"Absolutely LOVE this camera!"
Pros: Ease of use!
Cons: Looked intimidating to 68 year old Mother!
Summary: I got one of these camera's for myself and my mother. I had an old digital camera, and it was time to update. We went up to the mountains and pulled over on the side of the road. There was no way to get out, and take a picture of some RAMS and Elk on the side of the road. NO WORRIES!!! Opened my sun roof, and tilted the screen, holding the camera high up I could see what I was pointing at, and took some framable pictures of the wild life!! I can't be more thrilled with the picture quality, ease of use. Mom was scared to touch it at first. Now she is taking tons of photos!! My brother can't afford to get his kids photos professionally done. However, Grandma's photo's look like they were done in a studio!! I love this camera! I have used the S3 as well.. The best change frankly is being able to move that screen!! So this camera is definately a perfect fit for us!Updated
I liked the flip and twist screen, but it needed to be larger.. Reguardless, I do love the camera. I am sure if I had the S3, i'd love it too. .Then again, any Canon Camera I've ever bought, I've been happy with.
