots, and the S100 has a macro feature (range of 4 inches to 22 inches). It also has ... read more

Cons: Battery life a little short, size of memory card, Telephoto ability
Summary: Summary – I like the camera a lot. It is very small, takes good quality photos, perfect for vacations and general snapshot work. The downside is that it has a very limited zoom and the memory card that comes with the camera is so small (8 megs) as to ... read more

Pros: Ultimate camera for its size
Cons: standard 8mb memory
Summary: Having just sold my Olympus 340R to a buddy (worked great) and also my classic Linhof 4x5, I read a couple of reviews on the Elph. Plastic card in hand I headed for the nearest store. Five minutes later I am hooked, there is nothing else like this in the ... read more

Pros: Compact, durable, good resolution, able to take low-light and black & white photos, rechargeable battery
Cons: Somewhat slow to turn on, a few interface issues, battery life per charge isn't great.
Summary: It was time to buy a new digital camera.
My previous experience with digital cameras has been a "mixed positive" (I had a Polaroid PDC 640 which, though it took decent pictures, died twice...once while under warranty, and finally just after ... read more

Pros: Small size, stainless steel casing, usb computer connection, looks.
Cons: Camera case not included, ok battery life, heavyish, not good for poor lighting.
Summary: To my knowledge, as of 6/1/01 this model has been updated to the Canon S110. The difference is the ability to directly print to the Canon Card Photo Printer CP-10, 20 fps movie clips WITH audio, a choice of nine image quality modes, different shutter ... read more

Pros: S110 which replaces the S100.
New Feature: Movie Mode with Audio.
Long battery life.
Cons: None
Summary: If you thought Canon couldn't improve on the S100, think again. The new S110 ELPH is improved in terms of image quality and has a new short movie clip mode with audio. I bought one on June 12 and so far recommend it highly.

Pros: solid build, elegant design, sharp pictures, very portable
Cons: no way
Summary: haha, just kidding. But really, this camera is so tiny it will slide into any pocket easily.

Pros: Great convenience and capability in a small, usable package.
Cons: Somewhat limited battery life, but recharges quickly & spares are available.
Summary: This camera solved a lot of problems for me. First of all, while I really enjoy having a photo record of trips and special events, I also like to travel light. I've owned several 35mm SLRs and, while they take great pictures, they just aren't ... read more
