Good – I was tossing between a sony T10 and this camera, but decided to go with this one. My sister has the canon ixus 70 and her images were a lot better than the sony t3 I had at the time. Aside from the weight and size of the camera, I haven't had any problems with the camera. I've had it over a year now. The picture quality is fantastic and it's very easy to use. I've also found the battery life to be a lot better than my previous sony t3. It's a little larger and heavier than other canon digital cameras. Like many other digital cameras, when you zoom in too much, the image becomes too pixelated.
