Pros:
- Easy to use
- Very good image quality
- 720p HD video
Cons:
- Tendency to overexpose
- Flat contrast typical to class
- Trouble viewing LCD outside

Great point and shoot camera!
Great point and shoot camera! Keep in my back pocket to capture all the fun with my pals on nights out and shin digs. You can read more reviews from more knowledgeable photographers, but if you need something thats easy to hand and makes great pics, then this camera will serve you very well.

Pros:
- Build quality
- pleasing design
- useful focal range with wideangle lens
Cons:
- Screen does not always reproduce the scene faithfully
- slight noise on all sensitivities
- highlight details easily lost

Canon Powershot A3300 IS
The PowerShot A cameras are affordable, creative and fun. They have always boasted high-res images, and Canon continues to push the pixel count with this 16-megapixel offering, the A3300 IS.

suprisingly great
I really do miss optical viewfinders. When in bright sunlight the screen is very difficult to see. This camera is no worse than others in this regard.
Pros:
- Purchased for my wife and she is taking super pictures inside and out
- Focus is prefect
- Photos have very little noise, very sharp
- 16 mega-pixels make outstanding large 4608x3456 shots
- Resolution is excellent
- I could not be more surprised with results
- Color is vivid.
Cons:
- We did have to return the first unit as I did not focus properly and pictures were fuzzy
- If yours is not focusing properly send it back
