To help reduce the effects of camera shake, Digital IS helps keep blur to a minimum. On top of that, the Auto Zoom feature can automatically close in on your subject and keep it in focus for easy shooting.
* Image processing may cause a decrease in the number of pixels.

Whether you're shooting wide group shots or zooming to the telephoto end, your images will be bright and clear.
20.0 Megapixel* CCD sensor combines with the DIGIC 4+ Image Processor to help deliver stunning image quality
20.0 Megapixel* Sensor

The PowerShot ELPH 180 camera's DIGIC 4+ Image Processor features accelerated processing speed to create fast, responsive performance, giving you a shooting experience that's easy and natural. The DIGIC 4+ Image Processor also enhances image quality in several ways. Processing of high ISO shots has been shortened by up to 60% compared to the DIGIC 4 Image Processor.

Smart AUTO intelligently selects the proper settings based on predefined shooting situations
Click here for a larger imageGetting that great shot can be as simple as pressing the shutter button on the PowerShot ELPH 180 camera. Smart AUTO automatically detects scenes by assessing various factors in both the background and the subject and analyzes them using 32 predefined shooting situations. The camera then makes optimal settings to help facilitate incredible image capture, whether you're shooting stills or video. With Smart AUTO, all you have to do is frame your shot and capture away.
Digital IS helps reduce the effect of camera shake and subject movement
Sometimes even the steadiest of hands can move a little, and during night photos or when zoomed in close, even a small shudder can blur a photo. Digital IS on the PowerShot ELPH 180 camera analyzes the image in order to electronically remove blur and fuzzy edges, helping to ensure you get a clear picture.
Scene Modes such as Fisheye Effect, Toy Camera Effect and Monochrome provide creative freedom to capture your photos
The PowerShot ELPH 180 camera provides shooting modes that can easily give your shots a distinctly artistic feel without the need for any extra lenses and filters. You can make a quirky portrait using the Fisheye Effect or add a beautiful single-tone effect with Monochrome. Toy Camera Effect simulates a vintage look as if capturing the photo using a “toy” or pinhole camera. Smart AUTO The camera automatically selects the best shooting settings for optimal quality based on subjects and environmental factors to provide point-and-shoot simplicity. Program The camera automatically and intelligently selects the aperture/shutter speed combination based on the shooting conditions. Portrait Brings the subject into focus while beautifully blurring the background. Face Self-timer The camera waits for a face to enter the frame before releasing the shutter. Low Light For high-quality image capture in an amazing range of dimly lit situations. Fisheye Effect Now you can get the fisheye effect – a classic photographic distortion – without a fisheye lens. Miniature Effect Give images a miniature look with an effect that emphasizes perspective by blurring the top and bottom of the image. Toy Camera Effect Simulates photos taken with “toy” or pinhole cameras, darkening the image at the edges to create a vignette effect. Monochrome Choose from three single-tone effects Black-and-White, Sepia or Blue. Super Vivid Super Vivid intensifies existing hues, saturating the scene with bright colors. Poster Effect Poster Effect combines several similar shades into one color, turning subtle gradations into eye-catching, scene-popping contrasts. Fireworks Create brilliant images of skyrocketing fireworks. Long Shutter Use to blur moving subjects for artistic effect, ideal for urban night photography. Movie Record video; unwanted scenes can be deleted in playback mode.Actual results may vary from examples shown above.
Final image may vary depending on picture composition.
Enable the Auto Zoom feature and your camera will automatically zoom in to help frame your subject and help keep it in focus
Now, beautifully framed shots using the powerful 8x Optical Zoom are as easy as pressing the Auto Zoom button. With Auto Zoom, the camera automatically determines the correct size and framing by detecting the number of subjects. The system also detects faces that are too small, then zooms in to the proper length. Auto Zoom is a great feature for spontaneous everyday shooting, and especially useful for times when someone else (even a child) is using your camera, for instance at a tourist spot.
ECO Mode helps reduce power consumption for longer battery life
The PowerShot ELPH 180 camera features ECO Mode to help provide a high number of shots per single charge through LCD monitor and camera power management. The mode can be activated via a dedicated button for easy power preservation when you are out for the day or the moment is too important to put the camera down. ECO Mode quickly wakes the camera from sleep when a button is pressed so you won't miss the moment.
Help Button provides simple explanations and easy control of your settings
The PowerShot ELPH 180 camera is designed to be fun and easy to use, even for beginners. A Help Button on the camera's exterior brings up the help menu when you need it, right on the LCD screen. From here, you can scroll through a variety of topics that answer your questions with clear explanations, offer helpful shooting advice and show you diagrams highlighting the position of any buttons you'll need.

Canon includes a "Getting Started" guide, a warranty card, a small lanyard, a 680mah battery, an external battery charger (which is nice if you plan on buying additional batteries), and the camera itself.
With the popularity of smartphones, what is the appeal of this entry-level point and shoot camera? Well, unlike most smartphones, this camera features an 8x optical zoom. This is a great feature that allows you to zoom in decently close while experiencing a minimal degradation in quality. The camera's maximum video quality is 720p but it features quick auto focusing and as mentioned before, good accurate colors. The only issue that I had with the video quality is that the stabilization is not the best.
Conclusion: This is overall a great entry-level point and shoot and I do not think you will be disappointed for the price. The 8x optical zoom is definitely my favorite feature and the photo and video quality is about what you would expect for a camera in this price range. There is no included SD card so you will need to buy one, and there is no included transfer cable (mini USB) so you will also need to buy one of those to load the photos and video onto your computer unless you have an SD card slot. The user interface on the camera is easy and simple to use. This camera is great for those who are not extremely technologically savvy as there is basically no learning curve. Nice job Canon.
Disclaimer: I purchased this product with my own money for my own personal use.

but, as a tiny, solid pocket camera, its great..
size is very small, but still big enough to not "miss-hit" buttons
color rendition, clarity, autofocus, quality choices for photos.. its a great little camera.
i would recommend this to anyone needing a spare that takes up almost no room, or just want to get away with as little money invested, for a travel camera.
i have a Nikon D7500, had a Canon and Samsung travel and super zoom cameras, along with a couple dozen others along the way.
i got this strictly to have as a tiny, unobtrusive yet easy to use " point and shoot" with a modest zoom, decent pixels for quality, and basic options.
its more of a 5 star choice, given its price point.
i only rate it 4 stars, as it does lack a fair amount of features, which i know is kind of hypocritical since thats the POINT of it being cheap, but want people to know if you can get BY with modest features, this is a really good choice for a pocket travel camera.
and any pocket will do,, its about the size of 6 credit cards stacked together.. maybe less..~!!
I bought a spare battery and recharger. I took 1,050 pictures over 22 days, and only replaced the battery twice. The spent battery recharged in 2 hours.
The only problem with the camera is the small cord, which I could not put around my neck. Consequently, I dropped the camera on stone steps, and it got banged up. It continued to produce great photos. I took it to a camera shop, which gave me a long cord to attach to the camera's small cord, so I didn't drop it again. However, the shop advised me that the tiny connections inside could have come loose, and the camera might not work after a few weeks. It got me through the trip, and I will now buy another one to replace it.
