I used the Canon SX10is daily over a period of two months on a trip to Peru, and shot around 600 images during that time. I would call this "normal" use. The LCD monitor on my camera appears to have an anti-reflective coating which resists fingerprints. The coating on the LCD monitor on my camera wore through in less than two months of normal use, and it scratched easily. The paint on the "function set" button on the back of the camera also wore off in less than two months, which I considered an unacceptably short time. This is not covered by the Canon warranty, according to Canon customer service. I had expected better durability. If you buy this camera and intend to have it hanging around your neck and brushing against your shirt, be sure to buy a plastic screen protector to protect the screen, or else turn the vari-angle screen inwards anytime you're not shooting. I don't know what to say about the paint on the buttons wearing off, so I'll just mention that it happened on mine and recommend that Canon use a more durable paint in the future. Otherwise the camera performed about as expected, although it went through AA batteries very quickly. If you buy this camera, also buy 8 rechargeable AA batteries and a rapid charger, and carry 4 spare batteries with you if you anticipate a full day of shooting.Get more detail about Canon Powershot SX10IS 10MP Digital Camera with 20x Wide Angle Optical Image Stabilized Zoom.
