 Great camera January 9, 2010
J. L. Brundage (Arizona)
This camera is wonderful. I haven't mastered all the functions yet, but it is user friendly enough that until I have time to do more experimenting, I can get some great pictures.
 Great Image quality, but SLOW shutter October 10, 2009
Mr. Pounds (Idaho)
I bought this camera shortly before the birth of my first child. Frankly, the camera has been wonderful in every way except for one -- the shutter speed. It doesn't matter if the flash is off, where the settings are, etc. --- From the moment you hit the button to take the picture, it takes nearly a second to capture the photo. I have SO MANY photos of my son with his eyes closed, or blurred images from making a sudden movement, etc. Trying to take a picture while he is moving is impossible -- especially in the higher megapixel range. If you're trying to capture that "perfect moment" I would recommend something a little better.
Our Friends went out and bought a Canon Rebel xsi when we bought our SD950, which is, granted a DSLR camera. They have remarkable pictures! We would be in the same room, shooting the exact same material of our kids going down an inflatable slide, or playing in a ball-pit and *they* have wonderful pictures, and we have very poor pictures.
So, I'm going to hang on to this camera for group photos, scenery photos, and will not hesitate to take it on vacation with me due to it's portability -- but I will be buying a Canon Rebel xsi for those moments when the SD950 will not do.
Seems pretty sturdy October 3, 2009

Obviously there are already a slew of reviews for this but I wanted to add my two cents. I upgraded from a Canon Powershot S30 (awesome camera) to this about two years ago and have liked it quite a bit. It is a very comfortable camera to hold and the buttons are easy to find and reach, not in the way. It takes very clear pictures, although if you are using it for any nighttime shooting I would recommend using a tripod because it has a tendancy to want to blur more at night. I do wish that the macro setting was capable of a little more, but it still works well. Also the battery lasts for a long time between charges, though my view on this may be slightly skewed as the battery in my old camera wouldn't even last a day.
The titanium casing on this camera is one of my favorite features because I tend to be very rough on my things. My camera has been dropped or squished a few times with no real ill effects. I've had it drop into a creek before while hiking around and after sticking it in my oven at 100 degrees F for an hour and then letting it air out for a couple of days it seems to work fine. I was sure that it was fried but the internal clock and buttons and all still work, so I am very happy with the camera.
