The Canon ELPH LT 260 is extremely light and compact for those who travel frequently and need a camera that doesn't take up space. It is stylishly designed and includes many performance features to assure sharp, clearly focused pictures. The ELPH LT 260 features a high-quality 26-52mm lens. Its six- element, six-group design includes an aspherical element that produces clear images with natural color. At the touch of a button, the electronic drive zooms the lens from wide-angle to telephoto in approximately two seconds.The five- mode, built-in retractable flash gives you control over a wide range of low- light shooting conditions. Flash features include auto, auto with red-eye reduction, slow synch for night portraits, and off. There's also a real-time shutter that responds almost instantly to enable shooting of action shots. All the features you've come to expect from an APS camera are included. There's a choice of three print formats, drop-in cartridge loading, captioning, and index prints. Captions include "I Love You," "Thank You," "Season's Greetings," "Happy Birthday," "Congratulations," and date/time imprinting.

 A superb camera! June 21, 2000
43 out of 43 found this review helpful
One of the main reasons I first started to look into the Elph collection is that I needed a new camera, and the Elph was small enough to fit in all the places I like to keep my camera's in. Second, the amount of features was overwhelming; 2x zoom, four flash modes, drop in film, a timer, messege imprenting, date and time imprenting, and mid-roll change. After I had looked at it a little more, I decided to buy it. And, it was one of the less expensive Elph's. The camera works great, and the three different types of picture shapes (Paneramic, HDTV, and Classic) make taking pictures even easier. If you are considering buying a new camera, take a look at the Elph LT 260.
The best camera for casual photographers August 12, 2000

I'm consistantly amazed at what Canon can pack into such a small package. I took a Canon Elph Jr. with me to Rome in the fall of 1999, and the pictures it took are spectacular. This camera has the 2x zoom feature, but otherwise it's very similar. The APS photosystem is easy to use, and the index prints and negatives that stay in the canister are godsends for those of us who are less organized than some. I was particularly struck by the clarity of the photos, the richness of the colours, and the ease of use of the camera. While the 24mm APS format is smaller than the 35mm standard film, the resolution is still excellent. Far better than any digital camera under $1000. One of the most useful characteristics is the tiny size. No one believes this is a film camera when I show it to them. And because it fits anywhere, I take it with me in my napsack and shoot photos of anything I find interesting. (I think my friends have come to curse this feature!) Paired with a $100 flatbed scanner to scan photos for your web page, or to send via email, I think the Elphs offer a far better bargain than any digital camera or film camera available today.
Excellent camera August 29, 2003

I bought this camera for my hiking trip in New Zealand earlier this year. I was extremely pleased with it. It's small and convenient, and the pictures it took came out breathtaking! The flash is quite strong: this camera took great night pictures, even where other cameras failed! I also took pictures from airplains, through the glass, and most photos came out very good. Some (not all!) panoramic pictures aren't as sharp as one would ideally hope, but it also depended on how much I zoomed in. For those of you who are unsure whether the zoom feature is necessary, believe me, it is! The camera is very small, stylish and light, and everyone thinks it's a digital. Changing film was a breeze. I used this camera in some rugged conditions in the mountains, and it withstood the test. I wouldn't recommend using it when it rains, though; I don't think it's waterproof. The only thing I wasn't happy about was the fact that the cord attached to the camera was too short to put aroung my neck. This inconvenience can be easily overcome, though. (Also, I recommend using Kodak APS film and developing it at Kodak, using Perfect Touch.) All in all, a great camera, highly recommended, especially for scenic trips where you need to use the Panoramic viewer: you will be amazed at the quality of the pictures!

I would suggest this camera to anyone who wants a reasonable camera that takes wonderful pictures. I got this camera as a gift a few years ago, and have yet to take a picture that does not turn out perfect. (I do however suggest always using 400 speed film.) I have bought a few of this camera for gifts, and plan do buy more for this Christmas season. I have also talked other friends and relatives into buying this for their use! This is a great camera for a great value!
A terrific camera for precise situations June 1, 2002

Whilst not quite a point and shoot product this camera is intuitive to use and delivers an almost infinite variety of choice by varying format and focus.
Somewhat larger and heavier than the basic ELPH LT, it is nonetheless small, rugged and totally reliable indoor or out at any time of day or night from southern Africa to Canada.
My first time using the camera I was somewhat intigued by the way the flash and motorised zoom lens popped in and out, but I was soon accustomed to this.
Pictures have been uniformly excellent, allowing for operator error.
If you wish for a camera which will give you the reward for a little care in composing a shot, then buy this one with total confidence.
