Canon S80
User Reviews of the Canon S80
Some people ignore this camera while your carrying about, but so far no one has ignored the camera''s results. BUT be careful. At a party this weekend when, through courtisy, showed the picture to those who had just been smiling, one of the ''girls'' grabbed it hard and every close picture after is now out of focus. She appeared to squeeze the lens back into the body and with the second picture, when I stopped her taking hold of the camera she clearly knew why!
The camera is great. Make sure the settings have not changed each time you take a picture and if you must display the results using the monitor =Make Sure the Lens is Parked inside the body= so cannot be handled. I''ve learnt the hard way. You don''t have to!
PS There is no X sync socket on this camera, despite what Canon used to suggest.

Pros:
A little workhorse
Cons:
Easy to move settings when changing holding position, taking out of carry case etc. Lens lid slips out of alignment, if your not careful. Focus mechanism can be damaged, see main text. But suppose most amateur cameras are the same....
