My First & LAST Canon2008-02-17
My sons and I purchased A Canon Sure Shot80 for Mom for Mother's Day. It's less than a year old and the time delay between the shutter opening and the time you actually push the button has slowly becoming a joke, but we're not laughing. The moment your trying to capture is lost while it tests the light, zooms and a 2-3 second delay for the flash. Where is a good ole' Yashica FX-2 when you need one? If there is a brand out there that lasts, is quality through and through and you would reccomend it after owning one yourself for a while, please pass me a note at dfjjj@att.net. Thanks
Great for 1 Year2007-07-16
I bought this camera and was very pleased for about a year until I went on vacation and could not take pictures. The digital display has an H. Instructions do not tell me what that means. I have tried batteries and film, but it will not take pictures any more. I thought the Canon name meant something.
OK but broke quickly after warranty expired2007-06-04
I bought this as an upgrade from a supermarket $35 model and found the picture quality sometimes better, sometimes about the same as the much cheaper camera. After over a year, the H error code started flashing in the lcd. I can now take one or two pictures at a time before I have to remove the battery in order to reset the camera. The flash often fails to work even with brand new batteries because I have tried new batteries and film. Sigh. The warranty had expired so I am left with an $80 piece of junk. Fortunately, my cheap camera had not sold at our yard sale so it's back in service. I am sorry that Canon is now making disposable cameras and marketing them as durable.
Best point-and-shoot camera I've ever owned!2005-12-13
This camera takes great pictures! I've owned several point-and-shoot cameras over the years, and none compares to this one. It's sleek, lightweight and easy to use. I've been extremely satisified with it and find myself taking pictures all the time. Everyone in my family swears by Canon cameras and my sisters and brothers each have one of their own--it's a terrific foolproof little camera. I strongly recommend it to anyone looking for a non-digital camera.
so so camera2005-05-07
I just developed my first roll of film from this camera and I have to say I was surprised how well the pictures turned out. The pictures had nice color and clarity. We bought this camera as a back up for our digital when we go on vacation. I was not impressed with the fact that we had to buy the battery separate. The other thing I disliked was the viewfinder seemed difficult to use. I have spent more money on junk cameras though, so this one is all right for average-joe-picturetaker I think.

Digital camera batteries
Batteries are vital for all photography and makiing sure that you have a spare set is essential if you intend to take alot of pictures. Print digital also recommend that when deciding upon a digital camera keep in mind what sort of batteries it takes. Does it take rechargeable batteries, are the batteries built and do you have to plug it into the mains, or does the camera only take standard batteries, if so then it can become exspensive if you are a keen photographer and use the camera alot. There are three types of rechargeable batteries: NiCD, NiMH and Lithium-Ion. Nickel Metal Hydride are the most popular rechargeable batteries at present. They hold more charge than their counter parts NiCD and don't suffer from memory effect. The one small down fall of these batteries is that they will loose a small amount of charge even if they are not being used, so be sure to check the batteries before using them. When you purchase a new digital camera make sure to ask what type of battery ...
Driving with a cell phone is a lot less dangerous than driving on prescription drugs
There's a lot of debate today about the safety of using cell phones while driving. Statistics show that those who use cell phones while driving cause a much greater percentage of accidents than those who avoid using their cell phones. And the studies have shown that it's not just the physical coordination required to punch numbers into the cell phone while you're trying to work the vehicle that causes accidents; it's actually the lack of attention resulting from driving and talking on the cell phone at the same time. It seems that when you're distracted, you're more likely to cause accidents. In terms of public safety, it's probably correct to say that banning cell phones would reduce the number of traffic accidents. But I think, more accurately, it depends on the person. Some people are operating on, shall we say, lower power CPUs in their heads to begin with. They might be zoned out on prescription drugs, and when you add a cell phone to the equation, they do become a danger to the ...
