      by Pnapo1, Oct. 27, 2007
    • Pros: Wide angle lens, easy menus

      I use this for business. It is compact enough to put in your pocket, but big enough to be able to hold it and not feel like a toy. Some buttons are small, but overall, very easy to use. I need a wide angle, which is becoming rare, except for the big, SLR...

      I finally switched from a film camera to the 800 IS. It takes great pictures and I print them up myself on an Epson Picture Mate and get beautiful, sharp pictures. It's easy to crop them and I love the image stabilizer. I am not much of a photographer...

      I love this camera. I always doubted a camera this small could take great pictures. I have shaky hands but it takes sharp pictures. I love the feature where you choose a color and then the rest of the picture is black & white. It's made for some great ph...

      If you are looking for the flexibility of a larger camera in a pooint and click, this is it. It's a 7.1 MP camera, and have a 3.8 optical zoom(one of the best in its class). Quite simply, it looks great, feels great and works great. <br> <br>I own the...

      I first purchased the Canon SD900. It was a good camera, but needs image stabilization. If you are taking still shots in fair to good lighting it is a good camera. Well, with 4 kids (three of them 2 year old triplets), life does not stand still for a pic...

      The SD800 IS (IXUS 850 IS), announced just before Photokina 2006 back in September, is a sister model to the popular SD 700 IS (IXUS 800 IS), one of the better ultra compact models launched last year. As well as an extra million pixels or so, the new mode...
