One of two very similar A series 'affordable' compacts (the other, the A1100 IS, has a smaller zoom and smaller LCD) offering a stabilized 6x optical zoom and a 3.0" screen with brightness adjustment - but no optical viewfinder. The A2100 IS has none of the manual controls seen on older A series models but does feature Canon's new Smart Auto mode (an improved Easy mode), Motion Detection and Face Detection that can detect up to 35 faces. More stylish and more beginner-friendly than previous A series models (which have traditonally offered a solid feature set and decent output quality in slightly dowdy designs), the A2100 IS signals a new, point and shoot oriented direction for Canon's budget range.

Opinion: Bought this as a "cheap" carry around. one that uses AA batteries and you wouldn't exactly kill yourself if you dropped it.
- Seems to built well and have lots of features.
- Image quality not bad in good light
- Some manual controls but not many
Problems: - Pretty hard to see the LCD outdoors in bright sunlight
- LCD is lower res than the more expensive cam's thus sometimes you think your image is bad until you put it on a PC.
Opinion: I just bought it. Love it for the pictures produce from this mini digicam.
It is compact, but still easy to handle, not too small like some IXUS.
So, it is replaced my 40D in some occasions when DSLR not suitable.
And, yes, because...... it's BLACK :)
Problems: Maybe Canon can use better "plastic" to A-Series Bodies. Some material that Nikon used on their D5000, D90, will be pleased. Or metal based, just like Sony W2xx, Fuji F50/F60fd, that won't add cost too much.
