People have said the following good things from various internet websites and vendors about this particular Canon Powershot Digital Camera: "Cheap. Inexepsnive. Great beginner learner's digital camera. Easy and simple to use. Small and sleak. Works for a long time if it does work."

People have said the following bad things from various internet websites and vendors about this particular Canon Powershot Digital Cameras: "Several complaints about an "E18" error which might have been corrected with newer revisions of this same elph digital camera. LCD screen is very fragile. Takes a while to power up when it gets older."

Overall rating of this canon camera digital: 5 out of 10 average

Personal opinion of this cheap cameras: While the price is cheap, the quality, sadly seems to be equally cheap. While many glowly reviews gave this camera 5 stars uut of 5, they didn't specificy much as to why. The complaints however, did say exactly why. The biggest problems were an e18 memory error (which can be solved by buying a new SD card for this memery camera?) and the lcd screen being way too fragile. I would recommend an lcd protector screen to keep it form shattering, though age will eventually catch up to this camera. If you buy this, get this for dirt cheap or you'll feel angry at canon, who otherwise in general makes great cameras.
