- a fine point and shoot, as point-and-shoots go
I've bought dozens of electronics from Amazon.com over the past 5 years, and non of them needed any warranty service nor exchange. This well crafted Canon certainly looks like it will last, but I've sold it at a loss after a month's evaluation - cannot bring myself to return such a quality product, yet, it's just not for me.

Here is the gist: pictures look fuzzy upon close inspection. This is especially evident in scenes with foliage. I cannot get the clean texture nor the 3-dimensional look as from my Canon Powershot S2IS. Initially I thought the problem was with over-aggressive JPEG compression, a lens sharpness issue, or even slight camera shake, but after comparing file sizes and various settings I think that it is mostly an imager noise issue. Even at ISO 80, the minimum ISO possible, under the brightest of scenes, objects lose their "true look" and don't look like "objects" anymore. Perhaps Canon used a poor sensor, perhaps this is the limit of CCD imagers.

The controls are also very "one-dimensional." Again, coming from my S2IS, which has controls on every surface operable with both hands, it's much faster to get the shot you want. In the SD1000, all controls except zoom are on the back, and its various features (hackable using CDHK - Google for the wiki) require quick fingers since they're buried in the menus. It's like talking with someone without using any contractions.

I bought this as a companion to my S2IS, having tried another Panasonic Lumix. The Lumix FX10 is especially heavy handed with JPEG compression, and its notoriously noisy sensor likewise ruined its otherwise excellent feature set for me.

This is a personal opinion piece by someone spoiled by a bulky, big-lens Powershot S2IS, so you might still find great things to like about this tiny jewel - its minute charger, precision color display, metal body, quick response (impress friends with continous flash photography @ over 1 fps), all screaming top of the line Canon design and Made in Japan precision. If only they fit their next SD series (after their current SD1100IS, which features minor improvements aside from the Image Stabilizer) with some miracle sensor like Foveon or Canon CMOS...

- I will never buy canon products again!
My family has already purchased two canon cameras in the past with no problems. I purchased the Canon PowerShot SD1000 two months ago. I was taking pictures at my friends wedding and the camera just stopped working. It wasn't dropped or abused. There were no signs of any abuse on the camera. I sent the camera to Canon to be fixed under the warranty and recived a bill for $103.53. Canon said it wasn't covered under warranty. After speaking with Canon customer service, the price was dropped 20%. I still have to pay $84.76 to fix my new camera. I went on the website to pay for the repairs. The website let me type in my credit card information and then told me it would not take my information. So in the end Canon still has my camara and has a broken website so I can't even pay for the repairs.

Things I have learned:
-A Canon warranty dose not cover the camara
-Canon customer service is only there to listen to the customer complain, they can't fix problems
-Canon repair website is broken a lot

- Love it!
Ooo! I love this camera! Bought it for a recent trip to China, and it performed wonderfully. I didn't read the manual before I left, but I found the functions easy to use and easy to figure out. Got awesome color, zoom, and even loved the black/white mode! Had no idea the videos record sound as well, very pleasantly surprised when I played back the videos I took.
It's a great size, very versatile in all situations, easy for others to take pictures of you. Love the screen size and the manual functions.
Would definitely reccommend this camera!
