Definately the best in its class
Previously owned the Canon Elph 100 HS which was a pretty decent camera. Traded in for the 300 HS and have been more than happy with my decision..especially for $30 more! Both cameras take the most amazing pictures in low light even when it is zoomed in to the max! Read more ...
