Canon PowerShot S500 GREAT CAMERA
by trelford, Jun 28, 2004
Pros: Compact, easy to use, and loaded with options.
Cons: Needs a cloth case to prevent any scratches while in my pocket.

Review: I was reluctant to spend $650.00 (Canadian) on a digital camera. But after using my brother-in-law's ...

Cons: movie mode framerate, installation issues with canon utilities, some red-eye here and there,pricey
The Bottom Line: Quality, feel, size, reputation ... the key : when you walk out the store you have no regrets, and that is all I wanted. Canon's S500 is simply awesome.

GREAT CAMERA.....but what is that spot on the LCD?
by anishc, Mar 29, 2004
Pros: Small, quick focusing. Ideal for little children. Great for candid moments.
Cons: Watch out for bad LCD. Gets warm rather quickly.
The Bottom Line: Good buy with the extended warranty. Canon generally has good CS unlike Sony. If you take posed snaps buy the DSC-P10. For shooting Kids/Pets get this or the S410.
Review: So after exhaustive research and countless hours of trials at Circuit City, Best-buy and Penn Camera ...
