SD870IS is better than this newer modelDecember 1, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I've had the SD870IS for over a year now and I can tell you that it's the best Powershot camera Canon has ever produced. Something went terribly wrong with the SD880IS camera Canon recently came out with and this is why you should look towards getting the SD870IS over the SD880IS. You can see the real difference when taking picture in doors. With the SD880IS, all pictures seem to come out grainy and washed out. I thought I had a bad camera, so I returned it for a replacement. The replacement took even worse pictures, so I returned that one as well. I think Canon cheaped out when producing this new model in trying to sell mass quantities for a lesser price. Shame on Canon for putting out such rubbish! If you want the real deal and the best Powershop Canon on the market, get the SD870IS and you will never look at any of the other models ever again. Just look at all the positive reviews for the SD870IS and you will understand what I mean. As for the SD880IS, all I can say is Get Outta Here!
Typical Canon the best cameras madeDecember 1, 2008 Good point & shoot. Easy to use and understand with necessary options. R. Tyson, Michigan
great potential, but too much noiseDecember 1, 2008 I am photographer with years of experience and have used over two dozen digital cameras (from DSLRs to point-and-shoots). This is a fine camera, except that it suffers from excessive noise (even at 80 and 100 ISO) for it to be fully useful. The 10MP is of limited value, as most of the pixels are smeared by the aggressive noise reduction. Bumping down to lower MP levels does not alleviate the problem. Could be a good camera to use in full sunlight or outdoor shots, but not for anything indoors. While one can't expect any point-and-shoot to have the sensitivity of a DSLR, my old Canon SD1000 pocket cam performs better than the SD880 in this regard.
Amazing for PriceDecember 1, 2008 This is really my first real digital camera, and i love it. It took me a while to learn the controls and how to use the clicker wheel or whatever, but after that I had it on lock. It makes photography easy because of how it has so many automated settings. All you really have to do is take the shot. let the camera do the rest. I think its probably the best camera for the price.
Great point and shootNovember 30, 2008 I got this for my wife who likes to take photos occasionally but doesn't want to fuss much.
This camera can take really decent photos. Like all P&S, its Achilles heel is flash photography. The flash is good but you can tell it was used (vs say using a nice flash attachment and bouncing or diffusing it). But I set it so that in the P setting, it is 400 ISO with no flash. Consequently all my wife has to do is switch to P mode with her finger and she can take the same indoors shot with no flash. With the image stabilization and 28mm setting, that about does it great indoor shots during the day or evening with no flash.
This has a great macro setting in its pre-set scenes that you can easily cycle thru with its iPod-like dial. You can get about 2" away (flash is off or at least doesn't seem to fire).
The color saturation is nice as is the auto-color balance. The auto face-detection is funny to see kick in - even if you are taking a photo of a photo, you will see little boxes form around the faces in the LCD.
The wide LCD and 28mm really are good features. It turns on fast, you can set it to take multiple exposures (but I think that will turn off the flash).
You can set a lot on it manually - three things you cannot do are: manually set the focus or speed (most P&S users never would anyway) and adjust the flash with a flash exp compensation. It has a number of really nice scenic settings - from taking aquarium photos to snow scenes to an ISO3200 for really dark stuff - although it is very grainy. Of course it does video too.
The product shipped fine from Amazon. Has nice review features - easy to delete photos when you want.
