Basic Functions
3-Point Smart Autofocus
Canon's Smart Autofocus keeps images sharp and precisely focused even when the subject is off-center by automatically measuring the scene at the three separate points across the frame.
Self-Timer
Just push the button and you have 10 seconds to get in the picture before the camera automatically releases the shutter.
Red-Eye Reduction
The Red-Eye Reduction works automatically to help assure natural looking eyes in your flash pictures.
Light Guide Zoom Flash
Canon's innovative Light Guide Zoom Flash eliminates hotspots and provides bright, overall illumination in low-light or backlight situations. A minilamp shines immediately before the main flash to provide Red-Eye Reduction.
Date Imprint
To remember a special occasion, you can imprint your pictures with the date in your favorite format: Year/Month/Day, Day/Hour/Minute (24-hour clock), Month/Day/Year and Day/Month/Year.
Creative Features
Exposure Compensation
Use this manual setting to avoid underexposure of dark subjects against a light background or overexposure of bright subjects against a dark scene.
Real-Time
Real Time Shutter Release is super fast so you can capture life's special moments without delay -- as soon as you see them. It's shooting at the speed of life!< p> Shooting Modes
Auto
In Auto mode, the camera automatically chooses the precise shutter speed, aperture and focus settings. All you have to do is point and shoot.
Action
Action mode uses Canon's advanced autofocus technology to track moving subjects and keep them in continuous focus until you take the shot.
Night Scene
This mode automatically slows the shutter speed and fires the flash to give you nighttime shots with bright foregrounds and radiant backgrounds.
Portrait
By automatically zooming the lens to head and shoulders composition and softly blurring the background, Portrait mode makes taking perfect portraits easy.
Close-up
Close-up automatically adjusts the camera's focal length and minimum focusing distance so you can capture fine details in razor sharp focus.

Great little camera!,

This review is from: Canon Sure Shot 115u 35mm Date Camera Kit w/ Zoom (Electronics)
I'm a person who needed Basic Camera Use 101 and Cameras for dummies so my sister bought me a Canon Sureshot for Christmas fifteen years ago. I liked it so much I replaced the old one with this current model - although the old one was still going. It's extremely user-friendly and near-impossible to take a bad picture with this great little camera. Forget the more expensive models - for the average tourist or family shutterbug, this is what you need. Great value for the price and it's also very forgiving. I slammed mine around a lot like the idiot I was but it's like a Timex - keeps on going. Highly recommend. Makes a great gift

If you ABSOLUTELY need a zoom. If not....,

This review is from: Canon Sure Shot 115u 35mm Date Camera Kit w/ Zoom (Electronics)
Let me start off by saying that I am a bit of a traditionalist when it comes to photography. All things considered, I would much rather shoot film than digital. I primarily shoot in B+W, with an SLR, process my own film, and if I need a digital copy, I'll have the film scanned. I own a terrific little digi-cam (Canon S330), but I never fell in love with the format. I also use my 24mm and 50mm lens more than any other in my bag.
That being said, I wanted to compliment my SLR system with a small 35mm camera to carry with me all the time. I considered a Lomo, but decided against it taking into consideration the reliability issues. Since I love my EOS Elan 7e and the S330 performs commendably, I choose a Canon Sure Shot 115u. I wasn't very impressed with the first few rolls, but I wasn't expecting much from a point and shoot. After about 10 or so rolls, I did some research (perhaps later than I should have). I learned that the key to a good point and shoot was the speed of the lens. Very few point and shoots have fast lenses, and a big whopping zoom only slows down the lens more. The lens on the 115u is an f5.6 at its fastest, with the zoom fully retracted. This makes camera shake an issue, flash photography a must, and a tripod a necessity indoors. More than this, the camera is just slow period. It takes a while to open up when the power is switched on, the auto-focus and auto-exposure take an eternity, and even in the "Real Time" mode, there is more than an excusable delay when shooting. I find that all of the modes are more a distraction than a creative enhancement. If you think you need a zoom lens, you don't; move closer to your subject. If that doesn't help, the photograph probably wouldn't have been that good with the zoom lens anyway. The pictures were OK. If this was the only point and shoot I ever used, I probably would have been happy. Canon lenses are well designed and most of the photographs were crisp and clear. When everything was set right, it took a nice photograph. However, I wanted a camera to take a photograph on the fly. I think Canon engineered a camera that performs well within the limitations of a point and shoot with a zoom. However, with the research I did, I ended up purchasing another point and shoot that I am enamored with, the Olympus Stylus Epic (I reviewed that camera as well). If you think you need a zoom and are willing to sacrifice the ability to shoot from the hip, then go with this camera. It will serve you well. I still have mine even though it does not serve the purpose intended.

Great Camera,

This review is from: Canon Sure Shot 115u 35mm Camera (Electronics)
I am not a professional photographer. However, I do like to take pictures. I primarily purchased this camera because of its zoom feature. I've owned Canon products in the past and have been satisfied with them, but I was wanting a camera that would allow me to zoom in on objects and people if I wanted. The Sure Shot 115u allows me to do that. The camera also includes all kinds of other features including a dating feature, timer, and optional flash. The camera has a whole on the bottom that allows one to place it on a tripod if one so desires. There are also many other features on the camera, but I haven't owned it long enough to figure out what they all are. However, in the time that I have owned it, I've found this camera to be quite useful and the rather inexpensive price I paid to own it a bargin.
