This camera has the best quality photo for the price that I've seen to date. I've used other brands but always had one family camera that is a Cannon. The close pictures come in so crisp, clear and clean that it looks like a professional photographer took them with a $10,000 camera. The only thing that I don't like about it is the low light distance pictures don't come out well at all. There must be a way to remedy that and maybe I'm doing something wrong.

I am retired at a young age with a very bad back. I never thought I would ever be a photographer again. As an artist, I have become limited, painting and drawing is very difficult on the neck and back. I now own a powershot sd 1300 and I find it to be a substantial performing camera , even for a workaholic like myself who has always pushed my work to the extreme. Best of all it is never too strenuous to use for someone who has become physically limited. I have renewed HOPE, it gets me out of the house sunrise and sunset without fail, even though it has been too cold in Florida lately.

I researched small cameras on line and found this one had very high marks. The sales person at *** **** said she owned one like this and I couldn't go wrong with it. Boy! Was she right. Best pictures I have ever gotten from a camera. Fantastic prints from my printer. Way to go Canon. Great product. I carry it every where.

For super close ups, pictures takened fron less than two feet this camera is great. But for normal pictures like scenery this camera is poor. The pictures are very grainy and seen to have a haze. The colors never have that "pop" that other cameras I've used have had. Even using a lower or lowest ASA setting the pictures are grainy. Even if you adjust the brightness up a level its too bright . I can never get it just right. I have older 5 megapixel cameras that just blow this one away. I do like the size and shape and how the controls work, just not my pictures.

The SD1300 IS camera far exceeds our expectations as casual users. The ease of use, clear photographs, excellent zoom capabilities, outstanding downloading, and sharing via e-mail or print are fantastic qualities.

My 1st digital camera. I can't say enough good things about it. I wear glasses. My old SLR had to have a special attachment to sort of compensate for that. Not an issue for the wonderful large LCD screen. I've printed photos at a drug store with good results. It has been easy to learn how to use it.

I had been looking for a digital camera with good quality before the 2010 holidays and with many sales to consider I was very pleased to see this Canon PowerShot SD1300 IS in a bundle pack for a very economical price. I was very excited to see all the great features of zoom, and auto mode, and video which were key features that I wanted. This camera has re-opened the enjoyment of taking pictures and videos of the outdoors that I love, and catching candid shots of my family and friends. I am very happy with this Canon digital camera. Thank you.

I LOVE this camera. It really is all I was looking for when shopping for a camera. I was originally going to be getting a camera from a different company that I seemed to love but when I saw this one, I knew I would get it. I got the SD 1300 IS Digital Elph in Green and it is a gorgeous color. I also bought insurance for it when I got it which I would strongly recommend to anyone who takes their camera out anywhere. I recently sold my SD 1300 IS Digital Elph to a friend because I won a nicer camera in a sweepstakes but I really would recommend this camera to anyone. Great for photo and video.

I owned the 1400 IS and then lost it and replaced it with the 1300 IS, when I lost my 1400 IS. At the store there was only a 1300 IS so I thought it would probably be the same. Big mistake. The photo quality is very poor in low light conditions in my opinion, and makes pictures look worse in photo then in real life. The 1400 IS made my pictures look equal or better in quality than in real life. Taking the same automatic pictures on both cameras I noticed a substantial difference.

Pros: Great Zoom, Good Image Stabilization, Easy To Use, Nice Body Color, Good in Low Light, Short Lag Time, Fast/accurate auto-focus, Large Clear LCD, Good Image Quality, Small / Compact Cons: Other thoughts: Easy to use; long life rechargeable battery, compact and lightweight; great pictures.
