The ELPH 300 HS has one serious flaw that could be fixed by Canon with software. That flaw is that you cannot set a high shutter speed for things like sports photography. Yes, you can pick a high ISO that will increase the shutter speed, but this results in grainy photos. Yes, you can use High Speed Burst for sports, but this results in shutter speeds that are too slow to stop the action and it results in small file sizes that cause grainy photos when cropped. THE SOLUTION is for Canon to create a "P" menu item similar to the ISO menu item that will allow the user to specify a desired shutter speed. Canon, please read this and fix this problem.
I bought this camera for a trip to Guatemala. I have had it for about five months and took extremely good care of it. I always wore the wrist strap, I always placed the camera in a case so it wouldn't break, and I never lost the camera. I put it in my bag to take it on a day trip and when I took it out to take a picture I had realized the lens had a dent in it and now the shutter doesn't open. I am very disappointed that it could not stand one day in a bag without getting a dent and it was in the camera case. It turns out the warranty does not cover this and now I have to take it to a shop to get it repaired. Otherwise I was satisfied with the camera.
For the most part, I really love this camera! It takes wonderful photos and I really enjoy having the option of manual mode. My only complaint is the lens cover. The lens doesn't shut all the way when turned off and doesn't open all the way on its own...Customer service was wonderful-- they sent me a refurbished camera an with all new battery and charger etc. VERY QUICKLY, but the new one had the same problem only a few weeks later. I will continue to buy cannon produces because of the quality photographs and customer service.
I've bought several Canon cameras for myself as well as family, and have never been disapointed. But this little thing blew me away. I bought this just before a vacation to Ireland. And was very pleased at the results. Besides the 1080 video quality, the sound recording was surprising for the size. The main reason I bought it was for the low light quality and it was great, even in video mode. Lots of fun features. I especialy liked the "Smile" mode. The auto mode left me with some fantastic pictures, macro as well as landscapes.. For a light weight pocket camera loaded with features, this is worth looking at.
Okay you are looking for a camera that is going to do everything for u at a professional level , for the price and quality this camera is it. its fun,fancy, takes amazing pics with least ammount of errors, out of 600 pics i took i only had to reduo 4 im so happy. You can't go wrong with this cam.
