Good Points

Small and light. Fits in a handbag (it even fits in a baked bean tin if you wanted it to!) and no more arm ache holding it up. SDHC cards are tiny, so no need to carry bulky tapes or dvds. Picture quality really good even on a large TV. We have had it a month and only charged it once so far - and it tells you how much battery time you have left. No motors, so no noise and the battery lasts for ages.

Bad Points

You can't take photos in the middle of a video, but I'm not sure if I'd ever want to.

Good Points

Great camera. Fantastic quality, easy and quick to use. Battery life excellent. Contrary to Canon's technical support team, it IS compatible with Mac OSX if you splash out and spend a tiny amount on a piece of video format translation shareware.

Bad Points

Canon technical support offers poor advice. Not plug and play with a Mac but if you are even slightly technically minded you can overcome the problems.

Overall score: 9.0
