Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Canon PowerShot S410 4MP Digital Elph with 3x Optical Zoom
Customer Review: Always handy for GREAT shots
Summary: 5 Stars
I've owned a number of SLR and point-and-shoot cameras over the years but this little guy gives me sharp, clear photos wherever I am and downloads them via USB in a few seconds so I can edit them or send them to friends via Ofoto. At a dinner for 25 people at home recently, the movie mode allowed me to capture the real feeling of the evening along with the stills - neat! I also bought a 128mb chip and a spare battery to make sure I don't run out of storage or power on sightseeing trips and a leather case to fit on my belt which keeps it with me when I want it. All in all, I'm really happy with this camera.Customer Review: Excellent Camera
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great camera. One of the best buys for your money if you are looking for semi - professional photos. Very Easy to learn. Great battery life.
What I love about this camera the most is that it is ultra compact and yet I dont feel limited in terms of the features. Even has an instant Histogram to let you see if the light / exposure is right.
The manual controls are also good to have in area of halogen lighting and dark conditions. You can set the ISO from 50 to 200. Exposures upto 15 secs.. for starry nights !
Very Impressed ... great buy at $ 250.
Customer Review: Great carry anywhere camera!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is great little camera I can take anywhere and still get great snapshots. Much of the time this great little Canon will suffice, and I don't mind carrying/wearing it on my belt when a heavier camera would have been left at home. Most of the time I do not need the firepower or flexibilty of my G5, Digital Rebel or D10. I have often regretted not having a camera with me when a great shot or memory came up and I left my big and heavier cameras at home. Now I have no excuse. It uses the same CF cards as my other cameras. The camera is built tough and does not show finger prints.
Customer Review: Do not use a generic battery!
Summary: 5 Stars
I want to point out that you should never buy a generic battery, like the person from San Diego who reviewed the S410 on May 15, 2004, was recommending. Yes you'd save money, but there have been many reports of generic batteries exploding when charged for too long. And don't think if your generic battery explodes you can sue somebody and win millions. These batteries are made in sweatshops in China, India and Korea, and I doubt you can find anybody to sue. So play it safe, both for your own sake and the camera's sake. If you want a spare, get a real Canon one.Customer Review: Compact and Dummy-Proof
Summary: 5 Stars
It's a camera for those of us who don't know what a darkroom is...This camera makes taking pictures a snap! It's nice and compact, small enough to fit in my pocket! It's also feature-heavy, although I must admit I don't know how to use most of them. The accompanying software is pretty basic - I'd recommend getting Photoshop - you can pretty much do anything you want to a picture with that program. One recommendation - Get an extra battery! The low battery indicator does not come on until you have just a few snaps left. Pay the money - you won't regret it!
