The above are just a big sample, and doesn't list all of the options available - Then again there are things like the panorama stitch function which is a little 2008 (you manually match-up each shot) and isn't anything to write home about compared to for example Sony's class leading efforts in this field. There's no hand-grip on the metal body, but the raised relief of "Canon" on the front of the unit gives your fingers some grip - When things get sweaty however, I'd recommend you use the wrist-strap w/o fail to avoid any regrettable accidents! Oh and almost forgot - Takes full HD 1080p video - camera has mini hdmi output too so (once you buy the right cable) you can view your full-scale vids on your hdtv. 1) Good image qualityWide-angle starts at the nowadays-normal of 28mm, first surprise is that it's a 4x zoom, a step-up from the past norm of 3x.

This camera's got Canon's new CMos sensor, coupled with it's digic4 processor it's produces frankly excellent low light images - clean, detailed low-noise pics that haven't had all details blurred away by over-agressive noise reduction. One thing about the size, the 3inch screen takes up most of the real-estate on the back, the d-pad is subsequently quite small, and given how it and all the other buttons sit flush with the body, it takes a little bit of getting used to using your thumb tips or thumb-nail to press them.
