Digital camera reviews of Canon PowerShot SD800 IS 7.1MP Digital Elph Camera with 3.8x Wide Angle Image-Stabilized Optical Zoom

Digital camera Review: ... and let there be pictures
Summary: 5 Stars

I have to be honest about this. I really took about a week or so, if not more, to surf the net and read reviews about a plethora of cameras that fit my profile, a point and shoot type of camera that can take professional like photos. I finally made my decision to buy this camera fater I talked to a friend of my father-in-law who really is a camera afficionado. In a nutshell, I can say the following about this camera

Pros: Great size, great pictures, excellent functions, fast switching between different shooting modes. Great camera to learn to take great pictures. The IS function is great!!

Cons: The price tends to be a bit steep for point and shoot camera. The size is a bit big for my pocket (and I have big pockets). The battery meter is a must, but one can do without it once you know the camera and how it runs the battery.

Bottomline: if you have the money available, don't think about it twice. I do recommend buying a proper carrying case for this and suitable SD (I bought a Sandisk Ultra II 2 GB card).

Summary of Canon PowerShot SD800 IS 7.1MP Digital Elph Camera with 3.8x Wide Angle Image-Stabilized Optical Zoom

This is the Digital Elph that's raising the bar. There's everything you'd expect from a camera of this caliber: a 7.1-megapixel CCD to render images in magnificent detail, and a DIGIC III Image Processor for stellar quality and fast operation. Yet what sets the SD800 IS Digital Elph apart is its wide-angle, 3.8x optical zoom with Image Stabilizer technology for rock-steady zooms. The Canon SD800 IS Digital Elph, it's the Digital Elph that's a step ahead.
