Pros:
- Affordable (relatively).
- Small. Easily fits in a pocket, purse, or backpack. It's lightweight and won't weigh you down.
- Can quickly take photos and video with a single click.
- Uses a micro-sd card so you can download files directly to a device with a slot.
- No batteries.
- No need to adjust anything before shooting, just click the button.
Cons:
- Picture quality not that great. It does not pretend to be a DSLR, or even a decent point-and-shoot.
- Menus are not intuitive at all. You will need to look up the instructions online. The functions are not complicated, but it just takes time to set things up the way you want and the process is kind of annoying.
- No exterior screen to review photos. You must look into the viewer to review, or download to another device.
- No ability to adjust anything (shutter speed, ISO, white balance, etc).
- Uses Canon Connect software which I cannot for the life of me get to work on my phone. I wanted to just transfer all the files to my phone/tablet for review, but the app doesn't work so I have to use the micro-sd card.
- No USB connection.
- Proprietary charger.
So, what is the purpose of this gadget? I have used it in the rain to photograph a bird for ID purposes as it saved me from ruining my expensive camera in the bad weather. The photos are definitely nowhere near the quality I would have had from my camera, but the photos were useful for posting to eBird and iNaturalist. This has been my primary use for this device. I can use it to zoom and quickly ID something before deciding to get my "real" gear out. It's also convenient for iNaturalist because I can take a quick photo and - if the Canon Connect software is working - post the photo on that app.
This device is not for everyone, but if you are looking for a no-frills, inexpensive photographic device that is easily carried in a pocket or packed in a bag, it can be convenient to have on hand.
