What Others Say
Great Camera
I love this camera. These days there seems to be smaller/slimmer cameras available and that is the only reason I did not give it 5 stars.
Large viewing screen, several great options, easy to transfer to my computer and simple rechargable battery.
canon for cameras
takes great pics, compact and nice design. some of the features that you need to use are less than intuitive as indicated by the thick owners manual. simplifying use of the cameras features would great enhance Canon Powershot SD450 5MP Digital Elph Camera with 3x Optical Zoom.
Good product, be careful with the screen
The SD450 is a great value and easy to use. I had to have mine repaired however due to a very sensitive screen which cracked in my wifes purse.
Great camera
I love this camera! It takes great pics. There are only a few things I would improve with this camera. I wish it had a better zoom. I also wish it had a battery indicator that was on or at least optional. This one comes on just before it goes dead. It fits nicely in your pocket. Has lots of cool features. I would highly recommend!
Good
Love this camera!!! It days outside picures amazingly well (with good lighting).. It does give a lot of red-eye though on inside pictures but nothing photshop can't handle.
