Canon PowerShot SD880IS 10MP Digital Camera with 4x Wide Angle Optical Image Stabilized Zoom (Silver)

Its so easy to capture the magic of every moment when SD880 IS Digital ELPH comes along for the ride.Theres a terrific sense of creative options for your photographic sense with a wide range of shootingmodes and a wide-angle 28mm lens--all because your camera sees the world without limits. Of course,its a stylish point of view from a camera that merges up-to-the-moment performance with the art ofimpeccable design.
Customer Review: Great pocket camera
I know a fair amount about cameras. I have large expensice cameras and have carried a Canon powershot sd550 7.1 megapixel which is older and took great photos. Have enlarged many of the photos from the sd550 and they look great. I dont really want to carry the larger camera because of the great quality with the smaller cameras and the ease of their use. I wanted the wider lens on the sd 880. It is great! better than the 550 since the wider lens is good for outdoors and architecture photos.Great movies also. Got the 4gig sdhc card from amazon for like $18 which was a deal. I was looking at the sd990 which is over 14 megapixels bout it does not have the wide lens. This none is great.
Customer Review: Great camera, great service
There isn't a better place to shop on line or "off line" than Amazon.com. Service, price and response time can't be beat. It's the only way to shop. thank you. BKramer

Canon PowerShot SD800 IS 7.1MP Digital Elph Camera with 3.8x Wide Angle Image-Stabilized Optical Zoom

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. Wide-angle 28-105mm (35mm equivalent) 3.8x Optical Zoom with Optical Image Stabilizer Technology for steady, long zoom shooting DIGIC III Image Processor with Face Detection Technology for superior image quality, fast operation and low power consumption Large 2.5-inch LCD monitor with wide viewing angle for easier on-camera viewing Up to ISO 1600 to reduce image blur and expand low-light shooting capability Improved Movie Mode with Fast Frame Rate at 60 fps QVGA (320 x 240) or 30 fps VGA (640 x 480) Print/Share Button for easy direct printing and downloading, plus ID Photo Print and Movie Print with Canon CP and SELPHY Compact Photo Printers Capacity per fully charged battery - Still Image - approx. 270 shots (NB-5L/LCD on)* approx. 600 shots (NB-5L/LCD off) Dimensions (W x H x D) - 3.52 x 2.28 x 0.99 in. / 89.5 x 58.0 x 25.1mm; 5.29 ounces
Customer Review: GREAT Point & Shoot
When we were ready to spend the money on a new digital camera, I looked at everything, but I kept coming back to the Canon PowerShot series. I think they are by far the best point and shoot cameras for the money. Our first digital camera was mostly plastic, and in shopping around, I found that many cameras were the same. In contrast, the SD800 feels solid and well-built. After a year of use and almost 2000 photos, it is no worse for the wear, except for some scratches. I think the only thing I would change is the camera's finish. It is beautiful when new, but it really shows every little scratch. It has a large, bright LCD screen AND a viewfinder. It uses a lithium-ion battery pack, and this was a MUST for me. I can't stand cameras that use AA batteries (or some other disposable battery). They are always dead when you need your camera. I've tried the NiMH rechargeables, and they just don't last long enough, so they are also dead when you need them. This Li-Ion battery is awesome. It lasts an incredibly long time between charges, and it charges faster than the Li-Ion battery in our old camera. It charges outside of the camera in a very compact charger, so if you want to keep a backup battery ready, you can. I did just that with our previous camera, but so far we haven't needed one with this camera. I charge the battery just before events at which I know we will want to use the camera, and it lasts so long on a charge that between those occasions it is always ready. The wide angle lens is a great feature. I am consistently able to get shots that other people can't get because they can't back up far enough. Perhaps my favorite feature about this camera is the control it gives you. While it is great in full auto mode (which is why you buy a point and shoot), it also offers some very useful scene modes, and it allows for manual adjustment of several settings. For example, you can adjust the exposure by up to 2 stops up or down, in 1/3 stop increments. I looked at several other PowerShot models, such as the SD850 and SD900, but I liked the layout of the controls on this camera the best. We have been very pleased with the SD800. It is fast, reliable, and takes beautiful shots. I have been pleasantly surprised with some of the shots I have been able to get with such a compact camera. I would personally love to have a digital SLR, but my wife wants something she can easily carry in her purse, and SLRs are too expensive. I have really enjoyed the creative control that this little camera allows. Perhaps the most amazing part was the price. I couldn't believe I was able to get a camera of this quality, packed with all these features, for under $200 on Amazon. That's a great deal on a great camera!
Customer Review: OVERALL EXCELLENT--BUT I STILL HAVE TROUBLE WITH BLURRY IMAGES
EXCELLENT CAMERA BUT I STILL GET MOTION BLURS WHILE SET ON 800 AND NO FLASH. IT SEEMS THAT OUR GRANDSON KEEPS MOVING AND I WAS HOPING THAT IT WOULD CAPTURE BETTER. I BOUGHT THIS CAMERA FOR OUR 30 DAY EUROPEAN TRIP, USED IT WITH A 4G SD CARD, AND IT HELD ALL THE IMAGES AND VIDEOS FOR THE ENTIRE TRIP. UNBELIEVABLE. I SELECTED THIS CAMERA FOR THE OVERALL SIZE, WEIGHT AND LCD SIZE. I HAVE LITERALLY TAKEN THOUSANDS OF IMAGES--THE RELIABILITY AND QUALITY CAN'T BE BEAT. I TEAMED THE CAMERA & SOFTWARE WITH A NEW CANON MP530 COPIER. BOTH ARE EXEMPLARY.

