Key Advantages

The 12.1MP CCD sensor ensures detailed and vibrant image quality. The 12x optical zoom lens offers flexibility for various shooting scenarios from wide landscapes to distant subjects. Canon's Intelligent IS system effectively reduces image blur and helps in low-light conditions. The camera supports full manual controls, providing advanced users with creative freedom. It is compact and lightweight, making it easily portable for travel and everyday use. Additionally, the integration of RAW image capture supports professional-level editing and image manipulation.

Limitations

The camera uses a CCD sensor which tends to generate more noise at higher ISO levels compared to modern CMOS sensors. Video recording is limited to VGA resolution at 30 fps, which is less competitive with contemporary HD-capable models. The continuous shooting speed is modest at approximately 1.3 frames per second, which may not suit fast-action photography. The LCD screen lacks a touchscreen interface and has relatively low resolution. There is no built-in GPS or Wi-Fi connectivity for image sharing or geotagging. The camera's autofocus can be slower compared to more modern autofocus systems.
