People have said the following bad things from various internet websites and vendors about this particular canon powershot sd1100is 8mp digital camera with 3x optical image stabilized zoom (blue): "Lack of control for apeture, shutter speed, and focusing. ISO 400 or higher is when noise becfofmes and issue. Fastest shotting speed is 1/1500 seconds. Auto focus could use a little more work for fast moving situations. Shutter lag can be a little annoying. Battery card memory door could be a little stronger. No raw mode."

Overall rating: 9.9 out of 10 excellent

Personal opinion: Every rating for this camera was positive. Any negative points of view only reduced the raiting on this camera slightly. Whatm ost people didnt mention was how low and cheap the price on this powershot camera was. For all the features and quality and the material what is made , this digital camera hands down, is great if not superior to most line of model cameras. Definately worth it if you need the extra bang over the sd1000 IS.

Update 1: Canon powersho sd1100is shutterlag is tied to the flash. Nobody mentioned a time frame but the Higher the iso setting, the longer in delay for flash. The 3 second mark seems to be the cutoff mark if you want near instantaneous (no lag) shots between flashes.
