  • Comparing Canon PowerShot Digital ELPH cameras


    By A10G4BPT5MGBHY on 2008-06-09
    As a travel writer I spend a lot of time at Walt Disney World, and Canon PowerShot Digital Elphs are the most common cameras I see. Families seem to love them, because they're so easy to carry and operate. About the size of a deck of playing cards, each of these "pocket cameras" really do slip right into a pants pocket, and their rectangular designs make them easy to grip. Best of all, they all take good photos. (How do I know? Because I've actually gotten to use every one of these models. Nearly every day guests ask me to take photos of them with their own cameras, which most often are Canon PowerShot Digital Elphs.)

    Here's my breakdown of the ten bestselling Digital Elph models. Any of the first six are superb choices:

    1ST PLACE: SD1100 IS
    An update to the SD1000 (see below), this 2008 8MP beauty adds image stabilization, a slightly longer zoom (38-114 mm), another MP of photo size and a small indent on the right side for a better grip. Plus it comes in colors! My daughter has a blue one and uses it every single day. During school days the image stabilization made a real difference in her on-the-bus shots. With that heavy of use hers has gotten scratched up a bit, but the marks are small and hardly noticeable.

    2ND PLACE: SD870 IS
    The ELPH to buy if you want a wide-angle lens. Slightly thicker than the SD1100 IS, this 8MP model doesn't have an optical viewfinder which makes it tough to use in bright sunlight, otherwise there's little not to love. My husband uses one as a comp camera, to compose shots for the travel guide "The Complete Guide to Walt Disney World."

    3RD PLACE: SD770 IS
    Just released in May, this 10 MP model is, in a way, an update of the SD1100 IS (see above). I rate it lower because it costs about $50 more and doesn't come in colors. On the other hand, it has a longer battery life than the 1100 and features an improved LCD screen that is very easy to view. As for photo quality, I can't tell the difference.

    4TH PLACE: SD950 IS
    There's a lot to like in this 12.1 MP camera. First off, it's gorgeous. The body, though a little thick, is titanium. An upgrade to the SD850 IS (see below), it has a 3.7x zoom lens and adds manual controls as well as the ability to stitch together panoramic images. The only reason I don't rate it higher is the price.

    5TH PLACE: SD890 IS (The camera on this page)
    Want a long zoom lens? Here's your baby, a 2008 10 MP model with a 5x zoom. Also has the new bright LCD screen and all the other 2008 Canon goodies. The most expensive Canon PowerShot ELPH.

    6TH PLACE: SD790 IS
    With the same 10 MP image sensor and 3x zoom lens as the SD770 IS, this 2008 model stands out only for its larger 3-inch LCD display and, as a result, lack of optical viewfinder. The rear controls are different, too, with a flatter design that uses fewer buttons.

    7TH PLACE: SD1000
    In my opinion there's no reason to buy this 7.1 MP model. Released in 2007, it's been replaced by the SD1100 IS (see above). The SD1000 is a fine camera but it doesn't have image stabilization, a key feature of the 2008 lineup.

    8TH PLACE: SD850 IS
    The ancestor to the SD890 IS, this 8 MP Elph combines a 4x zoom and 8 MP photo size with an image stabilizer. Every button, dial and switch has a quality feel. Slighter larger than the other models here, it is a little tougher to pop in and out of your pocket, but if you have larger hands it may be just what you are looking for.

    9TH PLACE: SD800 IS
    This 7.1 MP predecessor to the 870 doesn't focus well at its edges when set at its widest angle. Unless it's priced really cheap, get the 870 instead.

    10TH PLACE: SD750
    The 2007 PowerShot flagship offers a light meter that adjusts for facial brightness, 17 shooting modes, some first-rate movie features and red-eye correction -- features that were innovative a year ago but are common in Canon's latest models. No image stabilization; no optical viewfinder. Choose a 2008 model instead.

  • Two significant problems with an otherwise nice camera!


    By AQ5V5PJ2CU3KY on 2008-07-12
    This is the 5th Canon I've owned. I generally love their overall quality and function. I agree with most of the rave reviews about this camera, but I have TWO IMPORTANT CAVEATS that don't seem to appear.

