Editorial Reviews : The ELPH 370Z provides all the advantages of the Advanced Photo System in an ultracompact, lightweight package with a powerful 3x zoom. Canon's original 3-point hybrid autofocus delivers precise focusing under a broad range of shooting conditions, even when the subject is off-center. A built-in flash with red-eye reduction adapts to a wide range of lighting conditions. The ELPH 370Z delivers crisp, colorful images with a minimum of fuss.
Buyer Reviews : I know next-to-nothing about photography and I was not ready to pull the trigger on a digital camera. I had been carrying a Minolta 'Freedom Zoom 90' around for about 10+ years, and I was looking for a replacement that would (a) fit into my briefcase/backpack more easily, and (b) be a little bit more idiot-proof (I always seemed to have problems focusing the Minolta).
After a bit of research, I choose the Canon Elph 370Z. After 6+ months of ownership, I am reporting back here as a very satisfied customer. The 370Z has met or exceeded both of my goals. It is extremely portable, allowing me to take my camera everywhere with a neglible weight penalty. And, I'm taking better photos, and it's still the same ol' me that used the old camera. My 'focus problems' have disappeared. Furthermore, I've blown a couple of the photos up to an 8'x12' scale and they retain an amazing level of crispness for such a small camera.
The only drawback (noted in other reviews here) is that the unit is so compact that the flash is still too close to the lens. So remember, 'red-eye reduction' is just that: reduction, not elimination.
Still, all in all, a highly recommended purchase.
