great camera for the serious amatuer
This was purchased as a gift for our son. As far as he is concerned it is all the reviewer promised. The pictures he and his wife have taken are vivid and gorgeous. They do lots of bird photography and candid people shots. The rapid shutter speeds on burst allow for some great captures and the lighting and focus are exceptional. .... Read more

A good buy especially with the lens kit
I have had this camera for about 2 months now. I bought it to be able to take lower light level shots with less graininess than my previous Canon G3. I also wanted better optics and resolution.

Brilliant Camera!
I love this camera. I've been dedicated to Canon and they've never let me down. This is no exception.

Excellent camera and lens
I have had this camera and lens for 9 months. Beautiful photos. Love the "live view" for setting up to take photos with a tripod. Large sensor means excellent low-light capability. Fast start-up time. Extremely fast focusing. Love the ability to take 6 photos per second! Manual controls are wonderful and easy to use. Beautiful display. The EFS 17-85 lens is great (remember to multiply by 1.6 for comparable 35mm focal lengths). Am also using a SanDisk Extreme III CF card. This is a fast card. .... Read more
