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. Less

Canon has added another fabulous camera to its EOS range: the 450D! This digital camera, recently commended at the TIPA awards for its high performances, user-friendliness and ease of use, is packed full of technologies and special features. Its magnificent 12.2-megapixel CMOS sensor takes lifelike shots at rates of 3.5 frames per second, and its large focusing range picks out details from a distance. The EOS 450D includes a self-cleaning system, which uses three different techniques to dislodge dust from the sensor, and it has a DIGIC III processor to guarantee well-balanced, vivid colours in all your shots. The EOS 450D is easy to handle and use thanks to its 3? LCD screen, which is great for direct shooting, and it comes complete with an 18-55 mm f/3.5-5.6 IS lens. Less

The Canon PowerShot SD800 IS/IXUS 850 Digital Camera

byHoward_Creech Jan 21, 2007
99 Helpfuls 100 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Ultra-compact, 7 megapixels, fast, stylish, user friendly, 2.5" LCD screen, and...
Cons Expensive, auto exposure only, red-eye, and very noisy ISO 1600 images
Recommended it? Yes

Photographers who wanted an ultra-compact camera bought a Riga Minox or a Rollei 35S or they joined the CIA. The digital imaging revolution changed all that. Canon... Read full review »

51 Helpfuls 52 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Size, DIG!C III processor, daylight picture quality, battery life, simplicity, stitching...
Cons Night time / indoors performance (noise & focus time), no advanced controls, limited DOF
Recommended it? Yes

With the current popularity of SLR cameras, why even bother to consider a point-n-shoot camera like the ultra compact Powershot SD800 IS? Well, I have not used a point-n-shoot camera (on a regular basis) for years and always considered my SLR superior simply because of the limitations of the tiny... Read full review »

Pros Great image quality, takes SD cards, lots of convenient features, reasonable price
Cons There’s a bit of a learning curve
Recommended it? Yes

I’ve always loved computers and taking pictures, making my love for digital photography a natural progression. My first digital camera was a 2 megapixel, alkaline battery-operated Kodak with no zoom. Luckily, technologies have advanced, and I’ve had a lot of point-and-shoot cameras that have... Read full review »

Cons Photos are huge and can take up a lot of space on your computer. 
Recommended it? Yes

I had a 35mm Canon Rebel X camera before I bought this camera about 2 years ago.  Canon has a long history of making quality products.  This is one of them.  This is a great camera.  This camera made it easy transition to digital. The body of the camera is not too heavy. ... Read full review »
