I got this camera as a surprise for my wife 3 years ago and she loved it. It is very small, so she can always take it with her in her handbag. This comes in handy in many life situations when you want to take a picture and luckily you have this camera at hand. Nowadays, people may use their cell phones for this purpose, but as you know, the image quality of cell phone cameras is terrible. My wife can take a real photo and share it with family and friends who want to keep something valuable. After 3 years of operation, the LCD starts to flicker and needs to be repaired. I checked first to see if Canon is making something that small and they don't, so we're going to spend money to keep using this camera. It's no replacement for professional or DSLRs, but it's a camera we can take anywhere and as such it's captured some great shots we might otherwise have missed.