    1st: The orientation of the LCD polarization on the screen is such that when using the camera with polarized sunglasses, you can't see an image on the LCD (in the standard, horizontal position). For every other LCD camera I've used the screen is 100% viewable with polarized sunglasses. The blanking out of the screen only occurs when you rotate the camera 90 degrees (to the vertical orientation).

    2nd: There is CONSIDERABLE "Barrel distortion" when using this long 5x optical zoom lens in the standard mode.

    Please note: I've contacted Canon Customer Service and they say both issues are not fixable and expected given the design of the camera (UGH!)

  • One fantastic camera


    By A1X5N4HQPBOPRD on 2008-05-27
    Pros: image quality, shutter speed, amazing zoom, fast power on, lots of advanced features, etc. etc. The technical specs, and performance of this camera far exceeded any expectations that I could have expected from a pocket-sized camera.

    Cons (All minor):
    1) Charging requires the removal of the battery from the camera, and it being inserted into a separate battery charger. I'm accustomed to my old sony camera, where it charges in it's own cradle.

    2) The power button itself requires some precision to activate. It's not difficult, or annoying to use, but again, I'm comparing it to my older sony camera, where it was a quick, simple flip.

    3) The menuing system can be somewhat daunting to a new or novice user. Depending what mode your camera is in will change what menu options you're presented with. Using the camera && reading the manual will help with the familiarity process.

    4) The spin dial (or whatever it's called). I have yet to see what benefit this dial has over the conventional directional pad. It's almost like a double-edged sword. On the one hand, it's quite helpful when you want to quickly flip through photos you've taken on the camera. On the other hand, it becomes challenging when trying to change scenes in scene mode, or when changing functions in the manual mode.


    Overall, I love this camera. I bought it just before going on vacation, and was continually amazed by the quality of the photos and shutter speed performance throughout the trip. While traveling on a tour bus, I was able to take crystal clear photos of the countryside landscape, while the bus was traveling at about 60mph.

  • Good camera, but...


    By A330MXTGSKIQ0Q on 2008-07-12
    beware if you are purchasing this camera because of all of the special features, such as the zoom or digital macro. I took this camera on vacation & discovered that there are some pretty strict limitations on the functionality of these features. Such as, in digital macro you must practically place the lens on what you are photographing to have it in focus...but then the item does not fit the frame properly, and is partly cut off in the final image. The zoom function RADICALLY loses focus the farther you zoom. The manual does address both these issues, but doesn't solve them, just states they are there. My basic photos of family turned out very nicely, but my close up foliage shots, zoomed shots, sunsets, etc were not as good as would be expected, especially since I was using a tripod for many of these shots. That being said, I found the camera & functions very easy to use & understand, and it's very compact & lightweight.

  • AMAZING


    By A2QAWEDXJFQIBQ on 2008-04-26
    this is the most amazing camera i have ever used. it has everything. you can take simple pictures, fast pictures with your friends and family, then you can take real art. the features are so cool. color accent and macro are my favorites! this camera would be perfect for anyone who is willing to learn how to use it. its not the most simple camera, but it is very good

  • Good feature... cheap design
    By A1OXMKTLZ4S3W3 on 2008-05-09
    First impressions of the camera is that it looks cheap. I'm not sure if this was done to save costs or lower the camera weight but the body appears cheap compared to the SD950IS. Considering it costs more I would expect them to put some more into the body. The zoom feature is nice but I rarely need to zoom in that much. I need more wide-angle if possible. I really like the circular wheel. It's not as sensitive as the touch wheel on the SD950IS which I seem to hit by accident. The power button is a bit tough to turn on/off but that's good and bad. At least it won't go on by accident in your pocket. The body is much easier to hold than the SD950IS which because of it's design feels like my fingers are blocking the lens/flashlight/sensor.

    Overall, I like the product but would expect this to cost about $50 less than the SD950IS.

