I have always liked Canon Digital Elph cameras. I liked the 5 -Megapixel SD450 and the 7 .1-Megapixel SD550. The SD450 was smaller and I liked the way it looked better than the SD550. ...

Pros: Great quality pictures, Great battery life, Many advanced features, Great Price, includes viewfinder
Cons: For once, I really have NONE

My most recent camera purchase was the result of months of playing with the cameras at the retail store where I work, using feedback from customers that come in to tell us their own mini-reviews of the cameras, and reading online reviews. I am very ...

Pros: Tiny, convenient, great battery life
Cons: Only 3x optical zoom, flash photography needs careful adjustment

I used to be the proud owner of a Canon Ixus 55, but in the spirit of great sacrifice, gave it away to my husband who needed a compact camera. This freed me to buy another ultra-compact :) The initial research was quite disappointing. I wanted a ...

Pros: sleek body, good pictures, good flash, have viewfinder, have affordable optional accessories
Cons: meager SD card

It's Christmas and it means it's time to 'invest' your money in a gadget. This year I plead my wife to let me buy a Christmas gift for myself and here I have: a Canon SD600. The Canon Elph line has lots of similar models: SD450, SD550, SD800, SD900 ...

Pros: Canon fans will not be disappointed. Some of the new features really make a difference.
Cons: None really, but it's not a night and day improvement over the SD450.

I'm not going to go into too much detail of the basics of this camera. I have previously owned the SD450 and the basic feature set of that camera is nearly identical to the SD600. Quality of pictures is on par as well, except for the obvious bump from ...

Pros: great macro mode, viewfinder, super-compact size, feels solid, grabs excellent images.
Cons: Hmm.........battery life not excellent, manual doesn't mesh perfectly, some blue halos around bright objects (typical)

Dear camera shopper, After researching cameras for a while, I finally decided to go with the SD600. You should also read the review, "One Camera Fits ALL", which is written by a person who works with cameras and has spent a lot of time comparing ...

Pros: Image quality, construction, size, LCD screen, color and white balance modes, value for the dollar.
Cons: Flimsy battery door.

I upgraded to this camera from the SD450 about 3 months ago under an extended warranty. Perhaps just a bad seed, after about a month my SD450's LCD screen was plagued by popping pixels. For a few dollars more I was able to upgrade to the newer, ...

Pros: great pictures, nice small size
Cons: compatibility problems with Windows XP, no battery meter

Hate to trash this camera except to draw attention to a major compatibility problems with Windows XP. PROS: small size, sturdy casing, takes great pictures even on Auto which is easy to set, has more features than anyone should need in what for most ...

Pros: magnificent outcome of photos, crisp pictures
Cons: expensive, not enough photo storage for me!

I am a busy grandmother. With 7 grandchildren ages 18 months all the way up to 13, I need my pictures. And I take them often. Around the house, I must have at least 4 different cameras, from my early standard days all the way up to the holiday season, ...

Pros: Tiny, lightweight, good battery life, easy to use, nearly idiot proof!
Cons: Limited optical zoom

I got my first digital camera in 2001 as a college graduation gift. While most of my friends didn't have a digicam, and even those who did were working with 1MP pictures, I was at the bleeding edge of point-and-shoot technology with a 2MP camera with a ...

Pros: VERY easy to use. Excellent video w/sound. Viewfinder. Good battery life. Shirtpocket sized. SDcards
Cons: None. Not for the price. Still has other advanced features too! See review for concerns.

I feel so bad that I never logged on and wrote this last year. Folks, I researched this to death before I gave this to my wife for xmas in Dec 2006. Without a doubt, I made the right choice. It's outstanding. Small, Powerful, yet easy to use. And, has ...

Pros: Tiny size, good build quality, good optical quality, large LCD.
Cons: You do give up *some* optical quality & flash power in a camera this small.

I bought this camera because I wanted a pocket-size digital, but I didn't want to sacrifice image quality. I think I did well. I've been an avid amateur photographer for many year, and I can tell the difference in a second between a camera with a ...

Pros: Pocketable, good video and image quality, easy to use.
Cons: Red eye, low light noise, small SD card

For the last few years, I've enjoyed a Nikon D70 digital SLR as my main camera. I "grew up" with SLR film cameras and was enthusiastic when this new Nikon showed up. But, as my kids have gotten older, I've found the big SLR can sometimes be cumbersome ...
