  • The camera for macro/close-ups

    When it comes to point and shoot cameras I find there's little difference these days between quality in the better brands. What this camera DOES have that some others don't is the ability to get fabulous macro shots. The focal length is wonderful - you can practically touch the subject with the lens (not really, of course) when taking a shot. Since I'm photographing a lot of insect life that makes this camera a stand out amongst so many others. It has some drawbacks, but again, they are common to all these little point and shoot types. Sometimes it won't focus on the tiny object you want it to because the camera 'sees' another object as the target - the color representation can be poor under different types of light other than natural - little buttons make any fast changes to the shot setup difficult. Battery is proprietary and the charger is a bit of a pain to get the battery seated, but I'll put up with it for all the other pluses - it's a minor annoyance. Otherwise, great clarity, a very nice zoom, terrific macro and good battery life. I'm very pleased with its' performance and purchased a second one for a family member.

  • Canon ELPH 520 HP camera works well now

    Looks like it may have been a store demo model. A lot of handling but not regular use. Just a guess. It had a white torn price tag type sticker on the glass lens. I was able to get it off with my finger nail but a glue residue was left which blurred the image in that area. I used some cleaner for my wife's eye glasses to clean it off carefully. That part was not shown in the picture and description. I installed my own battery, micro card, USB cable, wrist strap and case from my old 520 Canon and all works well now.

  • Nice pocket camera

    GREAT CAMERA!!! Optics are the best with incredible zoom capabilities. (Phone camera's can't do optical zoom). Easy to use for the novice but has full features for the pro. If your camera doesn't fit in your shirt pocket, you probably won't have your camera with you to take that "once in a lifetime" shot.

  • Canon ELPH 520 camera

    I use this in my work for photographing jobs in progress for customers. I have twoof them. They are durable, and power efficient (battery lasts many photos). Canon now has newer, updated versions, but parts for these are available as is rebuild components if required. These are an excellent value, easy to use and a good vaue.

  • Good camera

    Sweet little camera that easily fits in shirt pocket. Take very sharp pics. Only drawback is that it only takes micro sd cards but that's minor.
