Question: What kind of battery life
Document: I preemptively purchased a couple extra batteries and a car charger for them, so I will never be left with a dead battery. If you are interested in doing this the battery model is listed in the camera specs.or here is a good optionhttp://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004GI6PCY/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00Camera is kind of heavy for a point and shoot, but the camera
Love it i just need to get use to the screen it is very touchie, the battery life seems short so make sure you get extras
Having other Canon products this performed as expected-great. Battery life was a little less than expected so I bought a second battery.
We heeded others comments about the battery life (or lack there of) and purchased the recommended extra-life off-brand product. Good thing! Otherwise, this camera lives up to the great reviews it has recieved.
My wife wanted a small,compact camera at a reasonable price. And ,one that was easy to operate. The battery life between charging far exceeds her previous camera.This camera fit her requirements, perfectly.
If you're worried about battery life, check out the Power2000 compatible battery for this camera; it's available here on Amazon, and (at this moment) it's selling for $7.99 and free shipping. Its rating is 1200 mah, considerably better than the original Canon battery (870 mah).
The camera has some nice features and takes good photos. The zoom is superior to many similar cameras. Battery life however makes this camera not very functional. A day out with the family leaves you wondering if the battery will last. Much worse than last Canon camera that I owned.
The service provided by Amazon was flawless as usual but this product with the touch screen was less than perfect, its kinda like a IPad wannabe but unfortunately isnt so stick the the IPad for Ipad functions and with a camera for camera functions.This was a poor attempt at combining the two. Touch function was frustrating at times to work with and battery life was less than most.
I bought this for my 6 week trip to France and it was amazing!I was searching for cameras for a few weeks and Amazon had this amazing deal where it was only $150, but I had to buy it that day.Sold. After reading many reviews about the ELPH cameras, I was worried about the battery life. Seriously, it was no problem at all.The battery did die after 2 straight hours of my dad trying to figure out all of the intricacies.
I think that this feature is annoying and it makes it nearly impossible to take candids. I'd also be self-conscious of shooting in certain circumstances.The Canon gets lousy reviews on battery life, which doesn't seem surprising. The rechargeable battery is the size of 1 AA and it has to light up a 3" touchscreen. All of the reviewers suggested picking up a spare. Amazon offers many of them in the $10-$20 range.
Answer: Naturally depends on use...mine has been great when taking pics (6 hours); video-about two.
