Pros Compact and stylish, large LCD, image stabilization, 4x zoom, resolution
Cons Price, images could be sharper, noisy ISO 400-800, slow flash recycle, red-eye
Recommended it? Yes

I bought the Canon SD700 IS expecting good picture quality, especially indoors. Unfortunately I am disappointed.

I have always liked Canon Digital Elph cameras. I liked the 5-Megapixel SD450 and the 7.1-Megapixel SD550. I really liked the 6-Megapixel Canon SD600. The SD700 IS promises 4x... Read full review »