  • Very nice
    By AZYUUIEDUVDQV on 2008-05-27
    I'm a Big fan of Canon products-(own a Canon Powershot Pro S5 and 20D), so you can understand why I was a bit shy about this purchase-wanting convenience without risking quality. I elected to try the Canon SD890IS because of the 10M with 5X Optical. Some talk about the surface getting "dinged" up but what's happening to mark their equipment so badly? This small but wonderful camera has all the quality and capability of my Canon Powershot Pro S5, with the exception of shooting as well in low light, but even that is not bad. And remember the reasons you purchased an elph. Others brands may have higher mega pixels, but comparing this camera with it's one slight short fall that I noticed, it out shines the other brands in low light shooting capability, does better with noise problems, and macro capability! The size is great, again, fitting the need I required-something smaller. If you are looking for quality, ease of use, than consider the Canon SD890IS.

  • Canon 890IS Review
    By A3HG9B7NAVAK7G on 2008-05-20
    Another great Canon Camera

    Pros-
    *5x Zoom gives you a closer shot than a typical point and shoot
    *Control dial is similar to iPod touch wheel
    *Selection modes arranged better (Auto, Manual, SCN, Video). The Playback is separate and easier to access
    *Start up time immediate
    *Little lag between shots
    *Optical viewfinder

    Cons-
    *Shape of camera can make it hard to hold one handed
    *Metal finish has a few scuffs already from only a weeks use
    *Somewhat Pricey


    I personally think it's a great camera for a basic traveler/camera buff who wants just a little more than a basic point and shoot. I needed it now, but it probably would have been wise to wait a few months for the price to come down.


  • Best of the best camera
    By A2226HHTZ3ILW0 on 2008-05-04
    This is the best camera I'd ever used. No need to chage any set up. Simply use "Auto" mode the camera change ISO and flash automatically. The Immage sterbilizer is excellent. (compare to Lumix I have) I turn off all light at night and shake my hand, picture turn out amazing !! There is no delay of taking each picture. It is really BEST of the BEST camera....

  • Scratch noise and power button useless
    By A1A6QUXIDE5R1P on 2008-05-06
    Camera lens makes a scratch noise everytime you change certain settings (like ISO mode, Zoom). I have used lot of canon camera's and this is the first time, I am hearing this scratching noise. Very annoying. The Power ON/Off button is very small. Even thou I do not have big hands, I had to use my fingernail to shut off the camera. The button looks very flimsy. Not happy with overall product. Camera does takes good pictures. Haven't used it a whole lot yet, as I got it recently.

  • Good little camera packed with great features
    By AEU2UE06GHKT3 on 2008-07-04
    I did a lot of research before I picked this camera; every site recommended cannon. Sony, casio all had picture problems. I picked this camera because it has a 5x optical zoom, low light feature, compactness, and the buttons are not close to one another so easy to use if you have big fingers.

    Camera is loaded with features but not all are easy to get to if you have big hands that is my one downside of this camera. Changing to some manual setting can be a challenge and finding where to review pictures as well. Did not think I would like the face detection feature but I was pleasntly surprized, it does a great job find the face except if you have sunglasses on. The faces come out great in the picture; 10 MP may be an overkill but I like sometimes like to crop and enlarge certain parts of the picture and hanve 10 MP makes sure the picture is not grainy. Lastly night pictures without the flash come out good not excellent but very good;although it does take a min to change all of the settings for low light mode. The software it comes with is okay, if you are really into photography I sugguest buy another package.

  • Excellent camera
    By APBTD58BDOL63 on 2008-07-17
    My family has purchased, over the years, several versions of this camera starting the first Elph version about five years ago. I have a Canon XT also and multiple lenses and do a lot of amateur photography. We have been really happy with our Canon equipment. It's not as flashy with all the bells and whistles of some of the other manufacturers but the quality is good and the firm reliable.

    We were going to Italy and France for two weeks and I didn't want to lug around all the XT lenses. We were determined to both carry laptops but NOT check luggage and so really needed to minimize the camera equipment. We would be on planes, trains, buses and partly on foot (we stayed three nights in Careno, Italy, a pedestrian only village in Lake Como).

    I searched through the various Elphs and picked this one for the 5x zoom and image stabilization features. We carried along the camera's USB cord to download photos to the laptop, an extra battery and the battery charger and that was it. Oh, a little plug adapter for European wall plugs (the battery charger works in Europe so you don't need a converter, just the wall adapter). The setup is much like earlier Elphs so the learning curve was easy. I didn't discover until quite late that there was a wide-angle option on the camera and wished I had realized that earlier.

