Pros: very long battery life uses 4 AA batteries alkaline or Ni-MH rechargeables. I took over 500 shots with fully charged 2500 mAh Ni-MH batteries. Plenty of settings from full auto to manual
Cons: I have non so far, very happy with the SP 510
Summary: I have read several negative reviews on this camera that are not justified. Reading these reviews I am certain that these people have not read the ADVANCED MANUAL that is included in the CD that came with the camera. I have the adapter lens (CLA-4)a... read more >>

Pros: DV-quality video, Rock-steady Image Stabilization, Battery Life, Ease and Features

"Lots of camera for the price"
Pros: large lens, fast reaction times, raw mode, video, long exposure, time-lapse, digital viewfinder,
Cons: xD cards, no zoom in camcorder mode, no remote shutter release, fixed LCD screen
Summary: I decided I needed a new camera, I didn't want to shell out the $900+ for a new Canon Rebel and I didn't want a pocket camera.
I settled on some criteria, uses AA batteries, 7+MP, 10x optical zoom, shoots RAM images and if it takes video, its in ... read more >>
