5 out of 5 stars   good so far, but more experience needed

Review submitted for Canon PowerShot ELPH 500 HS Brown Digital Camera w/ 3.2 inch Touch Screen (CNPSE500HSBN)
Pros: Short Lag Time, Good Image Stabilization, Great Zoom, Small / Compact, Large Clear LCD, Easy To Use, Fast/accurate auto-focus, Good in Low Light, Nice Body Color, Good Image Quality
Cons:
Other Comments: We bought this camera for size, ease of use and video. We've only experimented a little, but it seems to take good pictures. The video quality isn't as good as we were hoping for. It may take some practice to make smooth video clips. And we haven't viewed anything yet on a 1080p capable monitor. I used the zoom during test videos and I couldn't hear motor noise, but my wife, who has better hearing could hear some noise. Lag time between pictures is much shorter than other cameras our family members have. I can't tell you the camera brands or names, but when I've used them, there is lag. I'm used to using my Nikon D60 for all of my photography needs, but this camera will fit my video and quick shot needs without packing the larger equipment. I didn't want to upgrade my Nikon just for video clips. The touch screen doesn't seem to be as responsive as I've used on other devices. It may just be the difference between manufactures and such. But it does work.

Other Comments: I bought this camera to use when I didn't want to carry my Canon Rebel with a 18-200+ zoom. I went on a trip 4 days after receiving the camera and I was extreamly satisified when I downloaded the pictures to my computer. Fantastic pictures for such a small camera.Imiss not having a viewfinder since the display is difficult to see in bright light at your back. Typical of any camera like this.

Some of the fun settings great, and some a disappointment. Wish it had stitch. Touchscreen is fine. I like the tap feature. Fast start up. Overall Im happy, I just wish for perfect photos every time.
