Pros Tiny and easy to use
Cons Needs to be upgraded right out of the box
Recommended it? Yes

I enjoy taking pictures of family and friends on special occasions, and of just about everything when I?m traveling. Aside from that, I rarely lug a camera around for no reason at all. I received the Canon Elph Power Shot 100 Digital camera for a birthday gift recently, and I barely put it down... Read full review »

Pros Easy to use and produces excellent photos!
Cons The CompactFlash card is too small!
Recommended it? Yes

This is truly a pocket camera about the size of a credit card just thicker in size than a credit card. It measures 3.4 inches wide x 2.2 inches in height x 1.1 inches thick.

This is a 2.11-megapixel (2.11 million-pixel) digital camera that can take photos as large as 1600 x 1200 of... Read full review »

Pros Body-integral anti-shake, superior Pentax optics & build quality
Cons No anti-dust feature for the sensor
Recommended it? Yes

I bought my Pentax K100D when I was ready to move up from my Olympus superzoom "prosumer" point & shoot camera.

I bought it to get into digital SLRs. I already have an outstanding Olympus OM system for film, and a nice little Canon Elph for a pocket size digital. I wanted top-quality optics,... Read full review »

Cons Sometimes images come out underexposed<br>Annoying gel stripe on the left

I've had this camera for about two years and I am very pleased with it. I only paid around $280 for the whole kit, which was a great value. The choice was between a Canon S3 and the Pentax, and I went for this K100D and still haven't regretted it.

This camera is pretty easy... Read full review »
