Canon Elph LT 260 Zoom APS 35 mm film Camera Reviews.

Excellent camera, August 28, 2003
Reviewer: A customer
I bought this camera for my hiking trip in New Zealand earlier this year. I was extremely pleased with it. It's small and convenient, and the pictures it took came out breathtaking! The flash is quite strong: this camera took great night pictures, even where other cameras failed! I also took pictures from airplains, through the glass, and most photos came out very good. Some (not all!) panoramic pictures aren't as sharp as one would ideally hope, but it also depended on how much I zoomed in. For those of you who are unsure whether the zoom feature is necessary, believe me, it is! The camera is very small, stylish and light, and everyone thinks it's a digital. Changing film was a breeze. I used this camera in some rugged conditions in the mountains, and it withstood the test. I wouldn't recommend using it when it rains, though; I don't

think it's waterproof. The only thing I wasn't happy about was the fact that the cord attached to the camera was too short to put aroung my neck. This inconvenience can be easily overcome, though. (Also, I recommend using Kodak APS film and developing it at Kodak, using Perfect Touch.) All in all, a great camera, highly recommended, especially for scenic trips where you need to use the Panoramic viewer: you will be amazed at the quality of the pictures!

Lousy Camera, August 14, 2003
Reviewer: D. Yee
Good cameras are made in Japan. This particular camera, made in Taiwan, has disapointed me more than once. The quality of the pictures is increasingly bad and the investment was a waste of money. Unfortunately, things aren't made as well as they once were.

My husband quickly abandoned his larger more sophisticated camera for this little jewel that I purchased for myself. We travel a lot, have grand children we adore, and send out a Christmas card collage every year. This camera is just the best...and a great price! However, I recently lost the nifty little carrying case which is why I am searching this website. Alas, there doesn't seem to be an available replacement. If you purchase, hang on to the carrying case!

A terrific camera for precise situations, May 31, 2002
Reviewer: Trevor J. Hall

Whilst not quite a point and shoot product this camera is intuitive to use and delivers an almost infinite variety of choice by varying format and focus.
Somewhat larger and heavier than the basic ELPH LT, it is nonetheless small, rugged and totally reliable indoor or out at any time of day or night from southern Africa to Canada.
My first time using the camera I was somewhat intigued by the way the flash and motorised zoom lens popped in and out, but I was soon accustomed to this.
Pictures have been uniformly excellent, allowing for operator error.
If you wish for a camera which will give you the reward for a little care in composing a shot, then buy this one with total confidence.

Red Eye Reduction doesn't work well, February 27, 2002
Reviewer: "wengerlaw"

I like this camera a lot except for the red eye reduction feature. Just about every picture I get back has some red eye glare. This is disappointing since the camera otherwise takes very good photos.

not all the functions advertised were available. for instance, the "mid-roll change" does NOT work. another, the manual focus is NOT available at all.

I got a lemon!, December 31, 2001
Reviewer: A customer

Nothing on this camera worked liked it was supposed to and I spent the good part of a day trying! I kept getting a error message and the focus would not zoom in and out like it was supposed to. Now I am back to deciding if another Elph would not be defective.

Out-of-Focus, November 6, 2001
Reviewer: A customer
The photos from the first roll came out great in terms of color and focus. But the last 2 rolls have produced mostly out-of-focus photos so I'm very disappointed right now. Hope most of you are having better luck with this specific camera.
