Rating: Summary: Very pleased with camera Review: Please add my views to those who were impressed with the Elph 370z. On a recent trip to New york it was small and light enough for me to carry in my handbag so it didn't scream TOURIST, yet produces beautiful photos, including one lovely panorama of Central Park at twilight that I am going to have blown up. I agree that in making it as "idiot-proof" as possible the makers have sacrificed some of the bells and whistles you get with a fancy SLR system, but for most of us civilians who just want some decent photos and nice memories, I would recommend it wholeheartedly. One teensy drawback is that it wasn't as good at eliminating red eye as I would have liked, but this is a very minor quibble.
Rating: Summary: Canon Elph 370Z Review: Small camera, very slimlined and easy to carry. I purchased refurbished and everything is working perfectly. I only wish the zoom was a little stronger, but overall an excellent camera.
Rating: Summary: This camera is well worth repairing Review: Small, convenient, and easy to use. Pictures are good. I had the Flashing H problem also. I took out the battery and the film. Turned the camera on, snapped a couple of shutter releases to drain any leftover power. Put the battery back in and loaded a new roll of film. The H went away. I had tried this a couple of times before; but I set the date and time prior to loading the film and the H was still there. I don't know if this will work for your camera, but it's worth a try.

Rating: Summary: I returned it and went digital Review: We are headed on vacation in a couple of weeks and I thought it would be a good time to get a lightweight compact camera. I had heard good things about the elf, and although I hadn't ever tried APS film I thought this would be a good time. I shot 3 rolls of film, in all kinds of lighting conditions. I tried indoors, outdoors, sunny days, after dark and cloudy days. I have to tell you that repeatedly it felt like the pictures were over-exposed. The elf's ability to balance exposure to suit a setting really goes haywire when it has to balance higher contrast. The red-eye feature didn't work so swell, and my pictures just weren't up to par. We are returning it and going digital. I bought the digital elf and shot several shots, printed them and they give me the pictures, color and resolution I am looking for. I think this little camera was a bit overhyped.

Rating: Summary: Didn't last long! Updated!!! Review: Your can read the specs and see all the wonderful features that this camera has to offer. However, after nearly 8 months of use and less then 10 rolls of film I have found out this. Not all pictures turn out that great. I was disappointed on the quality at times. Recently, a H flashes on the LED screen and I have followed the manual on how to correct this but it still shows an internal error. I can not seem to fix it and Canon so far hasn't helped either.Let me update. Canon stood by their warranty. I sent in the camera as instructed and in about two weeks I received the camera fixed and ready to use. I was impressed with the overall ease and quickness of the warranty repair. This camera has nice features but most I truely don't use. Film that is more costly to purchase and to process. For that reason I would expect better quality pictures but I don't always feel they are much better than standard 35mm. It is nice being able to put this camera into a small pocket and being able to change film mid-roll. We'll see...a few more months of using it and maybe I'll update again and give it a higher score.