    We took almost 1,000 photos with in on the trip. The quality of the photos is great, and the ability to slip the camera into a pocket such a plus. We'll be carrying this little baby along on other trips and I'll save the big one for stationary visits.

  • AMAZING camera for AMAZING price!!!
    By ACYMUG5D7DJVU on 2008-06-19
    This camera is TOTALLY AWESOME!!! :-) :-) :-) I am in LOVE!!! :-) :-) ;-) I had been using the Canon SD300, which I bought 3 years ago new (for more $), and this one BLOWS it away!!! (And fits in the same SMALL soft case, as this camera is just a bit thicker :-) ) The SD890IS is VERY easy to use and takes GREAT pictures!!! :-) :-) :-) The physical zoom range is AMAZING too!!! :-) :-) :-) The camera is nice and light to hold, and one can just point and shoot, or play with the settings; whatever you want to do :-) :-) ONE caveat; when using the "Indoor" setting, the picture can come out a bit dark if you're a bit far away from the subject of the photo, so careful with that one. (However, that is fixable in the software on one's computer.) Buy a FAST, LARGE SD card to go with, as you will be playing with this camera TONS, and the included SD card will fill up WAY too fast. (SD cards that come with cameras are ALWAYS too small.) You can buy one on Amazon here for NICE and cheap :-) I bought the Kingston Class 4, 4 GB Card and L-O-V-E it :-) )4GB SDHC Class 4 Flash Card

  • Awsome Camera
    By A2H5P6KJAOJ2BN on 2008-05-24
    It is safe to say that this camera is the best camera I have ever owned. It is simple to learn. It is compact and small enough to fit into any small space. Although it is small it packs a powerful punch. The pictures are amazing. I have taken pictures that are just as good as some top SLR cameras. The on-off button is a little small and it makes a scratching noise when you zoom, but those are minor problems. The picture quality alone makes up for its cons. I have tried other point and shoot models and brands and nothing comes close.

  • Very Pleased with Camera and Amazon
    By A1RWU35VS68ZOC on 2008-06-09
    I was looking for another Canon camera to replace my SD700IS and couldn't find anything with comparable optics in that model. I found out about the new SD890IS but couldn't find anyone who had it available online or in a retail store within 120 miles of me. Google pointed me to Amazon who I would not have thought of for buying a camera, and not only did they have it in stock, but for less than the cost of gas, plus not having to waste a day traveling, I had the camera within 24 hours. It was also $50 cheaper than the online sites who had it on back order. I'm very pleased with the camera which has all the features of my old one, plus 5X optical and 10MP which is an upgrade from the 4X & 6MP of the SD700IS. Both Macro and Telephoto images are very impressive for a camera small enough to be constantly carried around with me on my belt. It has a large enough selections of modes to handle most situations. I also like it's movie capabilities. At a commencement exercise a couple of weeks ago I was able to get some surprisingly decent pictures under the circumstances without using a flash, because I was able to use a very high ISO and could match the type of available indoor lighting. This compact camera has a lot of capabilities.

  • Amazing zoom
    By A1V1DMNIZ961XJ on 2008-06-13
    This is the 4th Canon I have owned and my 3rd Elph...
    Let me start by saying nothing can replace my SD 700 which I lost...
    4x optical zoom, buttons were all in a good location, compact camera and LIGHT!! If they made the same camera with more mega pixels I would buy it in a second (even though the 6.3MP took very crisp pictures)
    I purchased the SD 1100 and returned it 2 days later... I hated it. Zoom was awful pictures came out awful. I replaced it with a SD850
    OK camera. Much heavier than the SD700, same zoom, buttons not as convenient, very good picture quality... basically as close to the SD 700 as you can get with all the Elphs that are out there. Has an additional feature that lets you turn light specs (such as Christmas lights into stars and hearts)
    After 2 months I saw the SD 890 and had to have it...
    Pros: Camera is much lighter
    Zoom is AMAZING!!
    I do like the review button they put on the camera
    Cons: The placement of the buttons suck.
    It is hard to turn the camera on
    I don't like were the wheel is places
    Body is larger than SD 700

    All in all any of the above mentioned Elphs are GREAT. They take pictures a lot faster than any other camera. There is hardly any delay. The pictures are crisp and the colors are vibrant. I have only had the 890 for a few days and I am hoping it will live up to the SD 700 standards.


