Digital camera reviews of Canon PowerShot SD870IS 8MP Digital Camera with 3.8x Wide Angle Optical Image Stabilized Zoom (Black)
Digital camera Review: Nice pictures
Summary: 4 Stars
My husband purchased this camera for us after cracking the view screen on our Olympus. I have to say that the pictures are very nice and he had a lot of fun with the video feature on our last backpacking trip. The menus aren't too hard to learn (I figured most of it out during some down time in the tent when it rained). I was able to teach my husband to replay the picures and video with little trouble. Very nice purchase overall.Digital camera Review: easy , breezy picture taking
Summary: 5 Stars

Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this camera a few months ago and have used it in a variety of settings. I don't have any complaints about this camera at all. I've had others to admire my camera as well. This was my first digital camera and I am glad that I made this my camera of choice. The video is clear and the pictures are too. Oh! The pictures are so clear and crisp; it really takes nice pictures. I also love the fact that I don't have to buy batteries over and over..it comes with a rechargeable battery. I highly recommend this camera!!!!Digital camera Review: Great Camera

I finally upgraded from a Canon 2MP Powershot. The photo quality, use & battery life couldn't be better for my use. Very happy!Digital camera Review: Exellent Point & Shoot Camera!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have had my own SD870IS camera for about 10 months, and it has retained it's reliability and speed. When I was in the market, I was looking for some features that I wanted in a compact Point & Shoot. Here are those features, and this camera has them:
-Better than average video quality
-fast speed between pressing the shutter button and shooting the photo.
-Very short "Power-up & Ready" time
-Widescreen Shooting Capability
-Big clear LCD display
-Few buttons
-Good Look and Feel
-Solid Biuld
-Long Battery Life
-Support for High Capacity SD cards
-Exellent Macro Capability
I will briefly talk about each of these features.
I was quite surprised of the video quality that this camera produces.
It compresses the video little, hence the quality, using "Motion JPEG" compression. You will be pleased. You can also shoot video in Macro, which is quite impressive.
When you press the shutter button(after pressing half way for focus in some situations), you get a very quick response. This camera also has very short "power-up & ready" time.
I am pleased with the Widescreen shootng Capability this camera has. The wide photos look exellent. This is the shooting mode I use most.
The SD870IS has a vivid 3" LCD display. The brightness is adjustable ofcourse. Aside the display are the main buttons. The functions from top to bottom are: Playback(videos & stills), Direct Print and Multifuction button, directional and Multifunction wheel, camera menu, LCD display options.
I have been on so many occasions with this camera where I shot photos constantly. The battery always lets me exceed 200+ photos. I keep two batterys on me. I rarely have to get out the second battery. This Camera uses a very good proprietary Lithium Ion battery.
I'm thankful for the support for SDHC(Secure Digital High Capacity)that this camera provides. With the Multi Gigabytes worth of photos I shoot on each occassion, my 4 Gigabyte SDHC card always suits me.
I am very pleased with the close-ups I shoot with this camera. I shoot close-ups very often. And about 90% of those photos turn out extremely good.
I hope this review helps you. I am very pleased with the Canon SD870IS compact Point & Shoot.
