Like a Beautiful Woman!

by fa1sal , Oct 24 '99
Pros: Size, ease of use and style
Cons: Slow Shudder Speed
“My Baby.” That’s my name for my Elph 2. I had the original Elph Jr. and loved it so much, that I bought the sequel. I took 100s of pictures and found it to be the most reliable camera for a fast moving person like myself. I’m not a professional; I just...

ELPH 2 Comparison to the Original Elph

by tennis_player, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Dec 05 '99
Pros: Rugged, well-designed, easy to operate, great value, take-anywhere/anytime camera
Cons: Flash could be stronger and brighter red-eye prevention light
The new Canon Elph 2 replaces the original Elph. It is still the same rugged stainless steel body and I would hope it is as reliable and tough as the original Elph. It is slightly smaller. It is a bit thinner so the total mass is about 20% less but...

Elph2: Limited Perfection - Additional Comments

by tennis_player, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Dec 05 '99
Pros: rugged, outstanding size and user friendly, great value
Cons: wish it had better red-eye reduction and greater flash range
It is very obvious that Chester, in his Epinion, is highly familiar with 35mm photography. Just a minor error that does not detract from his Epinion in any way - he notes that the flash modes include a "rear-curtain, (night mode) function. This is...

Canon ELPH2 LATEST MODEL

by rlmyers , Dec 17 '99
Pros: Light, easy, fast, cute
Cons: less than professional optics & metering
A vacation dream camera. Very small, very light, easy to load, easy to operate. On the other hand, if you want professional looking vacation photos you will have to drag that SLR with multi lenses and all the other goodies which help to make all your...

Elph2: Limited Perfection - Additional Comments II

by tennis_player, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Dec 19 '99
Pros: still a great camera design and construction for the money
Cons: still poor red-eye reduction and weak flash
These are additional comments regarding the Elph2.

I strongly urge Elph owners (all models) to purchase the remote controls available (RC-1 or RC-5 about $20) and a small mini tripod (Clampette @ $10; Giotti @ $20; Ultrapod @ $10 from REI or...

KickButt Camera in a Tiny Chrome Box

by rhino , Jan 04 '00
Pros: Small
Cons: Easy to put your thumb over the lens
I have been snapping pictures like Mr. Griswold since I got this camera on Christams day. This thing rules. The new 24mm format is effortless and far better than the old bulky and awkward 35mm.

I especially like the burnished chrome front...

Worth your money.....Now say cheeze!

by Kyra , Jan 12 '00
Pros: Compact body, High quality APS photo's, many advanced settings to meet every photo situation
Cons: It's easy to place your finger over the lens when taking a picture.
My first impression was....It's so little!

Little it may be, but don't underestimate it's technology or quality.
I just developed my first 2 rolls of film from this camera and the prints came out every bit as good as I expected them to....

The first true Pocket Camera I've ever owned

by mkruse , Jan 13 '00
Pros: TINY! Good quality, very easy to use.
Cons: Really small buttons
The Elph2 by Canon is tiny! When the ads say you can put it in your pocket, they are no exaggerating. This is the first truly handy, portable camera I've ever owned. I love it.

I had been wanting to buy the original ELPH camera since it came...

This camera rocks! Make your friends jealous.

by rebeccask3 , Jan 16 '00
Pros: Easily fits in any pocket so you can always carry it with you!
Cons: It takes a little practice to take the best photos with this fun camera.
This camera rocks! It's the best camera I've ever used and it's fun. The Elph 2 fits right in your pocket, even your jeans pocket, so you can take it with you everywhere all of the time.

It's also less likely to be lost or stolen since you...

Cons: Tiny controls
I took this camera on a London vacation and I have a great collection of photos to prove it!

The Elph 2 is truly a pocket camera... tiny and light-weight... which is why it is such a great vacation camera. The Advanced Photo System allows you...

Too darn cute

by cdobrin , Feb 01 '00
Pros: small, looks cool, great pics
Cons: almost too small, expensive
Admittedly, I bought this camera because it looked cool. I have never owned a camera, and being a technology geek, I just had to have this one. What a surprise when I got the pictures back the first time. All I can say is that this thing is amazing....

by Cynthia411 , Feb 07 '00
Pros: Small, Lightweight, Takes great pictures, Wonderfull Closeups
Cons: The film and developing costs a bit more then 35mm film but only about $1 more
I bought a Canon Elph2 camera on Saturday. It is very small, the size of a pack of ciggeretts. It is just great. The easist camera I have ever used. It lets you take 3 differnt types of pictures. You can zoom in for closeups, it has auto focus and auto...

Good first-timer's camera

by BakeryBob , Feb 14 '00
Pros: reprint selection, small size, 2X zoom, APS, midroll change
Cons: low picture quality, difficult option selection
The Canon Elph 2 is a moderately priced (around $250) APS camera which offers a good range of functions and has acceptable image quality, in a very small package.
The camera is tiny, as are several of the newer Advanced Photo System cameras, and...

ELPHs aren't only for Santa Claus

by aurora197 , Mar 01 '00
Pros: size; convenience; coolness =P
Cons: flash isn't very strong; only 2x zoom
I have to admit that I bought this camera on a bit of a whim. I just liked the way it looked. I had originally intended on buying another Olympus Stylus camera for my sister, to replace the one I that I had kidnapped and taken to college with me, but I...

It fits in my purse!

by imapeanut , May 01 '00
Pros: take it anywhere
Cons: small buttons
Have you ever said "I wish I had my camera?" Well you no longer have an excuse. My husband gave me this camera after we had our first child. I keep it in my purse.

The Elph II is a nice looking compact camera. It is very durable...
