Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

In response to another review on this site, it is important to note that the camera shoots RAW just like all other similar cameras, and the RAW files can be processed on computer software just like all other similar cameras. It is sad to see that over 70 people have found the other review helpful - when it is totally inaccurate. When a new camera is released, it often takes a few weeks (or even longer) for all the software companies to update their software to accept the new camera's files. I am guessing this is what the problem was with the other reviewer. The Canon DPP software is not at all confusing if you decide to download it. Just pick "convert and save" and the RAW files are converted to your choice of JPG or TIF. While the camera is more of a general use camera, if you understand how to set shutter speed, then you can get shots of moving subjects such as your dog or kids. For the price, this camera is a real bargain. You get the beautiful Canon color and easy to use ergonomics. It is weaker in low light than many of it's competitors - that would be my only negative comment. Again, to repeat: YOU CAN SHOOT AND PROCESS RAW FILES WITH THIS CAMERA JUST LIKE ALL OTHER SIMILAR CAMERAS.
