Canon PowerShot SD1100 IS Digital Camera —

This camera is great for mom on the go!

This was a gift bought for me as a quick carry around camera, when bringing my big dSLR is not convenient. There is so much i love about this camera! The biggest plus for me is the quick switch from picture mode to video mode! I have a toddler who is always on the go so having one unit to take GREAT quality pictures AND video gets two big thumbs up from me. Especially if you just want short quick clips to upload online for out of state family so they never miss a milestone. i could never justify buying a seperate video recorder.

Here is a short list of its pro's for me:

Color Accent - always for a natural, beautiful and EASY artistic look without having to know how to use any complicated editing software.

(digital) Macro - always a clear extreme closeup

the photo to video and back quickness.

The small size, i can fit it in my pocket and head out to the park (or the bar)!

very user friendly, but also has lots of options for a more intermediate user.