The built-in high definition close-up optics allow you to transfer slides into digital cameras easily with no lose in quality. You will actually enhance you pictures!
Customer Review: Piece of Plastic - Should be no stars - has one because Amazon required it
This product was a VERY BIG DIAPPOINTMnet. For a listing price of almost $100 I expected it to come with a built in, adjustable light source that could be controled. It did not. It is just a grooved black plastic tube with a plastic silde holder (that sticks) and a cheap opaque light filter. Total worth maybe $12.95.
Customer Review: Opteka HD Slide Copier
This product was purchased from 47th Street. It performed as detailed. The clarity of the picture became an issue with my Canon S5IS but only on occasion. More operator error than the product. I processed approx. 500 slides. They recommend a tripod. I concur as it makes the job somewhat easier. I now have them all digitized and am pleased with this product.

Customer Review: Another great Canon PowerShot
First of all, I've owned several Canon PowerShots, way back to the S10 when memory cards were like $50 for 32 megs. Except for one, the SD450, the image quality has been excellent on all of them. Canon's are known for their image quality and this one holds true to that. The downside to all the PowerShots prior to this one has been how awfully slow they were in taking shots, especially in low light or at night. The delay from the time you push the button to the camera actually snapping the shot could be excruciatingly slow and infuriating. I absolutely loved my S400 in every way except for how freaking slow it was in snapping shots. I couldn't tell you how many shots I have of my dog's butt/tail because I didn't properly point the camera 10 feet in front of her and take the shot just right to account for that horrible delay. Finally, a Canon PowerShot that is quick! There are some shots that aren't quite lightning fast in lower light, but this is expected and the performance is FAR better than any other Canon I've owned. The SD450 had decent performance, but the picture quality was subpar. Another problem I've always had is poor battery life. This one can take about 200 shots before needing to be recharged. Compared to my last camera (the SD450), that's about 3 times as many shots. So the battery life is much improved. On a side note, another problem I've had which most ppl would probably not notice is a few dead pixels showing up over time. Canon seems to have fixed that in the last couple generation of PowerShots and it isn't an issue with this one. I like the fact that it has no viewfinder, who uses that thing anyway? The screen is huge but the resolution is not any better than my old S400 with a tiny 1.8" screen so all shots look kind of fuzzy. I very rarely have a shot out of focus with this camera so I don't worry about it. Besides, regardless of screen size or resolution it is going to be really hard to tell if a shot is a little bit out of focus and you'd have to zoom in to tell anyway. All in all, this is a great camera and the best PowerShot I've owned to date. I'm extremely happy with in and plan to keep it for a long time.
Customer Review: The Camera I Reach For First
This is my everyday camera. It is easy to configure and fits nicely in my pocket. Canon sensors provide phenomenal clarity in all lighting conditions. I also own and love my Nikon D40, but this Canon is my go anywhere, convenient, light-weight workhorse. This is my second digital elph and I will continue to purchase Canons in the point-and-shoot form factor. The lack of a viewfinder should not be a concern for anyone considering this camera. The LCD is highly detailed and very large. Looking through a viewfinder almost seems alien to me now. I love being able to compose a shot without having the camera glued to my face. Being able to see what is happening through my eyes rather than a viewfinder, while positioning the camera is a beautiful thing.

Customer Review: Great buy
Bought this for our 14 year old daughter as a Christmas gift. Easy to use. Really great pictures. Got a great price.
Customer Review: The Best Cheap Travel Camera
I have already posted some photos on Flickr and have received some pretty positive reviews. Why I like the camera for travel because: 1. It uses AA batteries, I use rechargables. 2. The camera has a view finder which is very helpful when you are outside with the sun behind you. 3. Technology is very advanced. Does a great job finding faces and managing focus. 4. Tripod mount. 5. And I think the best price on the market for the technology and megs (10mps). 6. It's easy moving the photos to the computer.

Customer Review: love it!
This printer is small, convenient, and easy to use. It prints beautiful photos. I have used it for a couple of years now and its still working great.
Customer Review: Don't count on using your other printer paper..
The printer itself prints good photos. The biggest drawback is you have to buy the Canon replacement cartridge which comes with paper. I already have paper but I can't use it because I have no options other than to buy the way they pack. There needs to be an alternative to buy just the cartridge. I would think about it before I bought it - if you already have photo paper.

Customer Review: Fits Canon PowerShot S5 well but...
I purchased the The Opteka .35x HD² Super Wide Angle Panoramic Macro Fisheye Lens for my Canon PowerShot S5 camera and would like to share my experience: Pros: (1) it is functional with the Canon PowerShot S5 camera. (2) its contruction is excellent: it has weight, and is made from metal. (3) package includes a sturdy case and a lens adaptor. Cons: (1) lens adaptor fits losely, due to the weight of the lens, there is a feeling lens will fall off. (2) unsharpness (especially edges of pictures). (3) focusing difficult and off especially when using the macro lens only; the super macro feature of the canon PowwerShot is better. Overall; not a great buy, hence the 3 stars.
