5.0 out of 5 stars Which of the SDxxx Series is right for you?, April 18, 2005
This review is from: Canon Powershot SD500 7.1MP Digital Elph Camera with 3x Optical Zoom (Electronics)
Let me begin by saying that Canon makes exceptional digital cameras; the best in the market right now. This is because they have always used high quality components since they began manufacturing digital cameras. This one is no exception.

Now that I've sold you on a Canon, which one should you choose?

First off, let's see if you really need an SDxxx camera, or would be better suited with a cheaper non ultraportable camera.

The SDxxx Series offers several key advantages over less portable models:

-Beautiful, sleek design and metallic body will wow anyone who sees it.

-Gorgeous 2 inch LCD screens

-The excellent Dig!c 2 processor (other Canons only have dig!c 1)

-Much better movie mode than previous Canons

-Small light, easy pocketability

On the other hand, there are some significant drawbacks due to the components Canon had to use to get the camera so small:

-Few manual... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Canon SD500 vs Sony DSCP200, March 13, 2005

This review is from: Canon Powershot SD500 7.1MP Digital Elph Camera with 3x Optical Zoom (Electronics)
I am probably one of the first people that can now say that they have owned the new Sony DSC P-200 and the new Canon SD-500. In another review, I noted why I was not pleased with the picture quality of the Sony (lots of blurry pictures and unnatural color). I went out and got the Canon today. WOW! Big difference! I've taken about hundred shot with the Canon, in varying lighting situations, all in auto mode, and not one blurry picture!!! The quality, detail and clarity is much better than the Sony in my opinion. I did not conduct a rigorous test, but just took some identical shots in identical lighting with both cameras, and the Canon won hands down. Sharper pictures. More detail. More natural color.

The Canon is very small, definitely pocket sized, but still easy to hold firmly. It powers up quickly, so you won't miss that quick shot. I can't comment on most of the manual features of the camera because I've been shooting in auto mode, but based on my experience so far,... Read more

This review is from: Canon Powershot SD500 7.1MP Digital Elph Camera with 3x Optical Zoom (Electronics)
Before I took the family on a Disney Cruise to the Carribean, I shopped for a digital camera. I spent many nights reading reviews from various sites, compared prices vs features, size, megapix, accessory cost, memory card price,etc. I narrowed it down to a Sony Cybershot vs the Canon. I can say that I am not a pro photographer in any sense, but I enjoy snapping "tourist" photos and ones of the family so one day when I am senile I will remember. THIS CAMERA TOOK FANTASTIC PHOTOS, FOOEY ON THE NAYSAYERS. The only reason their pictures turned out blurry is because they cant hold their hands still!

WHY I'M GLAD I DIDNT BUY THE SONY:

Sony memory cards are a rip off (try pricing their high-speed ones versus regular SD high speed), their spare batts are a cha-ching, and their fragile LCD's are complained about a lot. Even though the Canon camera itself costs more than the Sony camera did, the Sony accessories would have cost me more than a fully loaded Canon w/... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Best compact camera, October 6, 2005
This review is from: Canon Powershot SD450 5MP Digital Elph Camera with 3x Optical Zoom (Electronics)
I bought this to replace SD400. I thought SD400 is perfect, and the perfect just got better. Here are the highlights of my opnion

Pro (Common with the predecessor SD400)
* Superb image quality (this is also agreed by dpreview.com). Image quality is not just mega pixel, but also the clarity and sharpness. Canon cameras produce less "noise" than other brand. In case you don't know what noise in photography means, it looks like random sand grain on a low-light photo
* FAST! Much faster than Sony (turn on, shoot, and zoom)
* Despite its small size, it has many shooting modes (e.g. portrait, night), including manual
* It can stand on a flat platform for a timed self portrait (some super compact camera can't)

Improvement from SD400
* 2.5" screen as opposed to 2"
* Timezone feature. Now it is easier to set the time when you travel. No need to wait until the 0th second of the next minute to press OK.
* Guide line option. When enabled,... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars A FEW SMALL ANNOYANCES, November 6, 2005
By 
This review is from: Canon Powershot SD450 5MP Digital Elph Camera with 3x Optical Zoom (Electronics)
I recently bought this camera as a replacement for my worn-out Pentax Optio S50. Overall, I have been pleased with the Canon though it has a few little problems.

Pros:

-Very rapid turn-on and shoot time (about 1 second)

-Short time between shots. There is a feature that you can select where you can hold down the picture-taking button, and it takes one photo about every .5 seconds until you release the button.

-Good control of manual features; you can take photos while using the function menu. The menu is displayed on the side and bottom of the screen.

-Optical viewfinder. One of the biggest reasons why I bought this camera was because it had an optical viewfinder. Most very portable cameras do not. Optical viewfinders are not for everyone; they are basically only good if you take a lot of photos and you worry about the battery. Obviously, buying an expensive spare battery negates this issue.

-Nice movie features... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars amazing!, November 11, 2005
This review is from: Canon Powershot SD450 5MP Digital Elph Camera with 3x Optical Zoom (Electronics)
This camera is amazing! I would recomend it to anyone that wants a great camera for a great price. Overall, the cameras pros highly outweigh its few cons.

Pros
-Easy to operate
-Small, compact size and it looks great!
-Big LCD screen at 2.5" It seems so much larger than the SD400's 2" screen. 1/2 inch really makes a difference!"
-Takes photos quickly, sharply and accurately
-Great photo quality at ISO's under 200 (400 max ISO)
-Many different scene/shooting modes that are usuful for all kinds of moments
-Videos look great

Cons
-Grainer images at ISO 400, although it's not bad
-Flash can be overpowering at times
-Video files are very large

Obviously this camera's ability to funtion and take great shots is very high, and as you can see, this camera has few things that are dislikable. I would recomend this camera for any person, regardless of age or experience. It's a great camera, and wheter you want to... Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars OK camera, but shutter lag is a killer, December 28, 2009
By 
Jeff S. (Chicago, IL USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This camera has all the settings and features I wanted. The flash pops-up with a simple flick of your finger. The screen is huge (no viewfinder, but it doesn't need one). But the lag between when you press the shutter and when it takes the picture is excruciating! It's a real bummer because you will constantly miss the shot you want to take by about 1 second...and that is a really long time when taking photos.

4.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Camera!, June 28, 2010
I've owned several digital cameras, but this one is my favorite out of them all. My favorite thing about it is the fast shutter action when you turn off the "auto preview" so the picture doesn't show right after you've taken it. Other cameras have had this feature, but doesn't speed up the shutter action like this one. Especially nice when trying to get that "perfect shot" of my grandkids. They move so fast, I miss some good shots just waiting for the "ready" light. The best part of this camera is the zoom!!! 10x optical, 10-15 x digital. It is awesome! Pictures of my granddaughter at her softball game came out clear and crisp even with full zoom!! Image Stabilizer is AWESOME! So much better than any other camera I've owned! It is the first camera I've owned with a slide show feature.. I like that. It has an automatic orientation feature, so no matter how you turn the camera in the review mode, the picture turns right side up.

The only downside I can see is the... Read more
