Do your own search on google for
Canon PowerShot S2 IS Digital Camera complaints.
This is a huge complaint, there are alot of persons with this same problem
and Canon won't recall the product OR pay for it to be fixed.
You call Canon, complain to them, no satisfactory answer.
Then you call BBB and complain to them.
2 months later Canon calls you and says send the camera to them.
They fix it free, it's a hassle--but you don't get ripped off $190.

Rating: - When the Lens Sticks....Camera's Done!
Liked the images this camera took but horrible engineering and customer support. Lens on my camera is stuck and camera is inoperable.

Rating: - BAD CAMERA
Mine CANON S2 IS is about 3+ years old. it has couple of problems Black as been experienced by few other users. I am also seeing outdoor pitures completely washed out. I was planning to use it for couple of more years. Now I am forced to look for other camera.
Please don't rely on this camera (CANON) .
Will CANON listen and fix the issue?

I'm searching for a new camera, and I'm scared to buy another Canon because with all the people that has got the "black" screen this HAS to be an internal ... Read More
Rating: - Awesome Camera, especially for beginners
We actually own the Canon Powershot S2 - bought off Amazon Marketplace. I would HIGHLY recommend doing this to anyone who thinks they want a digital SLR camera. We knew we wanted something better, but did not want to break the bank on a high end camera that we wouldn't make use in terms of features. This camera is excellent. It has pushed us to take better, more high quality pictures, and to try for more artistic shots. We mostly use it to capture day to day things with our babies (who doesn't love baby pictures!), ...
