I had a friend who had the Canon ELPH 650 and could never understand how her pictures were always so much better than any I took, even when we were taking pictures of the same thing standing right next to each other. It was insane. I was going to buy a newer version, but read the reviews that many folks thought the older models were better - so I was happy to find this in new condition on EBay. I can not believe how much better the quality of my pictures is with this camera. Amazing sunsets, indoors, outdoors, even video. So simple to use, because I am obviously not a 'photographer' just someone that likes to capture my memories as clearly as possible.
My niece had this camera and her photos were amazing. She showed me all the features and I HAD to have one to replace my heavyweight Canon A40 PowerShot. It's lightweight, easy to carry in pocket or purse, has a large display and a variety of shot modes. Love it!
I'm currently on my second SD550. I wouldn't trade it for anything so it occurred to me "What will I do if this one dies?" Ebay to the rescue. Got a second backup 550 in excellent condition at a great price. It's actually in better condition than mine. My wife and two kids all have newer and more expensive PowerShots and trust me, the 550 takes better pictures. Now with my two 550's I'm set for life or at the least, a very long time.
I bought this to replace my same model that has a broken flash. I like this old model because it has an optical view finder, which has become rare in low priced cameras.
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
Great camera!! I wanted a small pocket camera that gives good quality pictues. This is the camera. Pictures are great...great color with enough zoom for my needs. My daughter has had this camera for five years and it has traveled all over the globe with her and she has awesome pictures and memories. I have a bigger cannon but wanted a small one to grab when I didn't want to take my big one. I would definitely recommend this to anyone!!
