Canon PowerShot SD940IS 12.1MP Digital Camera (Black)

Swift delivery with superb features. Well pleased and wife loves it especially with a 16 GB SDHC memory card.

I love Canon. I think they make the easiest to use and most durable cameras.
I had a Canon Elph 200 for years. It still works, I just wanted the upgrade.
What an upgrade I got! I love the wide angle lens and huge LCD screen.

there is no picture quality setting, so 12.1 mega px. just a fake, review it carefully before you buy.

I bought this camera to replace my clunky Nikon CoolPix L5 which takes great picttures of plants and apples, but blurs anything that involves anything alive and moving. I used this camera on New Year's eve in an extremely low lit room. The camera is light a night camera, and can see in really low lighing situations. If is February and only now does the battery needs to be recharged. I have taken photos of 3 events in total since New Year's. So the camera has a definite long life, much more than my previous cameras. The thing is small and so you will need to use only one hand as otherwise you will place your fingers over the flash. This is the size of a credit card. I have placed it in really small purses, and I can carry it around in my purse every day because of its small size. It does not have options such as black and white, sepia or other variations. The video is pretty good and I have been able to zoom in while the video is going on. This is very useful. I am not crazy about the wheel zoom and would have preferred a traditional W /T switch. THis is a one hand operation camera as there are literally very few buttons to have to deal with. The wider screen is great as I am getting older. The camera is so simple to use that I do not need to see the markings on the buttons. So far I have used only video and AUTO mode. I bought the camera for indoor family functions which usually have low lighting and so this camera delivers.

I just received my Canon SD940IS several hours ago. I ordered it with 2-Day Service, and it came early on the second day per Amazon's usual excellent service. I have the big Nikon outfit, many lenses/bags/tripods, etc., but wanted something little, but power-packed, to take with us on a few upcoming trips. The Nikon is excellent, but would like to keep the travels simple. The SD940 is an absolute little jewel! It will replace the Canon PowerShot SD400 that I've had for years, but it was time to boost the performance (12 mp vs. 5 mp ... also 28 mm wide angle with the 940). I also love the SMALL size of this marvel. You've been reading it fits in shirt or pants pockets, better believe it! It is great in low light situations (yup, tested it), and the LCD worked perfectly in the bright sun. I took a bunch of test pics, they are perfect. I also love the WIDE format Canon offers in the picture menu selections. An added benefit for me is that is uses the same batteries and case that the SD400 used, so now I have three spares. As someone mentioned in a prior review: the "big" cameras have their role and place, but having a small, highly portable, dynamo in your pocket means you will be ready to take all sorts of shots you very well might have missed. I would absolutely recommend the reader check this camera out!
