    I just bought this camera 1 week ago. I did a lot of reading reviews, since that’s all I could do. they dont cary this camera in stores that you can check it out. I biught it to my sorprise, too much hype for nothing! I have a Canon S410 4mega pixels and it have the same features and the same quality pics! I am a Marine so I take pics of cool stuff on base and the camera its just a waste of money. If you want to have a nice looking camera this is the camera for you. I would sudgess to you to buy a S410 for 100 bucks insted of the 950

    This camera cost so much money compared to the blurry pics it creates. If something isn’t standing completly still then the pic blur’s. For example my new born niece’s were sitting in cribs. I went to take a pic and the camera has huge lag beofre taking, then Sofia moved her head to the left and all i got was a blurred pic. This has happend on more the 50% of my pics and it is upsetting. I had a canon before this one and it s=did the same thing. I figured for more money I would get rid of that problem, but nope. Also I hear this camera has a problem some “E??” error. I would check it out becaus eit is supposed to render the camera useless. So if you do buy this item well i wish you the best of luck.

    We were quite disappointed with the inside, close shots in relatively low light. It was very difficult to produce good photos that were well focused. We may return to an 8 MP camera; our hopes were unfulfilled.

    When I bought this I had heard of others having issues with the lens jamming and now I am getting this error message:

    “Lens error, restart camera”

    I’ve only had the camera a few months and am super disappointed. Our last Cannon lasted almost as long, and the guy whole stole it from my glove is probably listening to my iPod and taking pics with it still.

    Needless to say, not going with Cannon next time. Picture quality was great, but durability is more important.

    After waiting more than a month for the Coach edition to ship, I finally received today. I was completely dismayed at the Coach case for the camera. I have a Canon Powershop SD500 Elph Coach edition which came with a magnetic snap case. It worked great..just open the flap and slip the camera out in a flash. This new fiasco of a case with the SD950IS has a zippered enclosure which must be fully unzipped to remove the camera. Even worse, you have to force the camera through the gaping rows of metal teeth to get it in or out. One of the minor complaints about the camera voiced by some is how easily it scratches. I imagine mine will have grooves from the zipper teeth as I take the camera in or out. Bottom Line: Buy the regular(non-Coach) edition and use the savings to purchase a decent case that is easy to remove the camera from and which doesn’t sratch the devil out of it!!!
