Canon PowerShot SD800 IS

“A slim, stylish body, a wide-angle lens, very good photo quality, and snappy performance make the Canon PowerShot SD800 IS a great point-and-shoot.”

“The Canon SD800 is an excellent performer no matter what aspect you consider, with superior focusing and low light performance matched with a powerful flash that doesn't make you wait all day to recharge. And with a day-long battery, you couldn't ask for a better companion no matter where you're going.”

“So then, what Canon gives with one hand - the wider lens, better screen and other tweaks - it takes away with the other (reduced image quality). But the SD800 IS still has all the qualities I loved so much in the SD700; it's fun, reliable, has image stabilization, is built and styled beautifully and it produces attractive, punchy results without the need for manual intervention.”

“If you're in the market this holiday season for a stylish, durable, and ultra-compact model that captures awesome photos and can be tucked away easily, then this might just be the model you're looking for. With 7-megapixels of resolution, you can create stunning prints up to poster size!”

“--- But I can say this about the SD800: its combination of style, performance, image stabilization, and that wide-angle lens makes it pretty hard to resist. It earns my recommendation. ”
