Still no definite report on whether Canon uses and therefore has the same video problem as plagued the 280.??

I've been using the camera for a couple of days and shot a couple of hundred photos and multiple videos totaling about 30 minutes. I've used the zoom a lot with both stills and videos. Still three bars. I'm so happy. I'm going to keep going and I will let you know of something emerges. I'm encouraged because, having owned the SX280, I can tell you that it would have failed by now for sure. Fingers crossed,Don

I got on here to ask the exact same question.....is it agreed this is normal? Some insight directly from canon would be very reassuring.

Owner's manual doesn't address these issues. Suggest you go to the Canon website.

Sounds like it may be a bad camera. I have no idea why it would be doing this. Did it function correctly before? If so, it may be going bad.

I have looked at the reviews and it looks like the trend is that Canon's are having this issue. Good luck. I ordered one for myself to use with my Nikon D40 I hope and pray it works.

My experience with using Canon Speedilite 270EX II... the pictures are always Overexposed. To the point where they're completely white-out.

I would call Canon and bitch them out. Sadly, it seems like all the manufacturer are doing the same thing and I think it's a crock. Who wants to sit at the PC and read what I heard is a 96 page manual with COPY stamped on it. I was going to buy the 20is and found out there was no manual. I don't have to have a Canon for a P&S, I would rather find one with a manual, which I haven't yet.

Thanks Tech Guy. I see that it takes SDHC, and the video size limitation is fine by me. I'll have to see if I can get an a solid answer from Canon's tech support on if the 790 can take advantage of the faster in-camera processing Class 6 cards have (the upload to computer speed advantage doesn't mean much to me), and if it varies by brand. I also am wondering if I'll need to replace my current SD card reader if I do buy and use any of these higher capacity / faster SD cards.

Dear Karen:Thank you for your reply. I have also contacted Canon. They were going to send me to the nearest service center, until I told them about your feedback with the same problem. Thanks for your help. I have received my refurbished replacement. I hope this one will stay function. Jeannette

Canon wants the used cartridges back, so it is my bet that you won't know about that status of any individual cartridge. It goes out with new specs, whether used or new.

I contacted canon and you can send to their repair center. I slammed my camera on the floor and the screen went dead. Still took great pics, but unfortunately couldn't see what I was shooting since there is no viewfinder. To repair and shipping it was $110 so I opted not to because the Canon 1100 is now $140. I love my camera. Always took the best pictures. I bought the SX110 and had to return that. Way too professional. I haven't tested it out in the store but does anyone know if the 1100 is the same size as the 750?

haven't used it yet, but my other Canons (also power shots little different model) do record sound on the video. We'll try it tomorrow and let you know! It should if consistent with all other power shots I've used.

I have never tried it for video, however, I would stay as far away from this camera as possible - it is JUNK. There is a major issue concerning the lens getting stuck in the extended position and remaining there. The camera is unuseable unless repaired and in Canada, there is a flat repair fee of $159 (including tax and shipping) - you can get a used one for half on e-bay. My first one was in my pocket when the lens jammed and I had to scrap it. I bought a second one and it jammed while I was using it. Just Google "Canon ELPH lens problems" and you will get a whole pile of hits. Canon must know it is a piece of junk yet instead of giving you a break with repairs, rip you off.

What is the warranty and/or how long have you had your canon? I have read many posts about the LCD breaking. Are there any cases you recommend or that the customer service recommended?Thanks!

Yes I also noticed that. I had purchased this camera last month and returned mine for an exchange due to possibly being defective (after an email exchange with Canon support). Unfortunately they then emailed me that they no longer had it in stock and didn't know when they were going to get more. They could only offer me a refund. They finally showed it back in stock but then I was amazed at the price! I even emailed them to find out why but just got a non answer (to be expected I guess) about how their suppliers set the prices. As you say, this price is higher than Canons, so it makes you wonder what they are playing at. I guess they don't want anyone to buy it from them...! Yes I also noticed that.
