An excellent tiny camera.

Re: An excellent tiny camera.

I bought this camera 7 years ago and it's the one I traveled across the country with. Makes me happy to see a review for it in 2018 It was billed as the thinnest camera in the world and that makes it easy to love. You get better capability than your phone and it's so small there's never a reason to leave it home.

Although I've added bigger and better cameras to the team, I don't think this one is on the bench just yet. I see it as a camera I can bring along "just in case" a lucky photo opportunity pops up. It's so small you barely know it's there in your pocket but the photos it takes are quite good.

I do wonder what the future holds for the ELPH line. The new one has a good 12X zoom at the expense of lens aperture. It appears Canon and Nikon may be abandoning the "mid range" compact.
