I have found this camera is very simple to use with a clear manual. Pictures which I mainly shoot at 'fine' quality with auto focusing are technically excellent. However, I find manual focusing difficult on this camera as the viewfinder only provides digital image and the digital manual focus seems quite imprecise. I have found the processing time on this camera to be so much faster than other cameras I have used although when using flash the delay necessary between shots and between shutter release and flash fire can be a disadvantage.
I have been particularly delighted with results when using the macro facility to shoot flowers and insects. This camera is a good first step up from a compact digital

Hi and welcome to Ciao. I feel there's enough here to rate Helpful, but I do understand why some people are rating lower and would concur in Elle's advice below. Duncan

Hi there, as no one that’s rated your review have left any constructive comments I thought Id help out: Your review, while good, needs a little more information in it to get better ratings, more community points and ultimately more pennies! Take a look at my Canon Ixus 750 review for some pointers on what to include and layout. May people, including myself, are fussy about spelling and grammar and these mistakes can be avoided by typing the review in Word first then copying and pasting the review into the Ciao browser. Hope this helps! If you need anything else drop me a line in my guestbook! Elle xx
