Great camera, excellent zoom, loved the functions.
If you decide to buy the intire kit, be aware that the case is not for this camera - actually it is twice or more the camera's size.

This is a great camera! i mean it takes great pictures and the setting are really easy!
1) battery life does run low but id reccomend buying rechargeable batteries=) easy
2)DO read the booklet manuel and dowload the disc onto your computer, the disk teaches you more than the booklet manuel does, it has so much more information on how to use your camera =)
3)DO NOT USE the yellow wipe that comes with this set, it is to clean ur camera, it has fuzz and can get into the lens and you will have to send your camera off to get it fixed, id use a diff kind of material
4) id buy a LCD screen protector =) just an option
5) Overall this is a great camera and everything that was included was awesom!the case it comes with is perfect size and can fit in ur handbagg/purse *woman* and or you can just hang it over your shoulder... also its very protected cushion like. The usb device is AWESOM! you just put ur memory card at one end and connect the other end to your usb port... Read more

I ordered this camera for its features, megapixles and mainly its optical zoom. I also like the smallish size. I have taken hundreds of pictures with it and really like the quality of them. The quality of the camera is great. I had to replace my last camera due to a malfunction in the lens. Canon makes great equipment.
