I bought this camera for the ‘wireless’ feature. Found out after it ONLY works (theoretically) with XP, 32 bit, SP2 nad if you have anything else forget it. So I tried to install it in my home computer which happens to have exactly the above parameters, nothing doing, not even with the help of my geekiest friend. Excluding the wireless feature the camera is very pedestrian, my Sony is 10x better and I imagine there are dozens of others as well.

For what it does, this is an amazing little shirt-pocket camera. Canon probably still makes the best lenses – even for cheapo cameras. The only Canon I’ve ever been disappointed in is the Rebel XTi, which I tried and sent back last year. Disappointingly cheap plasticy body and images that weren’t even as good as the Powershot G3 (great pix but pain-in-the-rear shutter relay) I had hoped to replace with it. In the “entry-level” dslr category, I’ve been much happier with the Pentax I’m using now…. But I’m off the subject. This little unit did a great job for backup snaps on Safari in Africa – and even held up to a bonking on the metal deck of a ferry boat when I had to jump onto the boat to get across the Nile….

bought this camera week ago at Amazon’s lighting deal add a 2GB memory card. purchased a Canon Selphy 740 Photo Printer (ofcause from Amazon )
WOW, I don’t believed my eyes, Photo comes out great.
I don’t have any trouble taking pictures nor printing it.
I would said both are user friendly.

Its a nice camera with good features. The small zoom (3x) is the only downside. Using wireless downloads of photos is great. So far, battery life seems to be fine, but I think i am going to need a spare battery for when I use it for any trips.

I love this camera, it’s an older model (only 5MP) but picture quality is great. Love tha fact that you can connect to your network with Wifi to print your pictures with no cables but the main feature why I bought this camera is the ability to control the camera and take pictures using the PC (great for taking remote pictures) and this feature I havent seen in any other camera maybe the general public did not use??? well anyway I love the camera and I’ll upgrade to a newer model if they ever bring back this feature….
