5 out of 5 stars Outstanding Camera for its Price   July 7, 2008
I just received this camera about a week ago. Took it to Muir Woods and took outstanding pictures. Still learning all of the different manual options this camera offers which are many.

Pros:
Outstanding Pictures
Great Price
Good Zoom

Cons:
Batteries Die fast
Picture taking a bit slow especially when using Flash

One other very small gripe is the ability to "preview" the last picture taken is not possible unless you slide the lever down. Wish it were possible to have a one button click to view the last picture taken. Other than these very small gripes this camera is excellent.

I would highly recommend this camera.



5 out of 5 stars Canon Powershot 720 IS   July 7, 2008
I bought this camera for my family safari trip to Tanzania. I chose it especially because of the 6x zoom. I also like the extra weight and size that some people consider a minus.It feels good in the hand, and can be used with one hand. I was able to photograph wildlife from great distances with the zoom, and then zoom again to see the image up close. This brought hard to see cheetahs and rhinos into better view than the naked eye, and sometimes as well as binoculars. The stabilizer works well too, as I discovered taking pictures even while on bumpy unpaved roads. I made short movies, which could have been even longer, up to the amount of space left on the memory card. The LED was hard to read in the bright light outdoors, so I used the viewfinder instead. (I'm old fashioned). The low price (about $185) made it irresistible. I do only the simplest stuff, so I can't comment on all the features it has. I haven't printed anything yet.


5 out of 5 stars Great indoor and outdoor camera   July 5, 2008
This is our second PowerShot Camera. We enjoy using both of them. This camera takes great pictures. We are not professional photographers but this camera helps make the shots look professional. The price is very reasonable and the shipping speed is very prompt.

5 out of 5 stars The Canon SLR Companion 5 Stars   June 30, 2008
I love how I can point and focus on what I want to take the picture of - The camera knows this and brings this item more the focal point to fade the background not to take away while capturing the vision. The Canon A-720 IS where its at. ;)
