Love my canon!

This camera has been on quite a few adventures with me and has proven itself worthy of every dollar! The rechargeable battery lasts a really long time once fully charged, easy to sync with any computer, really durable, great size, and takes decent pictures. The downside to the rechargeable battery is that if you lose your camera charger it is not cheaply replaced, but it is cheaper then buying new batteries everytime they die! This camera is definitely tough it has seen African safaris and drunken college students. I completely dropped it the first time I used it and it still works! Great size for traveling, fits in the palm of my hand in case you need it handy for spur of the moment shots! One of the downsides with the small size is that it has a small screen so you can not see the full detail of the picture before loading it onto your
One of the nice things about it is that it comes with a great program to create panoramic shots on your computer. It also has a nice strap to keep it around your wrist so you don't drop/have it stolen or misplace it! I love my canon and it has lasted me three years and is still going strong! I would highly recommend this for anyone looking for a compact durable camera with average picture quality.