  • A Great Camera!
    By A1JX11VVLS4IP4 on 2008-07-17
    I needed a new camera, and using the info on Canon's website, I decided between the 890IS and the 720IS. Because this camera wasn't yet available, I went to Walmart and bought the 720. It was a huge waste of money and time. It sucked power out of the batteries like no other camera I've used. After reading a few reviews on Amazon and other camera websites, I took the plunge and paid $349.99 for it. It went down to about $306 within the first 30 days of purchase, and Amazon refunded me the difference from the $349.99.

    This camera takes EXCELLENT photos! There is a bit of a learning curve, but the book is very helpful. The 5X zoom is great, and the macro is superb. I bought the high-power flash to accompany it, and I feel like I'm set for any situation. The image stabilization is also fantastic. I took photos of a train moving south while we drove north and still got great pics. You know how hard it is with kids sometimes, but this camera captures them well.

    People have complained a bit about the on/off button, but it's just a matter of getting used to. The camera is really small, but packed with power. I still have to explore some of the other features, but thus far, it's definitely worth every penny. You won't be disappointed!





  • Fine Camera
    By A4RTWNSZWWDVY on 2008-07-29
    I purchased the Canon SD890IS about a month ago, after my Olympus Stylist 400 was stolen. I read many reviews, but I have had a Canon 35mm camera for years, and know its reputation. This camera does not disappoint.
    I find it takes great pictures, and so far the image stabilization feature has given me excellent and sharp pictures, even at low light levels.
    The camera has many more features than I will ever use, but I particularly like the large screen and the optical viewfinder. If I were to offer any criticism, I would like to see the instruction manual be enlarged (it is 230 pages) with more instructions on how to use the advanced features.
    Nicely built, small size, and the battery really lasts. The 5X optical zoom is a great feature.

  • The best camera around!
    By A34KW3Y4EKZ73E on 2008-05-27
    I have the 550 also, but this new 890is is simply the best.
    It is a true 5x optical that is really amazing.
    The movie mode is also the best, there is no need to have a video camera as it is so good!

  • Canon SD890IS
    By A23IF76T5G0R8T on 2008-05-27
    I bought this camera to take on a trip to China. It was great. The zoom goes to 20x and the motion stabilization means that the pictures are very clear - no blurring due to a bouncing or moving hand.
    I took snaps in a theater w/o flash and they came out clear and bright.
    Auto focus processing is about .5 secs. Image storage processing can take about 3 to 5 secs.
    The battery is good for about 250 pictures. I didn't test for movie duration.
    I'm very pleased with this camera.
    My girlfriend bought the SD750 and she is jealous of the pictures my camera takes.


  • GREAT Camera with a SLIGHT UI Issue
    By A2T4D5J0KOKRGT on 2008-07-16
    This is one of the best cameras that I have ever laid my hands on. It is very simple to use and has a LOT of features that you can play with to create great creative images.

    I like the fact that it has an optical viewfinder. The optical viewfinder is very useful when you are outdoor and the sun is bright. It will be very hard to view ANY LCD screen in this condition. Because it has the optical viewfinder, the LCD screen is slightly smaller than most of its competitors; it only has 2.5" compared to 3" on some other cameras.

    The slight UI issue that I have is the LAG that the wheel has. If you turn it too slow, it does not change the option or change the option VERY slowly. But, if you turn the wheel too fast, there is a LAG before the option changes. So, sometimes, you need to go back and forth a few times to get to the option that you want.

    Oh yeah... The multiple frames shot is only available WITHOUT flash. This is true for most point-and-shoot cameras.

    In conclusion, this is an excellent compact camera. I carry this camera wherever I go. And, the battery life on this camera is not too shabby at all. The longest that I have ever experienced with any compact point-and-shoot cameras.


