The single best pocket camera available.
I've used the SD series for some time as my pocket camera and have loved them. This is a whole different animal. It actually takes better pictures than some film SLRs I've used in the past. I couldn't care less about it's video capabilities, so I won't comment on them. The quality of the photo is my prime concern, with size being second. This is an astounding camera with picture quality unmatched by any thing else it's size out there. I even love the brown color, it kind of has a 1950's warm and fuzzy feeling to it (for me, that is).
The image stabilization is top notch and enables me to take pictures at rather slow speeds hand held. In passing I'd like to say that I shoot in P mode and keep my ISO speed set to 125 at all times. I won't use a camera like this to take low light shots. I have a full sized sensor SLR for that.
Macro mode is phenomenal, the pictures it produces look very much like they were taken with a high quality macro lens on an SLR.
My only con is the lack of an optical viewfinder. This might be an impossibility because of the 10x zoom. Obviously there's no way to stick on an add on viewfinder with a zoom camera. I'm getting used to the view screen, it is very nice to use when the ambient light permits it.
In my opinion this camera is a bargain, considering what it's capable of delivering. If you want a pocket camera of the highest quality this is it. Not to insult Canon, but his camera is what I like to call Leica quality. It's made in Japan, where Canon cameras are supposed to be made.
