This is my 3rd canon camera and I will not be buying more. My first canon lasted for 4 years and was good for an inexpensive camera. I was a photography major in school and Canon was a great brand back then. I bought this camera based on that experience. I have bought 2 cameras for my mother and two for myself. They are easy to use, but they just dont last. I am not a major picture taker any more, and for the little use these cameras recieved they die way too soon. This however, died after only a 1 year and 10 months. Also compared to my first camera the 1300 takes crappy little pictures. I should have known for the price. There are just too many versions of the same camera and it is difficult to tell what does what. A few less features and more time on basic picture taking would have been nice. Anyway I will be buying a more expensive and reliable camera and it will not be a Canon. Too bad!