  • fantastic camera
    By A2IA6X8ZE9NJ3I on 2008-07-17
    This PowerShot SD890IS is fantastic! I took several pictures while we were driving on the high way at 75 MPH, and the pictures turned out to be fine, just like I took them when I was standing on the ground. Also it offers several special modes which are very useful. I can't imagine that it could take clear pictures of firework and sunset! I bought a SD600 before, that one couldn't take pictures of firework at all. But SD890IS is great! All most like a professional camera!
    One disadvantage is that the battery runs out very fast, I have to recharge it everyday. And if I choose the largest size of the photos, the files are too big and fill up the memory card very soon. I had to change the picture size to M2.

  • Great Camara
    By A2L345718WB8ZI on 2008-05-30
    I am not camara savy so I needed a camara that is easy to operate. This one fits the bill. It takes beautiful pictures, its small enough to fit in my pocketbook, and its easy to operate. What more can a person ask for.

  • Tiny, but Powerful
    By A1K8K37UXUN7JN on 2008-06-16
    The Canon Powershot SD890IS is a tiny camera, but a very powerful one. It makes wonderfully clear photos with little effort. It makes superb pictures with the Macro setting. Telephoto shots are good and clear, thanks to the great Image Stabilization. I even get really good images of moving vehicles, thanks to the Motion Detection. I charged the battery when I got it, and it is still going strong after I have taken at least a hundred photos. The SD890IS is a fine camera. I love it!

  • Great camera!
    By A3TK8Z7UE41RTU on 2008-08-11
    I wanted a camera that could capture pictures of my 2 year old son in action. Although its not quite as fast as I want it, its way better than the 2 year old sony camera that I was using. The image stabilizer really helps with my shaky hand and the face detection thing is pretty cool too. I'm totally a novice photographer, so I just wanted a basic camera that takes nice pictures...and this does the trick for me. The only minor issues I have with the camera are the numerous functions that its capable of. Being that I'm too lazy to read the manual, when I accidentally hit buttons that changes a setting, I'm usually at a lost as to how to fix it. The buttons are also a bit awkward, so for someone with big hands, this might be somewhat difficult to use. Overall, great camera for the price!

  • Out of the box AMAZING!
    By A3EQRH57UHYXB on 2008-09-06
    I have a 20D as well, but i like to keep a pocket camra for quick and easy use. I upgraded from a 3.2mp Olympus.

    Within 10 seconds of taking this baby out of the box, i knew i had a winner! The start up time is great, image quality is superb, and the video quality is jaw-dropping amazing!

    I was torn between this unit, and the 770 i think? The different being the other one had the 3" screen i really really wanted, but lacked zoom. This unit has a slightly smaller screen but the zoom really makes up for it. Id have hated myself if i was limited to a 3x optical and no digital zoom.

    Anyhow, amazing product ... buy it!

  • worked for 45 days!
    By AZ0KMEF9Y1WGA on 2008-10-05
    I was really impressed with the photos I look with this camera. The image stabilization works really well and the presets are worth using. I have a two year old so the size is nice and easy to use. My first impression of the camera itself was average. It seemed like the housing was not the same quality as my previous canon and the on off button was very difficult to use. But after only 45 days of owning it (using it maybe a handful of times) the lens has stuck open and extended! Lens error! I have since heard this is a common problem... well now I wait for amazons return department. I think I would get a different camera this next time.

  • Solid, reliable digital camera

    This is my third Canon. It works great. I'm really pleased with my pictures and the longer zoom capability. I like the larger screen. My only complaint is the "on/off" switch. It's difficult to use.

  • Great Camera

    I was looking for a small camera that took video also for my vacation, and i found this one. It replaced my old Kodak DX4530. It was great, i was able to carry it in my purse and it had all these great features.

    Since i went to the Grand Canyon i wanted to get some panaromics too, it has stich assist which worked out great. I really loved all the pictures and videos that i took, and no bulky video camera to carry around.

    I bought it 7 days before i went on vacation and i was worried that it wouldn't come in time because i didn't use express shipping, but Amazon got it here in 3 days.

  • Too bad it broke after three months....

    I love this camera! However, after owning it for three months, it no longer works. Amazon.com was not at all helpful in this process. I had to send it back to Canon for repair, which will take 3 weeks or more.

    I am disapointed with the quality of the product, but when it was working, it did work fine.
