I bought the Canon SD1200 digital camera for my girlfriend. I own a Nikon D60Nikon D60 10.2MP Digital SLR Camera with 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G AF-S DX VR Nikkor Zoom Lens, and I was planning on buying her a Nikon
P&S camera..to replace the 4MP Nikon she already has. After checking reviews of Nikon P&S cameras, I didn't find any I liked.
Then I researched Canon's line of digital cameras and found the SD1200, I read the reviews and that helped me decide. I took
my girlfriend to Best Buy so she could see the camera, and she immediately liked it. She wanted a small P&S camera which she
could carry in her purse. And she wanted a rechargeable battery, and the eye viewfinder as well. And she wanted at least 10MP.
After further consideration we agreed that the SD1200 fit the bill. I ordered it on thanksgiving day from Amazon (great price $149). And received it 3 days later.
.... when I received the camera I charged the battery and we went and took some photos both indoors and outdoors the camera takes excellent photos that are super sharp...thank you Amazon you guys are the best with the best prices and great customer service....WillieCanon PowerShot SD1200IS 10 MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom and 2.5-inch LCD (Silver)

I Love this little digital camera. A friend of mine had one and she was just taking such great pictures and the camera just seemed to have such ease to use and convenient features for being compact. I'm still learning the different things on it but I'm going to enjoy it for a long time. I also got such a great deal on it...of course thanks to Amazon!!!

Second Canon I own.
First one also was digital Elf that was broken. (no fault of camera)
Got upgrade. Works well for something you can carry on a mountain bike or skiing slope.

this is the worst camera i ever bought,one buys camera for picture quality, and it lacks the same, my earlier 3.1pixel nikon camera is better than this.all the images are blurred for no reason.

so far this little camera has been easy to use & produced some fine pictures - I am not that skilled, but for my purpose, it fills the bill & the price seems fair
