Bottom Line |
The Canon PowerShot ELPH 360 HS is a nice camera, considering its price point, as it compares favorably to other models that are similarly priced. It has a 12x optical zoom lens in a camera that measures less than 1 inch in thickness, which is a nice feature. It has almost no shutter lag, which is impressive in this price point. But the ELPH 360 is nearly identical to last year's ELPH 350, which means you might want to consider the older model instead, because it will be available at a discounted price.
