We have a Canon 8MP Powershot camera and were very happy with it. With the Amazon price and free delivery under Prime, we decided to upgrade to the 12MP A1100IS.
Yes, I know that going from 8 to 12 is marginally better since we do not plan to print 11×17 poster size pictures. But, we upgraded for the following reasons:
1. The reviews were excellent from both amateurs and professionals both here and on other sites.
2. The AA battery is more convenient than carrying the older proprietary battery and charger from the 8MP model. Since you need to bring AA or AAA batteries along when you travel, this is not an added item but rather replaces the older battery and wall charger. This is expecially helpful when traveling abroad or for extended camping, hiking, or bike trips when you can change the AAs but not necessarily recharge via the wall charger.
3. The controls are more intuitive for my wife. With the 8MP, it was easy to set the camera in the video mode after previewing pictures already taken. Nothing more frustrating than wanting to see that special picture only to find that you had the camera in the video mode and had nothing to show. With this camera, it is much more clearly apparent which mode you have chosen and the preview mode has its own little button.
4. 4X zoom is better than the older 3X.
5. The optical viewfinder is a must and I would never recommend buying a camera without one. If you are so inclined, wait until you are out in the bright sun and cannot see the screen.
6. Small, sleek and fits anywhere.
On the down side:
1. It is a little slow at times, especially when saving the picture.
In all, a good choice. Why pay much more if you are looking for a familty-type use camera? We are happy with the performance of these Canon products and highly recommend them

For the price of this camera and ease of use, this is an excellent buy. I have children and love the ability to take candid or potrait shots. The range of options is precisely what I needed without having to read a manual before taking pictures.

I have a PowerShot A520 and wanted to upgrade. Needless to say, I sent this camera back and went back to using my old camera. This camera left half of my pictures blury and grainy. I am used to using a Powershot and was really surprised when I saw how this one took pictures. The pictures were terrible. I took some more with my old camera and had them printed at the same time and the same place to make sure and it was this camera that did so poor. Do not recommend.

I am very disappointd with this camera, being a canon and suposedly a 12 MP one, I had hoped that it would be a quality product, but the pictures I have been taking are very grainy, even when there is enough light, and when there isn’t , well forget it ! I found that I could not zoom is at all as that made the quality unacceptable, I sent in some samples to Canon to show them what I meant, and they told that this was acceptable ! well, if that is acceptable, then don’t bother with that camera !!

This replaced an older Canon PowerShot. I purchased it despite bad reviews about picture sharpness. As I guessed, the problem was caused by the photographer’s not pressing the button half way to focus and then all the way to shoot the picture. The extended zoom photos are much sharper than those taken by my previous camera. The image stabilizer is an additional help when zooming out. This is one of the few digital camera which still has an optical view finder, which is important when taking photos in the bright sunlight when you cannot see the picture on the LCD screen. Also, it is about half the size of the older model and cost half as much. It uses AA batteries, not expensive batteries that fit only the one camera.
