Product Description
Canon is once again combining its expertise in camera design and advanced digital imaging technology to create the PowerShot S300 Digital ELPH. The camera's ultra-compact and elegant stainless steel design is based on the extremely popular PowerShot S100, and offers new and improved features including a powerful zoom lens, making it one of the world's smallest and lightest 2.1-megapixel camera with a 3x zoom lens. In addition to its high-resolution, and retractable zoom lens, the S300 offers a number of new and improved features including direct print capabilities from the new Canon Card Photo printer CP-10.A new digital signal processing IC in the PowerShot S300 enables high-speed image processing and rapid data transfer through the cameras' USB interface. The PowerShot S300 takes advantage of this feature by offering a Direct Print mode that enables users to print hard-copy images using Canon's new CP-10 dye sublimation printer. The Canon PowerShot S300 can record movie clips with audio. The video portion of the PowerShot S300 movies can be replayed on the camera's LCD monitor. Full audio-video playback is possible with a connected TV monitor or a compatible PC after downloading. Due to the new digital signal processing IC, the S300's movie clip processing speed is approximately 2.7 times faster that other models in its class.

Great camera.......2007-03-01

I've had this camera for at least 4 years. It has survived everything. It's very durable and takes great pics. Even 8x10 prints are great and frame-worthy. The only downside is 3x optical zoom. I'd prefer much more zoom capability as digital zoom doesn't cut it for faraway action shots. The camera is a bit heavy too compared to the newer cameras out there, but I'm going to hang onto this one til it quits.

never failed me.......2004-11-25

I have been using this camere for almost 3 years. I am glad I have chosen this one.
Image quality is excellent if you are going to store images in your computer or print 4x6's. I even printed 5x8s with no image degragation.

We put this one on heavy test. It fell on fresh snow and covered with snow till I pick it up but do damage occured. It also fell on a rocky pavement from at least a 3 feets. Nothing happened other than some scratches, thanks to metal casing.

I am looking forward to use this camera for years to come.

Excellent quality rugged camera.......2004-07-20

Everyone wrote enough about it, so I will only add that this camera worked much better than expected for quite a long time, until during last trip, I dropped it really hard on cement.
The shutter button came out, the case kind of split in half (could see the guts inside), and of course the door for the memory card broke and the battery came off... I just pushed the camera back together and it snapped in place (kind off, still see inside), put back the shutter button (without the spring that came off which I lost), scotch taped the memory card door, and the camera seemed to work fine. Actually we finished the vacation taking pictures with it for a few more days. No quality difference noticed between the picture from before the accident and after.
Now I am back, unfortunately it would be too expensive to fix it, so I guess will buy another ELPH, perhaps 3-4M pixels and if it will be anything like this one, I am sure I will not regret it.

Great Camera... Digital Elph's are great..........2003-12-01

I purchased the S330 a couple years ago, and I love it. I have taken it everywhere and taken almost 1,000 pics with it. I purchased the 128MB card and have yet to fill the card. I have not had any problems and it has been the best camera I've ever had. So much in fact, everyone who sees it wants one and is very impressed. I am now looking into getting one for my brother for Christmas.

Great Product.......2003-10-20

No regrets. Great in every way. Sharp Pictures, fast, comfortable rechargeable battery system. Only advise: Get extra card. I am happy after having bought a 128 Kb. card. Very recommendable.
