Used but in Great Condition
Canon Powershot S3 IS 6MP Digital Camera
You are bidding on a Canon PowerShot S3 IS 6.0 MP Digital Camera. I am the original owner of this camera and it was purchased brand new. The camera is in excellent working condition, never had a problem or repaired. It takes great pictures and the Image Stabilization is an awesome feature. I also love that the display swivels out and rotates, so you could even take a picture of yourself and see exactly what you are taking!
I am looking to upgrade so I am selling this camera to offset the cost of a new one. There are some light scratches on the display of the camera from use (see last picture) and the lens is free of any scratches or marks.
I am also including a 2 GB SD Memory Card.
It uses 4 AA batteries and I would suggest investing in rechargeable batteries.
The sleek PowerShot S3 IS digital camera offers you high resolution, an extra-long zoom, advanced yet easy-to-use movie functions plus great new shooting options. Also, with Image Stabilizer technology, images and movies taken with the S3 IS are sharp and smooth, even when the camera gets jostled. It's everything you need to capture the fun, excitement and beauty of your active life - wherever it takes you!
