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

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

Way back in the dark ages, when photography was all about silver based film and chemical processing, camera choices were much simpler. 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 »

SD800 IS: A digital elph w/ a power shot.

bytheuerkorn Nov 13, 2006
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 »

Canon's A495 - Lean & Mean style

byHoward_Creech Jan 7, 2011
54 Helpfuls 55 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Cheap, very good pictures
Cons None at this price
Recommended it? Yes

The Canon Powershot A495 is a compact digicam available on-line for less than ninety dollars. What do buyers have to give up when they buy an A495?  The A495 doesn’t provide an optical viewfinder, relying instead on the 2.5 inch LCD for framing/composition, captured image review, and...

Low-cost, basic point-n-shoot camera with good video

bydenniskly Oct 4, 2010
17 Helpfuls 18 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Inexpensive, good pictures, easy to use, good video
Cons poor battery consumption,  too long to load flash for next shot, shuttle realease...
Recommended it? Yes

Although I already have a compact camera(Canon G11), it’s still too bulky to carry around, so, I look for a sub-compact camera that can be easily put into a pocket, a basic, no-frill, point-n-shoot and has to be cheap. After a long search I come up with a $99 Canon Powershot A495. I've been... Read full review »
